EMT

EMT covers the essential skills and knowledge required for emergency medical technicians to provide critical care in emergency situations.

Practical Applications

Hands-On BLS and Airway Management

Practicing Life-Saving Skills

EMTs train regularly in CPR, using AEDs, and managing airways to keep their skills sharp and effective.

Airway Management Tools

  • Oropharyngeal Airway (OPA): Keeps the tongue from blocking the airway in unconscious patients.
  • Bag-Valve-Mask (BVM): Delivers breaths to patients who can't breathe on their own.

Teamwork in BLS

Working as a team ensures high-quality CPR and smooth use of equipment.

Continuous Practice

Regular drills help EMTs stay calm and confident during real emergencies.

Examples

  • Using a bag-valve-mask to ventilate a non-breathing patient during a training exercise.

  • Practicing CPR compressions on a mannequin with classmates.
