EMS-2558 - EMS Field Practicum III (5)

Prerequisite: EMS 2556

Students participate in a variety of pre-hospital based experiences to develop the necessary competencies to properly perform the various cognitive, psychomotor and affective domain skills utilized by EMS providers. Students perform patient care with real patients under direct observation of approved preceptors. This course evaluates the students’ field skills as well as determines if they possess the appropriate knowledge and attitudes required of entry-level EMS providers. The final synthesis of all didactic content, psychomotor skills, and clinical instruction into the ability to serve as an entry level paramedic is considered during the field internship phase of the program. The field internship is not an instructional, but rather an evaluative, phase of the program. A major objective of practicum experience is to apply classroom theory and laboratory skill development to the work environment.
