It's the only choice 4 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This is the textbook that all EMT-B classes use, it's really the only choice you have. I found the companion study guide very helpful for studying. The 9th edition includes a CD and the on-line resources were great too. I especially like the chapter on Terrorist response, rather interesting comment about society and the times we live in.

Dispatcher Review 4 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

This is a great book for review of the sections of each test. Although, the actual test I took had completely different tests with the exception of the listening test, the book was still very helpful in preparing me. I think the book should offer a few more practice tests than just one for each section. Overall, it's a great preparation book.

Opinion Dispatcher 3 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

Generally good information; specifically not real close to the testing I went through. However, I would recommend.

Emergency Dispatch 3 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

This book offers examples of several types of questions with sample tests. It would better serve the reader to be a little less wordy and offer a few more testing examples.

Dissappointed 3 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

In my case, the test that was administered was not even close to what is in this book. I completed the testing on a computer with a headset.
The items were shipped in a timely manner.

Too much other stuff, Not enough Exam help 3 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I felt that the majority of the book was just explaining things other than 911 Operator Examinations. I was about half way through before I found anything useful.

Editorial Review:

Two full-length model exams and coverage of the job interview process with all-important personality evaluation.

Editorial Review:

The official publication of the Air & Surface Transport Nurses Association, this comprehensive and timely text is the standard reference for flight nurses and other health professionals involved in medical transportation. Its new title reflects the role and presence of not only flight or air nurses, but also that of surface transport nurses. The contemporary, collaborative focus in each unit emphasizes the role of all team members. Each clinical chapter consistently covers epidemiology, anatomy and physiology and/or pathophysiology, and specific conditions - with case studies and notes for assessment and treatment

  • Comprehensive discussions are presented for diseases or injuries commonly encountered in flight and ground nursing - including pathophysiology, assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation.
  • Detailed coverage of management issues is offered - including scene management, communication, safety, disaster management/triage, quality management, and marketing/public relations.
  • Competencies for each clinical chapter identify key components to providing effective patient care.
  • Case studies are presented at the end of each clinical chapter to help readers apply the information presented.
  • Content emphasizes practical application to prepare the reader for practice.
  • A discussion of the role of air and ground nurses as members of a team is provided, and the roles of the various team members are differentiated so they can more effectively collaborate in patient care and transport.


  • Each section stresses the collaborative focus that emphasizes the role of all team members.
  • Content meets the educational and reference needs of readers dedicated to expert care delivery in transport, including paramedics, physicians, respiratory therapists, pilots, mechanics, and communication specialists.
  • A new unit on the History and Current Role of Ground and Air Transport Nurses includes chapters on the History of Patient Transport (Chapter 1), Preparation for Practice (Chapter 2), Certification (Chapter 3), Members of the Transport Team (Chapter 4), and Research and Quality Management (Chapter 5).
  • The new unit on Patient Care Issues includes three new chapters that cover legal, ethical, and family issues to provide the reader with a better understanding of the different situations they might encounter in the field.
  • The Management unit features a new chapter on Accreditation for Air and Ground Medical Transport.
  • The Selected Patient Populations unit conveniently groups discussions of pregnant, neonatal, and pediatric patients.
  • A new appendix describes international patient transport and the goals of other transport associations.

Excellent Reinforcer 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I thought the AAOS EMT-B workbook was an excellent reinforcer of the skills learned in the EMT-B course.

Study guide 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

The test is HARD!!! This study guide allowed me to hone in on the chapters I needed more help with. Get it in the "package" with your textbook to save some money.

As Good As it Gets 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Comprehensive and in depth coverage of Basic EMT instruction. I am instructed at a public safety training facility in New York and these texts are the core of our curricula. The "You are the provider" and EMT-B Tips insets and bold print volcabulary in each chapter tie you to real life scenario vinettes; a great tool to help take the covered material in each section of text "to the street".

Emergency care book 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

This was a required book for me. Its a great book for EMTB students. Has great pictures, its easy to learn from.

Great if they send it. 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 1 people found this review helpful.

Emergency Care and Transportation of the Sick and Injured is a great text. The picture on this Amazon ad was of the text I wanted and the reviews were too. The trouble is that I was sent the workbook instead of the text I thought I ordered. Looking more closely at the ad, I see that way down the page it is described as "workbook edition". This ad is very misleading!

Editorial Review:

SOS! With this well-known international distress call (it stands for Save Our Souls), many a stranded survivor of disaster has attempted to spread the word that help is needed--fast. And whether survivors are at sea, buried in earthquake rubble, lost on mountains, or trapped in a crashed car, remarkable rescue workers--human and animal--are equipped to rush in and save souls. Dorling Kindersley is renowned for its stunning reference books; Rescue is no exception. This guide to the thrilling world of emergency rescue service is chock-full of compelling photos of real incidents, rescue techniques, protective clothing, vehicles, and supplies. Informative text instructs readers how to survive until help arrives (it's not a comprehensive how-to, though) and allows them a peek at the lives of firefighters, mountain rescue teams, lifeguards, wartime rescuers, and natural and environmental disaster workers. From historical events (the Chernobyl meltdown, the Oklahoma City bombing, the sinking of the Titanic) to futuristic technologies in the works (mine-detector robots, battery-operated personal beacon devices for people at sea, radar flashlights that allow police to "see" through walls in a hostage situation), rescue situations and solutions never fail to fascinate. (Ages 9 and older) --Emilie Coulter

Editorial Review:

Specialised units for critically ill children and infants are concentrated in the major hospitals. This invaluable practical guide covers the management of children in a critical condition who have been admitted to a general hospital and will need safe transfer to a special unit. With tertiary care becoming ever more centralised, the need for clear information on safe transport is becoming increasingly important.
