EMT 102 Emergency Medical Technology II

This course builds on the knowledge and experience acquired in EMT 101. This course is designed to provide the education needed by Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) to administer patient care in the out-of-hospital setting. It covers all techniques of emergency care presently considered within the responsibilities of the EMT as well as all operational aspects of the job. This course includes the following topics: medical emergencies, infants and children, and operations. Demonstration, practice, and clinical and field experience are carefully integrated with the didactic portion. Some Saturday sessions are required. This course is offered for the second half of the semester and must be taken with EMT 101.
