Customer Reviews

Decent text, comprehensive information.

Not a bad text. Includes pertinent info and is organized pretty well. My instructor (with 20 years of experience as a medic and firefighter) prefers another author, however.

Emergency Care AHA

This is an excellent book and some of the questions actually appeared on the national registry exam. Great investment.

Good Investment

If you are an EMT you will need good bibliography to learn and understand the diferent skills in your daily job. This book provides you a good source of information in a very easy way to understand. The diferent graphics and pictures are very usefull and help you in your trianing. I have an older edition (5th I think) and when this edition cames out I bought it and I don't regret I highly recomend it.

The Best so Far!

As a future EMT-B student I wanted to buy some books prior to my course beginning. I bought Mosby's, Aehlert's, and Brady's books. I finally got to this one (being the last I was to read), and have to say this is the best Ive seen so far. With clear concise text, and abundance of knowledge, real life situations, and amazing pictures (which Aehlert's has almost none of), I must say that this book is not only the most informative, but is also the most user friendly. It has a great index, glossary, and the anatomy pictures are cut outs of REAL humans. I mean it just doesn't get any better than this. I just found out a few days ago this is the book my instructor is going to use, and for a good reason!

This EMT book is the best, hands down.

This EMT Emergency book ROCKS! As an EMT student, I find this book to surpass all other EMT books in print. The whole class loves the book as well. I recommend getting the, self study Workbook that accompanies the textbook. Without a doubt, it wins a Gold Metal and a Five Star Award for outstanding publication and instruction into the field of the EMT - Basic.
