Making a Gold Standard Even Better
Comprehensive development plan Extensive market feedback from Tenth Edition reviews Evaluation of competitors Focus groups Survey of large sampling of EMT educators

National Survey of EMT Educators
Is the table of contents logical and comprehensive? Does the order of the sections follow your course structure? Any content or skills we should add? Any we should remove? Is the reading level appropriate? How can we improve the art program? How can we improve the instructor and student resources? Overall, how can we ensure this is the best content available?
10
National EMS Education Standards
Table of contents closely follows the structure of the EMS Education Standards modules Some modules call for less content than others at this level Modules are combined when appropriate for level For example, the Public Health module is covered in Chapter 2, Workforce Safety and Wellness
11
Current Medical Content
The Eleventh Edition has been carefully correlated to the latest standards and expert guidance documents, including: National EMS Education Standards National Model EMS Clinical Guidelines National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians’ Psychomotor Examination Skill Sheets Prehospital Trauma Life Support, 8th edition (NAEMT, American College of Surgeons’ Committee on Trauma) 2015 ECC/CPR Guidelines
12
Targeted Reinforcement: Patient Assessment
One single, comprehensive chapter A single, integrated process Presented the way it is practiced it in the field Medical, Trauma, and Special Populations chapters Systematic format: Chapters use same structure and color coding Makes the book very easy to use and understand Constantly reinforces material presented in previous chapters Patient Assessment content focused on condition-specific information
13
Clear Application to Real-World EMS
EMT students need to know why in addition to how Scenarios provide Genuine context for how knowledge is used in field Opportunities for students to apply knowledge early in program
14
Compelling Art Program
Approximately 40% of photos and art updated
15
Skill Drills Important psychomotor skills and procedures
Detailed step-by-step presentation within chapter text Mirrored by a visual summary
