PATIENT ASSESSMENT Review for EMTs

Patient assessment is one of the main lessons of EMT school. Patient assessment is broken up into five main sections: Scene size up, primary assessment, history taking, secondary assessment, and reassessment.

This patient assessment lecture breaks down exactly what you need to know for EMT class. The patient assessment review will help with your NREMT exams, NREMT practicals and classroom quizzes.

I look forward to you fully understanding patient assessment after watching this video.

I’ll be honest, I’m only 15 but want to get my head in the game super early so that I know what I may be getting myself into in the future. Thanks for what you do man!

I’ve been trying about 8 different ways to study and learn today. I ran into your video and learned everything in less than 20 minutes! Thank you!

As someone with a learning disability, this is by far one of the easiest videos to follow along to! Will defenitely reccomend you to anyone trying to learn this stuff!

Evan, this is by far the best video you have provided for us. I’ve been having trouble with assessment NREMT questions and which term falls into which section of the assessment and this is just a grand slam on what I need to know 💯 This absolutely ties up loose ends and technical to the bone. Thank you so much for all that you do for us Evan. I can’t wait to finally kill the NREMT 🤙🏾

After I got my heart saver certification My current career was run over the road truck driver but now forced off the road on medical always having a medical knowledge now I just want to learn to be better as a lay person and maybe one day I may be able to get into an EMT program. Thanks Evan. Joining your program soon.

Don't forget to consider holding C spine during your primary assessment, critical factor on the test

I skipped this part in my online emt and just had skills days. I had 2 days (medical and skills days) to learn patient assessment before my nremt testing day. I BARELY passed. This is obviously so important so don't put it off!!!!

[wreckless]

One thing that really caught me out was getting SAMPLE after everything

Make sure you have ALS in route for basically everything in your test, PMS before and after splinting, and always treat shock management

[jacobyates]

Thx for these videos I decided to switch my career right before highschool graduation and have no early medical training. It's really helping me get a early start

[rosemadder]

Omg my practical is tomorrow!! Just 11 hours from now 😅 this is my last minute cram sesh 😂 I’d like to see someone do a video framing the questions in a good way that we ask the test giver. Like “can I assume the airway is patent” or “what’s the MOI or NOI?” Or “I’m going to check radial pulses and skin color and condition” like how it’s verbalized during the test. That seems to be where a lot of confusion stems from in my class.

[monikadonison]

So clear. You’re videos provide so much help! And I love the extra “real life” tips.

[roland.j.ruttledge]

Back to basics. Fantastic, great video. Many thanks UK
