EMT-P 110 - Paramedic Clinical I

2 credits (COREQUISITES: EMT-P 101)

The paramedic "clinicals" provide opportunities for students to apply what they are learning in their classroom and laboratory in a controlled clinical environment. The clinical courses provide a vital link between the classroom and real-world patients. Students work under the direct supervision of assigned clinical preceptors in a variety of settings, but primarily in the emergency department. Clinical experiences are taken concurrently with paramedic classroom work during respective semesters of the program. Students are required to spend 8 hours per week in the clinical setting. (F)
