The Scenario
This station is designed to test your ability to perform a patient
assessment of a victim of multi-system trauma and “voice” treat all
conditions and injuries discovered. You must conduct your
assessment as you would in the field including communicating with
your patient. You may remove the patient‟s clothing down to shorts
or swimsuit if you feel it is necessary. As you conduct your
assessment, you should verbalize everything you are assessing.
Clinical information not obtainable by visual or physical inspection
will be given to you after you demonstrate how you would normally
gain that information. You may assume that you have two EMTs
working with you and that they are correctly carrying out the verbal
treatments you indicate. You have ten (10) minutes to complete
this skill station. Do you have any questions?
