Students will perform assessments and invasive procedures in a ???real world??? environment. Students will experience firsthand the skills and knowledge required to act in the capacity of a Paramedic. This course also continues the clinical internships as well.This is part four of a four-part series as set forth by the National EMS Education Standards.
