Tutorial area suggestion list

[EMT City Administrator]

Please put your requests for tutorials here.

Requests could be anything from questions newbies ask, to something that you think everyone would benefit from.

Hopefully, our members will take the list and make a tutorial on it.

We were having a discussion a few days ago about a person having trouble starting IV's maybe we could do some tricks of the trade to tutor them?

What format do you want the tutorials to be in?

I will not be holding anyone to any specific format. Whatever works to get the message across.

How about tutorials about what to look for when searching for a job, such as benefits, salary, built in OT, retirement, opportunity for career development or paid schooling, negotiating tactics, differences between private IFT, third service, fire based, so on and so forth. I'll post some stuff in the general EMS discussion forum. Move it to the tutorials if you feel so inclined.

How about tutorials regarding PCR writing? That seems to be a common cause for concern with those new to the field. I wish that I had such a guide when I was starting out. There ought to be seperate sections for IFT, 911, refusals, and suggestions for wording (catch phrases, disclaimers and such) to deflect liability should you be required to testify in court.

How about a section for general educational/informational powerpoints? Would be nice to get feedback from the city before having to present one.

Post it in the downloads area.

Here's a couple ideas for tutorials:

Cardiology

Pharmacology

I know I'm not the only person that's having problems getting a handle on it, especially when it seems like it's just being 'skimmed over' in school!
