EMT-Paramedic: Self-Assessment Exam Prep, Review Manual (Prentice Hall SUCCESS Series) Review

EMT-Paramedic: Self-Assessment Exam Prep,  Review Manual (Prentice Hall SUCCESS Series)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
First of all, no Paramedic review workbook I have seen is the best. That is why I can't give the book 5 stars. Each review book has its ups and downs. I recommend buying two different workbooks to study (especially for Nat'l Reg.)
This workbook is a perfect addition if you have the Brady text series. There are references to the page/book numbers in the answer section. This is helpful so that you can review the sections in which you feel you need more help.
The answers to the questions in the workbook are sufficient, especially because the reference pages are provided. However, in studying for Nat'l Reg, the answers could be better. I wish that the answers would include the rational behind why the other choices are wrong.
A downside is that the workbook goes into great detail. It has 56 chapters, including this sampling: ethics, gastroenterology, airway management, documentation, spinal trauma, neonatology, & HazMat. (If you are studying for NREMT-P test, you don't need to go into that great of detail.) But, if you are studying for quizzes in school, it could be helpful.
The book includes a CD, which is an excellent addition. It contains 2 180-question tests, which are in two different formats. One down side to the CD exams is that the answers aren't as good as they are in the workbook. The CD also contains other helpful information, such as a glossary and D.O.T. objectives.

Emergency Care Workbook, 11E Review

Emergency Care Workbook, 11E
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I found this workbook very helpful in preparing for my course exams. It consists of matching, multiple-choice, and short-answer questions for each chapter in the corresponding textbook. I do agree with a previous reviewer that there are some inaccuracies in the questions/answers, but in my experience some problems in this regard are almost always present with this kind of workbook. My main complaint is that sometimes the answers weren't in the book or contradicted the book. But that was a rarity. Overall, I'd buy this workbook if you're using its companion text. It will almost certainly help you. And yes, I passed my national exam the first time out. Good luck to you!

Taigman's Advanced Cardiology (In Plain English) Review

I have been teaching 12-lead cardiology classes for paramedics now for several years. This book has been one of only three I recommend to my students. It is best if you already have a background in 12-lead ECG's for infarct recognition. The text will take you to the next level. I highly recommend this publication

I have used this book, as have all of my nursing colleagues, through its various editions for many many years and cannot recommend it more highly. Dr. Meltzer was a pioneer -- and a genius -- in coronary care and his contributions to the field are enormous. This book, called the "yellow bible" by many faithful followers, is beautifully written, easy to read and understand and very thorough. If you are a coronary care nurse, this book must be part of your library!!
