EMT Skills: Patient Assessment - Medical

In this video Firefighter/EMT Cody covers the Patient Assessment - Medical skill sheet. The sheet IMA uses is specific to our program, but the information should apply to any skill sheet that follows the traditional NREMT format.

For more practice we have a number of videos showing students going through medical assessment scenarios. Check those out to see this skill sheet in action!
