PARA 109 - Paramedic Field II


2 credits (8 field hours)
This course provides the paramedic student with a second field experience of EMS operations in conjunction with a PA Department of Health Advanced Life Support Service. Under the direct supervision of a field preceptor, the student will continue to integrate assessment, technical, communication, and critical thinking skills developed in PARA Field I into paramedic practice in field operations. Assessment and treatment interventions within the paramedic’s scope of practice are based on the PA Bureau of EMS Protocols. Students are required to provide documentation of all experiences. Since this is the final opportunity for field experience in the program, additional hours may also be scheduled if necessary for skill acquisition in order to meet the Paramedic Program Outcomes.
