4.0 out of 5 stars Good Game.........Unless you're a medic.
This game is loaded with the morbid humor most medics are used to hearing. The only thing missing are people in the background screaming and crying for you to do something. Graphics are great! But, if you are a medic you will soon be a little miffed at the little things. Makers should have had 50 or so medics play it before releasing it. The lay person, however, will...

3.0 out of 5 stars Mediocre.
This game was informative as to what paramedics go through on a daily basis. You do learn some aspects on first aid when playing this game. That is what I was expecting while going through this simulation. While playing, there is a time limit for each patient, becuase you have to wrap up before that time limit is up, or the patient is going to die. All in all, it was a...

1.0 out of 5 stars NOT FOR A MEDIC OR MEDIC "WANNA-BE", March 23, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: 911 Paramedic (CD-ROM)
The medicine in this game is VERY poor. A non-medic may enjoy the game play but anyone with even a basic training level will be frustrated at the poor techniques and practices it presents (like being rewarded for using a c-collar but penalized for using a backboard on the same patient). As a paramedic instructor, I was hoping to use this game to liven up certain lectures but it just demonstrates too many blatantly wrong medical practices. Save your money.

I just got this game out of curiosity and thought it may be fun to play paramedic for a little while. If you were thinking about becoming a medic, you just might want this game.

My husband thinks it is great!

5.0 out of 5 stars OUTSTANDING, March 7, 2002
This review is from: 911 Paramedic (CD-ROM)
I've really enjoyed Legacy's efforts in the Emergency Room series, and this game picks up on their successes. I really enjoyed the gameplay in 911 Paramedic. I would only make 2 suggestions for the game.
1) They need to modify the equipment usage levels some. EMT-Basics cannot use an EKG for example.

2)I hope that they release further incidents for this game. Otherwise, gameplay is quite limited after you work on each of the patients.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad Medicine, July 27, 2004
= Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: 911 Paramedic (CD-ROM)
We purchased 911 Paramedic as an introduction to the medical field for our son. Sadly, while the creators of this program had good intentions, they don't know medicine. Diagnoses and treatment protocol are out of wack. Too bad. They could have had a really good thing if they had done their homework.
