2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it, June 3, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Critical Care Paramedic (Hardcover)
I've been in EMS for over 20 years and when I took the CCEMT-P class I bought this book to read "ahead" before the class. The book read like any Paramedic textbook and did VERY little to prepare me for the UMBC CCEMT course, it had little to no correlation to the material taught in the course (the book is not recommended by UMBC nor does the book claim to be a part of that course, but the name indicated to me that it would be relevant). It doesn't go into enough detail of the "advanced" parts of the CC scope and spends a lot of time reviewing things that if you haven't already mastered you probably shouldn't be preparing for certification at this level.

2.0 out of 5 stars An elementry crtical care book, August 15, 2009
By 
This review is from: Critical Care Paramedic (Hardcover)
This is a good book to peek into the world of critical care. It's also a good book to give you insight into your patient conditions based on medications etc. Not worth mucj for reviewing for FP-C or CCEMT-P.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book, just doesn't successfully meet its intentions., January 3, 2007
By 
This review is from: Critical Care Paramedic (Hardcover)
This book was recently used as the primary text for my CCEMT-P course. While I believe this is a well written book, I feel it should be more appropriately used as a pre-course introduction to critical care in the pre-hospital and out-of-hospital setting, or as a tool to put nursing critical care textbooks into the EMS perspective. I feel this is a great book for any EMS provider to own and will gladly add it to my library instead of reselling it, I just feel that it poorly meets its intended purpose as a primary text for pre-hospital providers attending a critical care course.
