(The) Paramedic Companion, Arthur Hsieh, Kevin Boone, McGraw-Hill, 2008
The Paramedic Companion: A Case-based Worktext is a nontraditional workbook that can be used throughout the paramedic curriculum. Although it is tightly integrated with the main textbook, The Paramedic Companion goes beyond the simple “review and test” approach of most workbooks.
Instead, it supports the student’s exploration of the art and science of prehospital medicine with creative learning tools, images, and even video to better explain concepts and techniques. It speaks clearly and directly to the paramedic student.
Key features include progressive case scenarios with questions and answers; active learning exercises; multiple-choice quizzes; Need to Know narrative explanations; Step-by-Step illustrated skills; Street Secrets; full-color illustrations; and Problem-based Learning Cases.
In addition, multimedia tools on the accompanying DVD create an educational space rich with information. The DVD includes Step-by-Steps in Shockwave format; Skill Sheets; audio glossary; chapter-by-chapter quiz bank; A&P animations; drug administration animation; drug flashcards; and games and exercises, including "I Spy."
