Are You Setting Expectations As A Student?
As an EMS student, it’s important to set the expectations for a clinical rotation with your preceptors. Whether you are a EMT or paramedic student, letting the preceptor know what you want to accomplish that day helps them know what to expect from you.
This way when you are on a call, everyone is on the same page and knows what each is doing. So if you need to get intubation help, drug calculations practice or even master blood pressures, be sure to tell your preceptor what you haven’t done yet or need help with. This communication will go a long way when the time comes for that skill to be done.

Doing well in EMT class and preparing for the NR EMT Exam
I get a lot of questions from students who want help passing the EMT Exam. I think the best advice I can offer is to pay attention in class and do your own workbook. I'm amazed at how many people leave the workbook to the last minute and then copy the answers from someone else.
