Editorial Review: Product Description: MEET THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO MAKE A DIFFERENCE Emergency Medical Response Teams. Whether in the air, on the road, or in the ER, every day they face split-second decisions--and one false move can mean the difference between life and death. Here are gripping true-life stories: A seventeen-year-old climber tumbles fifty feet to an isolated ledge, his only hope the emergency helicopter hovering overhead. A six-year-old boy lies in cardiac arrest as an ambulance rushes him to the hospital. An eighty-seven-year-old man pulled from a car at the bottom of a frozen pond shows no signs of life. . . . Tragedy, surprise, sometimes even humor--there is all that and more in TRAUMA CENTER, where the true experience of emergency medicine begins. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Great EMS BookThis book was an EXCELLENT book. You never know what's going to happen next. It puts you at the scene and puts you in the shoes of the EMT's living their lives. A must read. Rating: - Excellent Book!I thought that this book was really great! If you are an EMT or looking to become an EMT or just have a general interest in Emergency Medicine I highly recommend this book. I have already read this book as well as EMT race for life and I am currently reading Rescue Alert. All of them I think are great! In association with Amazon.com | |
