Advanced EMS Anatomical Workshop

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  28 June 2012

Abstract

Due to time constraints, most Emergency Medical Services (EMS) certification and continuing education programs offer no more than an overview of the principles of anatomy, physiology, and pathology. In an effort to strengthen the EMS professionals' knowledge of these concepts, an EMS Anatomical Workshop was developed. This workshop is a day-long program consisting of lectures and laboratory sessions covering anatomy, physiology, and pathology of major body systems. The workshop has been successful, and its fourth offering has been completed. This program could serve as a model for areas that desire to enhance the education of their EMS providers.
