Summary: Emergency Medical Technicians-Basic (EMT-B) respond to emergency calls to provide efficient and immediate care to the critically ill and injured, and to transport the patient to a medical facility.
After receiving the call from the dispatcher, the EMT-B drives the ambulance to address or location given, using the most expeditious route, depending on traffic and weather conditions. The EMT-B must observe traffic ordinances and regulations concerning emergency vehicle operation. Upon arrival, the EMT-B parks the ambulance in a safe location to avoid additional injury. Prior to initiating patient care, the EMT-B will also "size-up" the scene to determine: that the scene is safe, the mechanism of injury or nature of illness, the total number of patients, and to request additional help, if necessary. The EMT-B determines the nature and extent of illness or injury and establishes priority for required emergency care.
