Intermediate: Emergency Care and Transportation of the Sick and Injured is the only text available that addresses the objectives in both the 1985 and 1999 EMT-Intermediate National Standard curricula. This text bridges the gap between the two curricula while still keeping them separate, making it user friendly for any instructor or student. Intermediate is the core of a teaching and learning system with features that reinforce and expand on the essential information and make information retrieval a snap.

With more than 38,000 members, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (aaos.org or orthoinfo.org), is the premier not-for-profit organization that provides education programs for orthopaedic surgeons and allied health professionals, champions the interests of patients and advances the highest quality of musculoskeletal health. Orthopaedic surgeons and the Academy are the authoritative sources of information for patients and the general public on musculoskeletal conditions, treatments and related issues.More than one in four Americans have bone or joint health problems, making them the greatest cause of lost work days in the U.S. When orthopaedic surgeons restore mobility and reduce pain, they help people get back to work and to independent, productive lives. Orthopaedic surgeons keep this "Nation in Motion." To learn more about A Nation in Motion campaign, or to read hundreds of patient stories or to submit your own story, visit ANationInMotion.org.
