EMS Vehicle Operator Safety (Arabic Edition)
View Arabic Cover and Description
Every year, thousands of emergency medical services (EMS) vehicle collisions cause significant property damage, injury, and death-underscoring the need for dedicated EMS vehicle operator training. To meet this need, Jones amp Bartlett Learning has partnered with the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (NAEMT) to develop a comprehensive course for EMS practitioners who operate ambulances and other emergency response vehicles.
EMS Vehicle Operator Safety (EVOS) addresses the vehicle operations and transport safety knowledge gaps that lead to injury and death. Built on current research and featuring discussions of actual crashes and common driving scenarios-and the lessons that can be learned from them-it challenges emergency vehicle operators to consider if they truly know how to arrive at a scene safely. The course manual profiles real-life incidents and provides practical safety pointers, emphasizing the critical safety principles that are needed to transform a culture of dangerous driving habits into a culture of safety.
