Advanced Medical Life Support by Twink J Dalton

Advanced Medical Life Support by Twink J Dalton

For courses in Advanced Medical Life Support, Paramedic, Continuing Education and In-Service Training. Can be used for the NAEMT AMLS course and is also a perfect compliment to the medical sections of a paramedic course. Going well beyond the DOT paramedic curriculum, this text offers a high level--yet practical--approach to the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of the full range of adult medical emergencies. Each chapter discusses realistic methods that a seasoned EMS practitioner would use--moving from assessment-based procedures with initial management of the threats, to field diagnosis and management of treatable underlying causes. Assumes a familiarity with anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology, and an overall understanding of the nature of medical emergencies.

Twink Dalton is a nurse and a paramedic.   She worked as an Emergency Department nurse, worked with EMS training programs, was a trauma coordinator and worked with the Omaha Fire Department and Pridemark Paramedic Services.   She is now the Director of the EMS Division of the Mountain View Fire Protection District.  Twink lectures nationally and is a well known author.
