A fun and informative approach to learning, this book brings together a range of case studies from within prehospital care covering various conditions and situations which you may face working in an ambulance setting. Paramedic Case Studies will guide you through a number of detailed and descriptive scenarios, putting you at the centre of the action, each accompanied by full-colour illustrations to help set the scene and aid your understanding. Readers are encouraged to think critically through 'what would you do next?' questions, highlighting appropriate actions for each situation and how to achieve the best outcomes for your patient. Originally published as monthly instalments in Standby CPD, each case study has been brought up to date with the latest guidance and research. It also features brand new content, not published anywhere else before.
