Memorize one universal method (desired dose ÷ stock concentration × volume). Pre-work the top meds you’ll actually give. Use a mini-grid for weight-based doses and round only per protocol. After math, triple-check: drug, dose, route, patient, time, and contraindications.

When life threats exist you cannot correct on scene—airway compromise, uncontrolled bleeding, decomp shock—package and go. Treat what you can in motion. For stable patients or when on-scene interventions change outcomes, stay and play (briefly) with a hard time cap (e.g., 10 minutes). Tie every choice to ABCs and mechanism. Practice decision-making in the EMT-B…

Common traps: downed power lines, unstable vehicles, confined spaces, hostile scenes. The correct move is usually secure the scene/request resources before patient contact, then PPE, then triage as needed. If it’s unsafe, you don’t enter. Build a 10-item checklist you can rattle off.

Because Primary Assessment is 39–43% of the EMT exam, tightening this sequence is the single biggest score mover. Use the “ABCs, vitals, decide” pattern: open airway, verify breathing, pulse/bleeding/perfusion, baseline vitals, then decide rapid treatment vs rapid transport. Practice with a timer; aim to verbalize priorities in under a minute. Drill with the EMT-B Advanced…
