In reviewing the Arizona Department of Education’s, (ADE) career and technical education (CTE) program standards for the emergency medical services (EMT), it became clear that the State of Arizona operates from an abbreviated version of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) standards. The curriculum for EMT is a national standard curriculum and is the foundation of EMS prehospital training. In addition, the new curriculum parallels the recommendations of the National EMS Education. The ADE, uses the National Registry for Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) testing as the summative assessment upon completion of the program secondary and post-secondary schools. Although the ADE has a significant role in the continuous success of EMT programs and curriculum, the students and educational programs are directed by the Arizona Bureau of Emergency Medical Services (AZBEMS).

The history of EMS is extremely interesting, to think that a service that is expected to respond to an emergency at the ring of a phone, was once just something used to remove injured soldiers from the battlefield. Imagine the amount of people who died from the simple common cold or infection, to the practice today of identifying and treating strokes and cardiac arrests. Bringing the “White Pages” to identify the need for a cohesive response to the dangerous highways of the states opened the door for the basic and advanced life support providers of today. EMS has come a very long way, but still has much further to go. There will be many changes within the next ten to twenty years involving the EMS community which can be viewed as positive

Investing my time in the care of my patient gives the opportunity to not only assist them in a difficult situation, but also to learn more about their diagnosis and the treatment, while comparing it to what we have learned in class. For example, I had a patient that suffered from Sickle Cell Disease and came to the ER during a crisis. Correlating this case to the books and the content learned in class, these patients receive at least 1000 mL of fluids, pain medication, and oxygen. Additionally, I had a patient with meningitis.
