EMT Students Heading Off to Clinical
Landmark Learning is a North Carolina Office of Emergency Medical Services Training Institution. Although NC does not require clinical experiences for EMT-B, we require our students to complete a minimum of 16 hours of clinical time. Our student’s time is split into four- (4) hour shifts at Emergency Rooms and on Ambulances. Not only do our students obviously look good in their clinical uniforms, but they are prepared with basic life support skills to assist with patient care at their clinical sites.We are proud to be welcome at Westcare EMS, Haywood County EMS, and Cherokee Tribal EMS, Harris Regional Hospital Emergency Department, and Swain County Hospital Emergency Department. We believe that the experiences our students have in these settings add color and reality to our curriculum. Students get a “real life” perspective with the support of site preceptors. It may be likely that the experiences our students gain in clinical, lead many of them to continue in emergency medicine.Many kudos to all involved that help to make this portion of the EMT Intensive course come alive and provide these advanced learning opportunities for our students!
