Well Medics lab was more or less a review of patient assessment; still have a test on it Tuesday morning though. It was kind of weird though cause some how I ended up in a group of ladies and when we went through the motions of trauma rapid assessment each of us had to be the victim and rescuer. Talk about awkward knowing that the person you are going to touch really isn’t hurt and being of the opposite sex wow that was tough. Although we all made it through the drill, all of us and the instructor had some good laughs. I am pretty sure they will have mannequins for the test, I hope.

Our Practical test used all live patient's from other EMT classes that were not in their final testing.....

No such luck, John... here in NYS we always practice and test out on a live human being. For the final exam you can bet it will be a male "patient", though.
