This learning resource is designed for students in the field of Emergency Medical Response (EMR). It guides them through various scenarios to evaluate the appropriateness of specific actions based on their training and the National EMS Scope of Practice Model. Students will examine cases like applying an AED during a cardiac arrest, using a tourniquet on a bleeding patient, performing endotracheal intubation, and assisting with prescribed medication. For each scenario, students are encouraged to justify their decisions, fostering critical thinking around the legal and ethical responsibilities of EMRs. The activity emphasizes the importance of adhering strictly to one's legal scope of practice to ensure safety for both the patient and the responder.
