Nancy Caroline’s Emergency Care in the Streets, Ninth Edition is the newest evolution of the premier paramedic education training program. This legendary paramedic textbook was first developed by Dr. Nancy Caroline in the early 1970s and transformed paramedic education. Today, lead editors Bob Elling and Barb Aehlert, along with the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, are proud to continue this legacy and set the new gold standard for the paramedics of tomorrow. The Ninth Edition offers cutting-edge, evidence-based content that meets or exceeds the most current scientific recommendations developed by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) and the ECC Guidelines established by the American Heart Association and other resuscitation councils around the world. Clear chapter objectives align with the 2019 National EMS Scope of Practice Model and 2021 EMS Education Standards. Thoroughly reviewed by medical doctors and subject-matter experts, the Ninth Edition teaches students the technical skills required of today’s paramedic while emphasizing other important professional attributes, including critical thinking, empathy, teamwork, communication, problem solving, and personal well-being. Taking a systemic approach to the assessment and management of traumatic and medical emergencies, and devoting entire chapters to special topics, such as mass-casualty incidents, the Ninth Edition covers the full scope of paramedic practice. Some of the key high-level updates to the Ninth Edition include the following: Language carefully reviewed throughout text to ensure gender neutrality, racial inclusivity, and nonstigmatizing descriptions of patient conditions NEW Street Smarts boxes throughout the text to emphasize the “soft skills” expected of today’s paramedics Images updated to reflect appropriate PPE in the current COVID-19 setting Added emphasis on current spinal motion restriction guidelines Thoroughly reviewed and updated references, statistics, and case studies CPR and ACLS algorithms updated throughout text to reflect the current AHA guidelines Review: Paramedic Training Guide - A very helpful book, required for paramedic training Review: Just as described with all the codes, but slow shipping - I bought this for my son who’s in college for his paramedic sciences degree. This version had all the codes and everything he needed and was several hundred dollars cheaper than what the college bookstore charged for the same item. The only problem was it took almost three weeks to get. My advice is to order early!

Just as described with all the codes, but slow shipping
I bought this for my son who’s in college for his paramedic sciences degree. This version had all the codes and everything he needed and was several hundred dollars cheaper than what the college bookstore charged for the same item. The only problem was it took almost three weeks to get. My advice is to order early!

Overall it’s a great text book.
I actually read the book and learned a lot. The online slides help with creating flash cards and Quick Look ups. Wish they had flash cards.

No access code
It didn’t come with an access code for the online book. This was extremely disappointing since the access code is mandatory for class. The books were is good shape to be in the used condition. After this disappointment I found the books in new condition and $270 cheaper. I returned these books and I am waiting on a refund.

Cheaper than the discounted version through school
This book is the exact same as the one my school said to get which cost over $800, $650 with the school’s discount code. Fair warning, this book is thick and heavy. Thankfully it comes in two volumes so you save at least a little weight when packing it around.

Got what I needed
The access code (which says on the front cover that it’s included) is the critical part of this purchase, because without it, you have to pay an additional $275 to gain access to the online class (which also means the books themselves don’t have much monetary value). I was originally furious, thinking we didn’t get an access code - BUT - it turned out there was a slip of paper that fell out of the book when we opened it and THAT piece of paper has the access code on it. Seems someone should explain this fact, or secure the slip of paper inside the front cover, so it doesn’t get thrown away with the wrapper, but we DID get everything and are pleased with the purchase (and pleased that we were able to buy the book with the access code for a little less than full retail price).
