Watching and/or listening to EMT class lectures prior to formal instruction should make your life much less stressful. After entering the profession, these lectures should help you to keep or sharpen your edge. On the other hand, they might convince you to stay as far away from emergency medicine as possible.
This is an extraordinary collection of lectures, most of which are delivered by a female paramedic. Recorded live in Alabama about 2014, it is valuable as an introduction, as a supplement to a current program, or as a refresher.
This is another extraordinary collection of lectures with numerous helpful and eye-opening anecdotes. They were delivered to high-school students in the Dallas, Texas, area around 2014. The former marine has a couple self-described "old moments," as we all do, but I give these a 10 out of 10.
This list might be slightly out of chronological order. Several of the videos have (surprisingly) become age-restricted since I first saw them, and one has been removed.
The audio quality in some of these is inconsistent, but the collection has the redeeming values of being recent and easily downloadable. The channel itself has many videos depicting EMT practical skills. The collection below is a combination of lectures from 2022 and 2019 (which accounts for the differing chapter numbers.)
This is a collection of non-live videos (dated 2013) that are largely on the EMT level.
These are recent videos with download links. Although they contain recorded class breaks, the instructor atones for this with length and anecdotes. Much of the content from the "Missing" videos is covered in the other lectures, and EMT-level lectures that could substitute for apparently missing files may be found on the collection's Vimeo channel.
