Section 2-600 - Health and Safety Procedures

CMH EMS Education Manual


Students shall report any dangerous environmental situations or safety hazards to their instructor, preceptor, FTO, and/or clinical educator immediately (i.e. Spills, loose wires, unsafe equipment, etc.).

When practicing skills, students should operate all equipment appropriately and properly clean all equipment.

The clinical preceptor(s), FTO(s), and clinical educator(s) have final authority over the student during rotations. Students are not permitted to operate any vehicles while on clinical rotations. Students shall always ride in a seated position and wear a seat belt while the vehicle is in motion - this includes in the patient compartment in the back of the ambulance.

If at any time the student performs actions not approved by the preceptor(s), FTO(s), or clinical educator(s), the participant may be sent home or possibly expelled from the course.

Directions given by training personnel should be followed and if not understood, the student should ask for clarification before continuing the task.
