    Glasgow Coma Scale or GCS is one the first major concepts taught to the new EMT student in EMT school. GCS (Glasgow Coma Scale) is a scale that tells EMS and emergency medical services staff how critical a trauma patient may be.
    The scoring system includes a verbal assessment, motor assessment and eye opening assessment. GCS can be added to your patient assessment exam that you will learn in EMT class.
    Using my GCS mnemonic and breaking down each point level by level, rest assured that after watching this video you will have the Glasgow coma scale (GCS) down for life!

    Thanks for making these videos man, really helpful stuff. I remember in my first responder class them teaching us the difference between the flexion and extension part. They said flexion is like a really intense rigid form of withdrawing, where as extension is the opposite, which means somethings REALLY wrong with the patient. Thats kinda how I remember which ones more severe.

    I took my class in December and it was super hard. I feel like I learned nothing and just barely passed. It was one hour a week. And the rest they told u to read the book. I don't learn that way. It kinda made me discouraged. And made me feel to stupid to even try. So it's now March and I've yet to take the nremt. But I'm hoping studying your videos will give me the confidence to take it. My goal is take the test by the end of the month. Thank you for these. I'm already a member with ur program. I just need some confidence and drive to do it.

    hello sir! I just got hired as an EMT-B with AMR out of San Diego. I have a IFT shift tomorrow with an FTO and we will most likely be running a CCT unit most of the shifts. and I'm wondering any tips you may have first day on the job? I'm pretty nervous but very excited, after I see things a couple times as a "street EMT" I think I will get the hang of things pretty fast. Never had any patient care or experience before and just don't quite know what to except. Thank you! :)

    i saw a sample scenario that said a patient pulled their arms in but pointed their toes in response to pain. would that be considered a 2 or a 3 under motor? or in general if the patient shows two or more of the same signs within a category to you give them the higher point or the lower point?

      Today it has over 420 videos and access to the community group to ask questions. Thus the price increase, it is still lifetime access. FYI, once you are in the course and sign up you get all updates for life. www.prepareforems.com
