This DVD focuses on the issues that accompany pediatric and geriatric calls such as size of the patient, use of equipment that the EMT may be less familiar with, and the stress brought on by treating these patients. Witness response and care of pediatric patients that are burned, that were hit by an automobile, and an unknown problem. Watch the assessment and care of a three-day old infant, a child with decreased level of consciousness, and a poisoning patient. Also, geriatric patients present a variety of challenges including sight and hearing difficulties, multiple medications, complicated health problems, emotional stress, and dealing with approaching death. All of these challenges and others are contained in three geriatric calls.

With more than 38,000 members, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (aaos.org or orthoinfo.org), is the premier not-for-profit organization that provides education programs for orthopaedic surgeons and allied health professionals, champions the interests of patients and advances the highest quality of musculoskeletal health. Orthopaedic surgeons and the Academy are the authoritative sources of information for patients and the general public on musculoskeletal conditions, treatments and related issues.More than one in four Americans have bone or joint health problems, making them the greatest cause of lost work days in the U.S. When orthopaedic surgeons restore mobility and reduce pain, they help people get back to work and to independent, productive lives. Orthopaedic surgeons keep this “Nation in Motion.” To learn more about A Nation in Motion campaign, or to read hundreds of patient stories or to submit your own story, visit ANationInMotion.org.
