Mosbys Paramedic Textbook, Third Edition is a best-selling U.S. textbook currently used in many Canadian paramedic courses, ranging from Primary Care level (PCP) to Advanced Care (ACP) courses. This book is extremely comprehensive, containing everything in one convenient volume, and updated to reflect the new 2005 emergency cardiovascular care guidelines. It is now packaged with an all-Canadian supplement, The Canadian Paramedic: An Introduction by Robert Theriault EMCA, RCT (Adv.), CCP(F), to cover key areas of concern for Canadian paramedics. The author is a Critical Care Paramedic, a designation not frequently obtained by Canadian paramedics. The topic of professionalism is thoroughly discussed in Chapter 1. Aileen Ashman, the primary author of Chapter 3, is a lawyer, registered nurse, and expert in the field, and comprehensively discusses the medical-legal aspects of paramedic practice in language that is easily understood. 70 75% of Glossary terms are uniquely Canadian in that a term has a different meaning in Canada or the terminology itself is different.

Mosby's Advanced Life Support Refresher & Review will be an entirely new product in our advanced EMS provider line. Based on the format of Mack, Mosby's Comprehensive EMT-Basic Refresher and Review, this CD will be an all-encompassing, interactive tool that can be used to prepare for a state certification exam, the National Registry Exam or just as a clinical refresher tool. It will prepare the student for written content questions and the skills required for the practical exam. The content would encompass both the Intermediate and Paramedic curricula so the market then would not be limited but would be open to both EMT-I and EMT-P students, EMT-I and EMT-P instructors (both for their own recertifications and for teaching refresher courses) and practicing EMT-I's and EMT-P's. It will be as useful for the student taking his first certification test as it will be for a provider recertifying for the 20th time.
