SUBCOURSE CONTENT

NOTE: The 91W Health Care Specialist is currently the 91B Medical Specialist. The 91B

becomes 91W on 1 Oct 2001.

This subcourse contains 10 lessons (lessons 16-25). Each lesson presents information

needed to successfully perform the medical tasks which a combat lifesaver must know.

SUPPLEMENTARY REQUIREMENTS

Materials Needed. You will be furnished with needed materials at the time you take the

performance (hands-on) examinations. You may be required to furnish a pencil for the

written examination.

Supervisory Assistance. You may study the information contained in this subcourse on

your own before attending classroom instruction. When you take the performance

(hands-on) examinations, the evaluator will use checklists similar to those contained in this

subcourse. The written examination consists of multiple-choice items and will be

closed-book and proctored.

References. No supplementary references are needed for this subcourse.

SUGGESTED STUDY PROCEDURES

After reading and studying the text assignment of a lesson, complete the lesson exercises

at the end of the lesson. If possible, answer the exercises without referring back to the

lesson text. After completing the exercises, check your answers against the solutions

located at the end of the lesson. For each exercise answered incorrectly, reread the

material referenced for that exercise.

If the lesson exercises contain a performance exercise, study the steps until you know what

you must do and the sequence in which the steps are performed. Some tasks, such as

taking pulse and respiration, can be practiced. Your instructor may allow you to practice

starting an IV on an artificial arm, but do not attempt to start an IV on a person unless you

are under direct medical supervision.

Complete each lesson before proceeding to the next.

As you study this subcourse, write down comments on the student comment sheet located

at the end of this subcourse. Remove, fold, tape, and mail the comment sheet after you

complete the examinations.
