Letter from the President
EMT Student,
EMT class is going to be fun! The most enjoyable part of class is the time you
spend in the clinical environment. When you are riding on the ambulance or
spending time in the emergency room you can get a sense of what your chosen
career is going to be like. The experiences you go through in the clinical
environment will help you learn the curriculum better.
West Michigan is an awesome place to learn from the people doing the job. You
should try to take advantage of this opportunity. We specify minimum number of
hours and minimum number of experiences. There is not set maximum number of
hours. Most of us in education know that we learn by doing. So, get out there
and do the stuff in a safe and comfortable environment.
You are responsible for your progress through the clinical phase. You will be
doing the scheduling. You will be doing the documentation. Make sure that you
are keeping everything up-to-date. Many students have dropped the ball in the
past and did not stay focused on the documentation of their clinicals. Make
sure you stay diligent with the documentation. It is an important aspect of
being successful in EMS.
I think that this is a good time for you to “play the field”. You should try to
schedule time at each of the major ambulance companies in the area and see what
you might like and not like about those companies. You can also ride with a few
different crews. Later, I will want you to attempt to stay with one crew to
build a good working relationship. Now is the time to see how different people
work in EMS.
Lastly, have fun with it! This is what you have been training for. Don’t worry
so much about mistakes. Just, get in there and take care of some patients. If
you are too timid to do some assessments or take vital signs, the preceptor will
not be able to help you with your performance.
Good Luck!
Steve Huisman

The Clinical Experience All participants of an EMT-Basic Course at the Great Lakes EMS Academy must attend a certain number of hours in a
clinical setting. This time will be spent at various hospitals and ambulances in the West Michigan area. The importance
of experiential learning cannot be overstated. During the clinical exposure, it is expected that all students will conduct
themselves in a professional way and show enthusiasm towards learning.
All clinicals will be scheduled through the FISDAP. If students sign up for clinicals outside of the “system”, the time
spent at those clinicals will not count towards their clinical obligations. If a student has an emergency cancellation of a
clinical, they should call the Clinical Coordinator at the earliest possible time to advise her that they will not be able to
make their clinical obligation.
The clinical experience is a documentation intensive activity. Students are to complete:
1. Skills completed while in the clinical environment.
2. CHARTing of each patient care experience (while on the ambulance).
3. Clinical Daily Performance Records (pen-n-paper).
4
Progress Table
The student must have the immunizations and exposure control items signed off before going into the clinical
environment. The other items are to be signed off after the students shows a basic level of competency and the instructor
believes it is safe for the student to perform the skill in the clinical environment with minimal supervision.
The student’s initials contend that the student feels comfortable with the skill.
In the clinical environment, the preceptor can use this table as a reference when establishing whether a student has the
didactic and practical instruction before attempting various skills on patients.

FISDAP (Clinical Scheduler)
The Great Lakes EMS Academy uses FISDAP for clinical tracking and documentation. FISDAP is the website the
students will use to:
1. Schedule their clinical experiences
2. Track their skills in lab
3. Document and track their patient encounters
How do I create a new FISDSAP account?
All Students will need to have a FISDAP account before the first day of class.
1. Once you have a FIISDAP activation code, creating an account is easy.
2. Go to the FISDASP home page, www.fisdap.net.
3. Click Create an Account.
4. Type or paste in your activation code (you get that from Melissa) and click Continue.
5. You will need to enter your billing information, then click Place Order. On the receipt page, click Create Your
Account.
6. Enter your profile information, and choose a FISDAP username and password, then click Save & Continue.
7. Read and accept the User Agreement and click Continue.
8. You’re all done! Click Continue to My FISDAP to log in and access your new account.
Scheduling Clinicals Students will be required to sign up for all their clinical obligations early in the course. Throughout the course there may
be occasions when the student will need to change the schedule, this can be done through FISDAP when thee is time to
make that change. Otherwise, the student should notify the Clinical Coordinator or the Director of the Academy
Clinical scheduling can be very difficult. It is expected that the student will sign up for clinicals in such a manner that
would avoid many schedule changes or conflicts.
All clinicals will be scheduled through FISDAP. If students sign up for clinicals outside of the “system” used to schedule
clinicals, the time spent at those clinicals will not count towards their clinical obligations.
If a student has an emergency cancellation of a clinical, they should call the Clinical Coordinator at the earliest possible
time to advise her that they will not be able to make their clinical obligation.

Rules in the Clinical Environment The rules listed below are set forth to assure the various clinical sites that students will be professional and will follow set
policies. Students who violate these rules can be dismissed from the Academy without prospect of reclaiming their tuition.
Many actions will warrant a verbal reprimand followed by a written reprimand and then finally dismissal (progressive
discipline). However other actions may call for immediate dismissal. These actions must be proven and substantiated by
witnesses or confession.
1. Falsifying records for time spent at clinical sites will not be tolerated.
2. An act of gross negligence in patient care during any clinical exposure.
3. Demonstrating lack of medical ethics such as disclosure of confidential information.
4. Harassing employees, patients or other individuals encountered at clinical sites. Harassment of a
threatening nature may be grounds for immediate dismissal.
5. Stealing property owned or leased by the clinical site will mean immediate dismissal and charges will
be pressed.
6. Bringing weapons to the clinical site. Again, this could be reason for immediate dismissal.
7. The use of illicit drugs or alcohol within 8 hours before a clinical experience will warrant dismissal
from the Academy
8. As a student, you will not operate any radio or drive any vehicles.
9. You must plan to ride the entire shift. The ambulance company cannot jeopardize the coverage to
return you to headquarters at your discretion.
10. Large purses and bulky items are cumbersome and cannot be accommodated in the ambulance.
11. The use of seatbelts is mandatory while the ambulance is in motion.
12. No eating, drinking, applying makeup or applying lip balm while in the patient compartment.
13. Students must comply with all clinical uniform standards. Failure to adhere to clinical uniform and
appearance standards while at a clinical is reason for immediate dismissal from the program.
14. If the patient presents a possible exposure risk, i.e. open wounds, draining lesions, or persistent cough,
the EMS student will follow appropriate infection control guidelines.
15. Students need to be very careful regarding what they post on social media regarding what they saw
while in the clinical environment. Absolutely nothing should be posted that would be referenced to a
certain patient situation. This is not only an Academy rule; it is a HIPAA violation.
Student ID Each student will have an ID badge created and distributed by the Academy. This badge will be completed and given to
the Student before clinical observation begins. This will be a picture ID with general student information to include name,
course, and student number. ID’s must be worn during each clinical experience.
Wearing uniforms to school.
From time-to-time students will wear their uniform to class. This is usually the case on the practical days (Tuesdays). When students are wearing the uniform, they are to adhere to all the clinical uniform guidelines. Hence, no tennis shoes, not brown boots, not beards (facial hair), no earrings. You must follow all the rules. Or, simply do not wear the uniform.
Clinical Obligations There is a minimal requirement for the hours a student spends in the clinical environment.

Attendance Policy for the Clinical Obligation Students must be prompt and dependable in regards to their clinical schedule. Tardiness is unacceptable. If a student
misses a clinical and does not give any notice of such conduct, they will be placed on probation for the rest of the module.
A second occurrence during that module will lead to a failing grade for the clinical obligation.

Clinical Uniform and Appearance Standards
EMT-Basic students at the Academy wear a clinical uniform to all clinicals and to some of the classroom sessions. The Academy has earned a reputation for providing well-prepared and professional prehospital care providers. To maintain this reputation, the students must present themselves in a highly professional manner while in the public’s eye and wearing the clinical uniform.
1. Dark Blue Working Pants: These can be any brand. The student should consider purchasing the pants from a company that sells uniforms to EMS workers. These pants should be well fitted to the student. No holes or frayed edges. Nye Uniform has a very good pant with cargo pockets that most the students will buy. Students are not to wear blue jeans with the uniform shirt.
2. Navy Blue Uniform Shirt: The blue uniform shirt can be long or short sleeved. The shirt will be purchased at Nye Uniform across the street from the Great Lakes EMS Academy. This shirt should be clean, well-fitted to the student, and free of wrinkles when worn in public. Student are not to wear long sleeve shirts underneath their short-sleeve uniform shirt.
3. Black Boots: Students are encouraged to purchase and wear black working boots for use in the ALS ambulance clinicals. These boots are the standard footwear for people working in EMS. Students can wear a black shoe. If back shoes are worn the student will wear dark socks. The shoe will be all black. If the shoe or boot has laces, the laces will be black. Most running shoes and tennis shoes are not appropriate.
4. Uniform Belt. The uniform will be worn with a belt. The belt will be black or dark blue. Students should use a belt that is typically used in EMS.
5. T-Shirt: Students should wear a T-shirt with the uniform. This t-shirt will be white or dark blue and will be free of any writing or graphics that can be seen through the uniform shirt.
6. Long sleeve under shirts: If a student is wearing a short sleeve uniform shirt they are not allowed to wear a long sleeve undershirt. The T-shirt should not extend farther than the uniform sleeves.
7. Name Tags and assorted Uniform Items: The student may elect to adorn their shirt with various accoutrements. Brass nameplates are common items worn on the uniform. These can be purchased at Nye Uniform for approximately $10.00.
8. Clinical uniforms are not to be worn when going to a bar. The student can just take the uniform shirt off to go into an establishment that serves alcohol. You need to pay attention to what you are doing while in uniform. You are representing our industry.
Appearance
1. Students should understand that when they are wearing the uniform they represent the Academy and the EMS industry. Students need to keep their uniforms clean, wrinkle-free, and professional looking. When wearing the Great Lakes EMS Academy uniform students should adhere to the clinical attire standards
2. Haircuts/Hairstyles: Student’s hair must be neat, clean, and secured away from the face. Male student’s hair will be no longer than shoulder length.
3. Hygiene: Students will practice good personal hygiene habits throughout the course. Students cannot smell bad while in the clinical environment. Use soap and shampoo and deodorant.
4. Facial Hair: Mustaches will be neat, clean, and kept off the upper lip. No other facial hair will be authorized. No beards, no goatees, no long sideburns. If students have facial hair while wearing an Academy uniform, they will be sent home from class or clinical.
5. Finger nails: Nails will be short and clean. Clear nail polish is preferred. No brightly colored nail polish. Acrylic nails are prohibited.
6. Jewelry: Only two stud type earrings (one in each earlobe) are allowed during clinicals. If you are going to wear an earring you need to wear two earrings. No other visual piercing will be authorized. Nothing will be worn on the eyebrows, tongue, lip, cheek, nose, or around the exterior aspect of the ear.
7. Tattoos: All tattoos will need to be covered while wearing a clinical uniform. This usually means wearing a long sleeve shirt to cover tattoos on the forearms. Visible tattoos on the neck will need to be covered.
10
Clinical Documentation Clinical experience must be documented by EMT students. We use a redundant system for this documentation.
Students must bring their clinical manual to the clinical site. When they arrive at the clinical site they should have their
clinical documentation form partially completed. This would include the demographic information and the objectives
that the EMT student would like to get accomplished during the clinical. At the end of the clinical the student must
have the preceptor complete the form and sign the form in the appropriate box at the bottom of the page.
To be completed by the student before arriving at clinical site
Student Name Clinical Site Date # hours today
Objectives 1. _______________________________________________________
2. _______________________________________________________

4. _______________________________________________________
The boxes above should be completed before you get to the clinical site
Emergency Room
When the EMT student arrives at the clinical site they should introduce themselves as an EMT student at Great Lakes
EMS Academy. The student will be paired with an RN will fill the role as their preceptor. It is imperative that you
make a good first impression. You need to ensure that the preceptor understands that you are there to learn and you
would like to help in any way possible. You will find that if you pitch in and help with stuff like getting blankets and
moving patients that the Nurse will be much more likely to keep you involved.
The documentation for ER clinicals is simple. You only need to complete the Clinical Documentation Form (Page 13).
You should also track what skills you are completing so you can document those on FISDAP. You should also take a
picture (scan) the Clinical Documentation Form to upload to FISDAP.
When you are done with the clinical, make sure that you have your signature and thank the staff at the emergency room
for the experience. You should make sure to document your clinical on FISDAP within 48 hours
Ambulance
When the EMT student arrives at the clinical site they will most likely be met by a dispatcher or supervisor. You should
introduce yourself as an EMT student at Great Lakes EMS Academy. The student will be paired with an ambulance
crew. One of the crew (most likely the senior) will fill the role as their preceptor. It is imperative that you make a good
first impression. You need to ensure that the preceptor understands that you are there to learn and you would like to
help in any way possible.
The documentation clinicals is more in depth. You not only need to complete the Clinical Documentation Form (Page
15), you also need to complete 5 Patient Care Reports (PCRs). You will see that after each of the Clinical
Documentation Forms there are 5 PCRs. These forms will help you track what skills you are completing so you can
document those on FISDAP. You should also take a picture (scan) the Clinical Documentation Form and PCRs to
upload to FISDAP.
11
You will note that when you will be documenting the patient interactions under the heading; “Remarkable patient
encounters (completed by student)” on the Clinical Documentation Form. The far-left column is labeled: “PCR #. This
PCR number is a number that is generated by the student. On the first PCR, the student will create the first number and
the following numbers will run in sequence. The first number will be the year the student started EMT class. The next
number will be the month. This will be followed by the student’s initials and finally the patient count.
So, if Mike F. Johnson started class in February of 2016 the number would look like this: 201602MFJ-01
This number will be written in two places; 1) in the box below in the PCR # column and 2) in the upper right hand
corner of the PCR.

Medical History:
When you are done with the clinical, make sure that you have the preceptor’s signature and thank the crew. It is a good
idea to offer any assistance with completing the end of shift tasks. You will need to document all your patient
interactions on FISDAP with in 48 hours.
