The psychomotor examination consists of six (6) stations for the EMR and seven (7) stations for the EMT. You will be scored on your ability to perform specific skills in each station required for your certification. You will be given hypothetical situations. You will be scored individually.  \nThere are six (6) scoring areas for the psychomotor EMR examination, which are:  \n1. Patient Assessment and Management of the Medical Patient  \n2. Patient Assessment and Management of the Trauma Patient  \n3. BVM Ventilation of an Apneic Adult Patient  \n4. Oxygen Administration by Non-Rebreather Mask  \n5. Cardiac Arrest Management/AED  \n6. Bleeding Control/Shock Management  \nThere are seven (7) scoring areas for the psychomotor EMT examination, which are the six (6) listed above and:  \n7. Random EMT Skill – ONE (1) of the following:  \na. Long Bone Immobilization  \nb. Joint Immobilization  \nThe skills performed will be within your scope of practice for the level of certification you are seeking. You will enter the designated station and will be provided verbal directions for performing each skill. You will be evaluated on those skills as performed and verbalized. You are required to perform “hands-on” assessments that are correct, timely, and appropriate function(s) of all skills. Same-day retesting opportunities are at the discretion of the examination administrator and will be based upon the number of candidates and evaluators/skill examiners at the site as well as the number of skill stations that candidates are initially successful completing.  \nYou must take the required examinations, psychomotor and cognitive, within 12 months of course completion. A total of six (6) examination attempts are allowed and must be completed within two (2) years of successful completion of the certification class. After three (3) failed examination attempts, the candidate must successfully complete one (1) of the following to become eligible for the next three (3) examination attempts:  \n1) An approved certification program beginning after the third attempt.  \n2) A “hands-on” remedial course at the appropriate EMS provider level approved by the Department of Health.  \na) Must be taught by either a PA EMS agency medical director of a licensed PA EMS agency OR a PA certified prehospital emergency medical services physician of a licensed PA EMS agency OR a PA recognized EMS Instructor-Trainer OR a PA certified EMS Instructor.  \nb) After the completed remediation form has been received by the Regional EMS Council, the candidate can schedule retest opportunities.  \nIf all six (6) attempts are unsuccessful, then the candidate will be required to retake an approved certification program.  \nThe examination result is only provided as a Pass or Fail. To successfully complete the psychomotor portion of the examination, a passing score must be attained in all skill stations. Any skill stations receiving a failing score must be retested. The retest may or may not be held on the same day as the original examination.  \nThe examination is to provide you with a fair and unbiased evaluation. You are not permitted to discuss the examination with any other candidates before, during, or after your skills station rotation. If you are found to be exchanging information with anyone during your psychomotor examination, you will be dismissed from the examination. Upon dismissal your results will be invalidated and will count as one (1) of the six (6) examination attempts permitted to attain EMS certification.  \nThe skill stations are to evaluate your ability to correctly perform care for the patient in a safe manner during the examination process.  \nAt each stati","cbCaiv1IGbuqbhkl","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiv1IGbuqbhkl","pdf",156859,"English","# EMR/EMT Certification Exam Overview\n## Psychomotor (Practical) Examination Structure and Scoring Areas\n## Evaluation Rules, Retesting, and Attempt Limits\n## Examination Conduct and Communication Restrictions\n## Assumption of Risk and Release/Hold Harmless Acknowledgment","[{\"question\":\"How is the psychomotor examination for EMR and EMT structured?\",\"answer\":\"The EMR psychomotor exam includes six stations, while the EMT psychomotor exam includes seven stations.
