Before you read the instructions for the skill you will be evaluating today, please take a few moments to review your general responsibilities as a Skill Examiner:  \n• Conducting examination-related activities on an equal basis for all candidates, paying particular attention to eliminate actual or perceived discrimination based on race, color, national origin, religion, gender, age, disability, position within the local EMS system, or any other potential discriminating factors. The Skill Examiner must help ensure that the EMT Assistant and/or Simulated Patient conduct himself/herself in a similar manner throughout the examination.  \n• Objectively observing and recording each candidate’s performance  \n• Acting in a professional, unbiased, non-discriminating manner, being cautious to avoid any perceived harassment of any candidate  \n• Providing consistent and specific instructions to each candidate by reading the “Instructions to the Psychomotor Skills Candidate” exactly as printed in the material provided by the National Registry. Skill Examiners must limit conversation with candidates to the communication of instructions and answering of questions. All Skill Examiners must avoid social conversation with candidates or making comments on a candidate’s performance.  \n• Recording, totaling, and documenting all performances as required on all skill evaluation forms  \n• Thoroughly reading the instructions for the assigned skill before actual evaluation begins  \n• Checking all equipment, props, and moulage prior to and during the examination  \n• Briefing any Simulated Patient and EMT Assistant for the assigned skill  \n• Assuring professional conduct of all personnel involved with the particular skill throughout the examination  \n• Maintaining the security of all issued examination material during the examination and ensuring the return of all material to the National Registry Representative  \nThis skill is designed to evaluate the candidate's ability to integrate patient assessment and management skills on a moulaged patient with multiple systems trauma. A high-fidelity simulation manikin capable of responding as a real patient, given the scenario(s) utilized today, may also be used as the Simulated Patient. Since this is a scenario-based skill, it will require dialogue between the Skill Examiner and the candidate. The candidate will be required to physically perform all assessment steps listed on the evaluation instrument. However, all interventions should be verbalized instead of physically performed.  \nAs you welcome a candidate into the room and read the “Instructions to the Psychomotor Skills Candidate” and scenario information, be sure to do this in such a manner which does not permit the candidate to view the Simulated Patient. Other candidates waiting to test the skill must not be able to overhear any specific scenario information. It is easiest to have the candidate enter the room and turn his/her back to the Simulated Patient. A partition set up just inside of the entrance to your room that screens the Simulated Patient from view also works well. After all instructions and scenario information are read, the time limit starts when the candidate turns around and begins to approach the Simulated Patient.  \nToday, you may evaluate candidates who were trained over several different curricula and have different scopes of practice. You should determine the level at which each candidate is testing before beginning his/her actual evaluation so that you do not mistakenly hold a candidate responsible for a level of care which he/she may not have been trained. The instructions you read to the candidate will assist you in determining his/her level of training.  \nCandidates are required to perform a scene size-up just as he/she would in a field setting. When asked about the safety of the scene, you must indicate the scene is safe to enter.
