Default OEC Test for NSP

Know your scene safety, ABCs, SAMPLE, radio protocol, primary and
secondary surveys. Know how to apply triangles, quick splints, c/spine
and traction devices. Talk everything out loud so there's no doubt for
the instructors just how much you're doing and thinking along the way.

If you want a study guide, you might look at the OECZone website where
you're likely to find a downloadable study guide for this years' OEC
refresher. Just keep in mind it only covers a portion of the
curriculum since the refreshers go in 3-year cycles.

Perhaps you're making more out of this than you need to. This isn't
like college where you bum some of last semester's exams from your
fraternity buddy. Just know your stuff, do a good job, and be open to
the debrief where you discuss strong and weak points and can even talk
through things you messed up so that it's clear that you learned during
the scenario.

My class of 15 is two weeks away from completing the OEC course.

The practical and written tests are coming up and we would sincerely
appreciate any help, guidance, previous study guides, gouge on this
year's written/practical scenarios, etc...

If any recent or even past patrollers/candidates would care to assist
us, please contact me via this board or directly at:

Thanks!
