Which is the minimum level of training that would be appropriate before an individual might be expected to start an IV line, insert an advanced airway, or administer medication, but not interpret or monitor electrocardiograms and cardiac rhythms, or administer cardiac defibrillation on a regular basis?
Explanation
Answer: C - The minimum level of training appropriate before an individual might be expected to start an IV line, insert an advanced airway, or administer medication is Advanced Emergency Medical Technician. However these individuals are typically not expected to have the skills to monitor cardiac rhythms, interpret electrocardiograms, or administer cardiac defibrillation on a regular basis. Those tasks are typically expected of Paramedics, which are the most advanced of the certification levels above.
