What do Intermediate Emergency Medical Technicians do?

An Intermediate Emergency Medical Technician (EMT-Intermediate or AEMT) provides limited advanced care beyond basic EMT skills, including administering IV fluids, performing advanced airway management, and administering a wider range of medications. 

They act as a bridge between EMTs and paramedics, enabling more advanced prehospital care by providing services such as advanced cardiac monitoring, manual defibrillation, and specific invasive procedures under the direction of a medical professional.  

What they do

Advanced Airway Management: Can insert multi-lumen airways, and in some states, perform endotracheal intubation. 

Intravenous (IV) Therapy: Can establish and manage IV access for fluid administration. 

Medication Administration: Can administer a broader range of medications than an EMT-Basic, including D5W, Narcan, and other approved drugs, according to state protocols. 

Advanced Cardiac Monitoring: Can utilize 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) and perform transcutaneous pacing and manual defibrillation. 

Advanced Assessment: Possess enhanced assessment skills to diagnose better and treat patients. 

Role

State-Specific Scope: Their scope of practice varies significantly by state, and they must comply with each state’s regulations. 

Bridging the Gap: They operate at a higher skill level than an EMT-Basic but still below that of a paramedic, providing a higher level of prehospital care. 

Enhanced Procedures: Authorized to perform more invasive procedures, such as needle chest decompression in some protocols.
