Georgia Emergency Medical Responder Certification Exam
ACTUAL EXAM COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
ANSWERS LATEST UPDATE THIS YEAR
SUMMARIZED EXAM COVERAGE
The Georgia EMR exam focuses on rapid patient assessment, airway management, CPR/AED use,
trauma care, and recognition of life-threatening medical conditions. Candidates must demonstrate
knowledge of scene safety, legal responsibilities, and EMS operations, while effectively managing
respiratory, cardiac, trauma, and environmental emergencies across all age groups. Emphasis is placed
on decision-making, prioritization, and lifesaving interventions in prehospital care.
MCQs WITH RATIONALES (BATCH 1 – 200 QUESTIONS)
1.
A 45-year-old male collapses at a grocery store and is unresponsive with no breathing. What should the
EMR do first after confirming scene safety?
A. Check pulse for 30 seconds
B. Begin chest compressions immediately
, Page 2 of 102
C. Attach AED first
D. Give oxygen
Answer: B
Rationale: Immediate CPR initiation is critical; chest compressions should begin within seconds.
2.
During patient assessment, which finding indicates inadequate perfusion in a trauma patient?
A. Warm dry skin
B. Capillary refill of 1 second
C. Pale, cool, clammy skin
D. Normal pulse rate
Answer: C
Rationale: Cool, clammy skin indicates shock and poor perfusion.
3.
An EMR arrives at a scene where a patient is seizing. What is the priority action?
A. Insert airway adjunct immediately
, Page 3 of 102
B. Restrain the patient
C. Protect the patient from injury
D. Give oral glucose
Answer: C
Rationale: Prevent injury during seizure; do not restrain or force objects into the mouth.
4.
Which method is most appropriate for opening the airway in a trauma patient?
A. Head-tilt/chin-lift
B. Jaw-thrust maneuver
C. Hyperextension
D. Nasal airway insertion
Answer: B
Rationale: Jaw-thrust minimizes spinal movement.
5.

A diabetic patient is confused and sweating. What condition is most likely?
A. Hyperglycemia
B. Hypoglycemia
C. Stroke
D. Shock
Answer: B
Rationale: Sweating and confusion are classic hypoglycemia signs.
6.
What is the correct compression-to-ventilation ratio for adult CPR by a single rescuer?
A. 15:2
B. 30:2
C. 5:1
D. 20:2
Answer: B
Rationale: Standard adult CPR ratio is 30 compressions to 2 breaths.
