MONOPOLY: Emergency Medical Services Edition, $39.95: In this twist on the classic board game, users compete to earn protocols and skills to take command of all the EMS Stations and Hospitals on the board. The winner of the game will have saved countless lives and can claim their place as the Top Responder. (Emergency Services Play)

Gerber: Hinderer CLS- Combat Life Saver, $59.00: Use it to cut through clothing, slice through safety belts, open an oxygen tank valve, punch a hole in a window – this knife can do it all. Honestly, this knife might be a sentient being. This knife is so useful, it's officiating at my cousin's wedding next month. (thefirestore.com)

Paramedic: On the Front Lines of Medicine, by Peter Canning, $7.99: Canning isn't your typical EMS provider. After spending over a decade in health-care policy, he now works as an EMT in Hartford, Conn. This book is his account of learning the ropes in his new career and it reflects the slow maturation that comes from working one of the most unpredictable jobs on the planet. "He brings to his work the larger perspective of a former policy wonk," according to Kirkus Reviews. "There are enough gory details here to satisfy anyone's curiosity about just what it is that paramedics do and how they do it." (Amazon)

Survival Bracelets, $22-33: Whatever particular crisis you're dealing with – on or off duty – one thing EMS providers can always use is a sturdy piece of rescue line. The surprisingly cool-looking Survival Strap Bracelet is actually a tight weave of up to 24' of 550# military spec paracord. Use it to lower your family off the roof or, in a pinch, tie your mattress to your car. (Survival Straps)

EMS Bear, $8.50: Among the many challenges medics face in their jobs, there's probably nothing harder in many ways than consoling a child whose parents have been hurt. Keep this blue bear stowed in your truck for just such an occasion. You can also take him out for a hug, from time to time. We won't judge you. (EmergencyStuff.com)
