DT4EMS Instructor Course

[DT4EMS]

Hello All,

With the recent prospects of more schools picking up the DT4EMS program, we will be hosting a DT4EMS Instructor course in West Plains Missouri July 10th through the 14th. It will be 5 days of 8 hours each. Check out the dt4ems.net website for more info.

You can also call 417-256-1773 to register.

Kip,

I keep telling you - you have GOT to come out to Pennsylvania.

Kip,

I would love to Bruddah!! Once I get some of these folks trained here to help with these other schools I am hoping to do more travelling to share with others. :)

Kip,

I check your website often hoping that you take your show on the road. When you do, please let me and EMTLife.com know!

I'm going to find a way to take one of your courses, but it may be a while :)

I forwarded the link to my fiance, this is so far up his alley he may even show up at your class in MO. He's an investigator for the corrections department, paramedic, and soon-to-be Chief of his volly dept if all goes well. :)

Thanks so much guys.......

I really appreciate the support. I think we have started to really get out there on the search engines. I have had several phone calls and emails this past week from some of the bigger cities.

I hope if we do nothing else, we bring an awareness to the growing problem.

I still can't believe that a female medic can be attacked in the back of an ambulance or on a scene and it not make national news.

I still love this forum because people try to stay "clean". Even if there is a difference of opinions RESPECT still comes through in the posts!!

[DT4EMS]

Hi All,

I jsut wanted to let everyone know the class is filling up fast. We are limiting this class to 20 participants. I know most of the people that are signed up so far and I can tell you it will be a blast!!

I would love to go...still waiting for you to get down here. :P

Maybe sometime in the near future I can get back down that way! I have a lot of family and friends in Florida.

This instructor course is a "test run" if you will. We will take what is useful from this one to tweak it and make the next one even better.

[Wingnut]

Do you think this is something you could eventually go online with?

[DT4EMS]

Sorry, it took so long to reply........ I missed it.

I don't think it would be possible to do it online. There are some things we do in the course to "stimulate" the learning process that would not be able to work online. There is a ton of hands on.

I will offer a DISCOUNT to EMTLife members. You would have to PM me through this site to sign up. You would get $50.00 off of the DT4EMS-Initial or $100.00 off of the Instructor course coming up in July.

This offer is good ONLY to EMTlife members.

My better half may become Chief in the near future (long story) if so, and you still have spots - we may be there. :) I'll keep you posted.

Bump! :) Don't hate the player......hate the game. Bwahaha!!

I am going to apply for CEU's in every state I can. I am looking to take the show on the road so to speak.

If you know of your states EMS office where I can apply could you let me know? If you know of a specific contact person I could use that too.

This will help two ways, first if you come to one in Missouri your CEU's would already be approved. Second if they are good in your state, it would make it more appealing for an agency to host a course.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

PA has approved a similar course in the past.... There was 1 last month that I wanted to do, but couldn't.

[DT4EMS]

Hey Jon,

Do you know who put the last class on? What was it called?

[Jon]

See HERE: http://chesterfire.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2041

Street Survival for EMS

The contact info is for one of the local Fire Departemtns that occasionally puts on Con-Ed. I know they had someone come in to teach the class... but I don't know who.

Does't look too bad at all. I commend them for the 16 hour stance. Most places try to do something in the 4 hour range. That is nowhere near enough.

I would be curious to see how much was taught on the levels of force as well as the documentation aspect. I am also weary of palm-heeling a person in the face that has you by the shirt.

Those force options don't equal out most of the time. Of course I am only commenting about the pics.... I didn't see any of the actual legal material covered. It may be top notch.

Just remember, no matter where you train.....

As a medic/EMT/civilian.........we have the duty to retreat! Even when you use self-defense, you must be able to articulate you had no other option than force at the moment you used it.

[Jon]

Yep... the back of an ambulance is small, and I'm not jumping out when it is moving... that's why we have "Modified O2 therapy" ;)

[DT4EMS]

We are going to run a special on the DT4EMS-1 (Initial) Course. Instead of $150.00 it will only be $99.00 for the two days and 16 CEU's.

We can come to you ( if you "host" us) or come see us!

[DT4EMS]

We have scheduled the next Instructor Course for July 5-9, 2007.

Call Kip at 417-256-1773 or email kip@dt4ems.net to sign up :)

When ya going to do something in Los Angeles, huh, Kip?

Though don't know how big of a crowd we'd have...EMS seems to be all FF or FF hopefuls around here...not that they wouldn't benefit, but probably concentrating their training efforts and cash of different stuff.

Hopefully '07 is the year I get to "travel" a bunch. With us making the front page if Missouri's EMS magazine (Code 3) and getting to teach at the conference I think we are on our way.

I always look at FF as being a part of EMS and vice versa. We can simply change the name and call it DT4FF (just isn't as catchy :) ) It would be 100% same content.

Anthony, send some L.A. contact information and I'll make sure they get a flyer for the class. I'm Kip's motivator by the way.
