Besides the 1 week orientation
I tend to agree. About the only time that I would even consider doing a 1 week orientation for an RN doing CCT and taking ALS calls when the ALS trucks aren't available would be if the RN already has experience as a Paramedic. Otherwise you're betting that the EMTs are able to watch out for scene hazards that the RN might not even consider (among other operational concerns). I just think that a single week orientation on a truck for a CCT RN and then sending them out to occasionally pick up an ALS call, let alone CCT calls, could very easily end up with a sentinel event.That sounds like a sentinel event just waiting to happen
