Hey Everyone I am curious if anyone else is writing ACP exam in June and wants to have a study group in Calgary most likely on the weekend or during weekend days currently. If your interested please let me know :) Id be down for an online group as well on skype or some other media as well

I would be against MRE's or any form there of, they are heavy and expensive compared to any alternative. If your still stuck on MRE's go to HERE and as most other people have been saying Mountain House is great but there are a lot of dehydrated options I would do it yourself because then you...

In my Province up here cave rescue is very similar to Search and Rescue and is mostly volunteer based. We have a group called ACRO, Alberta Cave Rescue Assocation, they get tasked the same to my knoweldge (through a tasking agency like a police service or park service) and then deploy their...

The ones that I have seen have 4 in the pants (One lower leg below knee and one high on the thigh) and you can also move the pants up and down depending on where you need it. There are shirts as well that have 4 as well. The destruction of them in an IED is a very good point, another good...

Your probably right but it also doesn't say you need to call medical direction anywhere that I could find (I'm going to read it again to make sure) and when you look at the next section for inhaltion route its specfically says to assit in the administer section or let them do it yourself where...

Im assuming that by assit you mean the old take there hand and place the epi-pen in it and then slam it in there leg. If thats not what you mean I dont think we have a disagreement. Assist in this sence means with medical direction from what I understand. I wouldnt say your instructor is...

Thanks for that list of books and the information. I like PMA but when I work 24 on 4 off its hard to do an EMT program part time so I will more then likley take 3-4 months off and get a course done quick.

OK just checked and I can send you my source if you want just ask me via PM. All online medications (Salbutamol, Ipratropium Bromide and Epinepherine) are listed as assisted medications meaning assited by permission of medical control (my interpretation). I will clarify, or feel free to...

Whats there schedule like for EMT class anyway?
