Recently I hear a lot about EMT-D. I couldn't find anything online about it. Does anybody know about this? Is this a real cert?

Normally I don't like fast track schools but a friend of mine needs to do his intermediate as fast as he can. We looked on the Internet but we couldn't find anything. Does anybody know a program? There is a lot out there for basics, so there must be some for intermediates. Thanks

I just didn't like the pay. If I am at work 24 hours, I want to get paid for 24 hours. I think we are underpaid anyways so I rather work for a company who pays me right.

Here is some information I got in one of my threads: http://www.emtlife.com/showthread.php?t=15824 I didn't interview with them after I found out that they only pay 14 hours out of 24.

I am all for it. I advertised at my work and with all of my EMS friends.

Awesome congratulations. Good luck at the academy.

I really never worked out with an EMS or fire shirt on. My friends do and I don't really care. We have a lot of cops, firefighter and medics in my gym. Some work out with there agency t-shirts on. Sometimes I think my gym is the emergency services gym in my area. Everybody knows everybody from...

I just ordered the new California EMS plates. Did anybody else order one? I think they'll have to get 7500 pre-orders before we will get the plates. The plate looks really good. Order one so we can get them soon.;) Here is the link: http://www.emsa.ca.gov/about/license_plate/default.asp

I don't know which division he will work for, he just emailed me and told me LA County. I have to ask him.

My friend will take this test next week. My company didn't have one when I got hired.

Does anybody know what the Physical Agility Lift Test for AMR Los Angeles is? I know it is held at a doctors office but I would like to know what it is. Thanks.

I totally agree. Paramedic: On the front lines of medicine is a great book. I didn't read the Rescue 471 yet, but it is on my list. I just finished the book "Survival of the Sickest" by Dr. Sharon Moalem which isn't a paramedic book but a very good book about diseases.

Mine was a college program. It was not that great but very laid back. I studied anatomy before I started. I also bought my test book a few weeks earlier and read through it.

Read through your notes and your book again. Here is webpage which I used: www.prenhall.com/emtachieve/ Other than that just relax and don't overthink it.

I totally forgot about the JB Learning. I downloaded their web casts on iTunes. They are great to listen to it when you work out or when you drive to work. I also used the" Kapit Elson Coloring Anatomy Book". Amazon has it for $15. It helped me a lot to understand Anatomy.

When you volunteer you get experience and it looks really good on a resume. I volunteer for the Medical Reserve Corps. We have a lot of events. Last week we had a H1N1 vaccination clinic. Once a year we have a 48 hours MCI trainings event. With volunteering you get to know a lot of people...

Look at this thread: http://www.emtlife.com/showthread.php?t=16006 Maybe this helps.

I couldn't find any original NREMT practice books. I don't know if there are any. The Mosby's books are good, they have lot of practice questions. You can get them used on ebay or Amazon. The Prenhall web page test helped me a lot. It is very similar to the NREMT test. There is another...

I heard a lot of good things about this program. I just got information about their paramedic program in the mail. It looks very good.

Go on Youtube and put in EMT skills. You can find a few good videos there. Then just practice on a friend. I am sure you got your skill sheets, read them over and over again. Don't over-think it, relax it is not that bad. After that you can register for your NREMT exam. I would take at...
