NREMT Recert by exam- 70 questions, passed

ok, just finished recert exam...stopped at 70 questions...we will see

Ok thanks, yeah I figured it out... I've been studying as well , my retest coming up on the 27th...using a prep site to help, although not the site I've used in previous successful attempts so we will see...

Hey Last! Welcome! This sounds like EVERYONE I've talked to...it takes time. Especially in FL. It took me over 2 years to just get an non emergency str transport job and 3 total years to get on with a private service... Someone correct me if I'm speaking ignorantly here but although it's...

Yep, RM responds with OFD ALS engines, and RM will transport. Due to levels, they don't respond to EVERY call but if the trk is available in service their going! They will also move their crews to open areas in the city if certain rescues are out on calls.

I would put whatever you feel is specific enough...I just signed up using my private EMS agency and sent a photo copy of my ID badge and received an email the next day stating I had been approved. Good Luck!

To clarify,only 911 "other than FD"

Florida does not offer reciprocity. You will have to sign up for the NR " assessment", (basically like taking the test over again)...once you pass that you will get your FL license, I don't remember what other fees are involved for the FL DOH... Yes it sucks...I had to do the same thing when I...

A lot of the hospitals are doing away with tech positions from what I hear...my advice, try Rural Metro, they do IFT and have a 911 contract with the city of Orlando. Also put a comment card in with American Ambulance, however they don't run emergency calls

Anyone who has recerted by exam please shine some light! I'm having a problem trying to figure out which option I choose to recert by exam....All the info says to "click on" recert by exam on the NR website but I cant seem to find that option anywhere. Does anyone know if Im supposed to just...

ATS- alternative transport services...intended for PT's that do not meet ambulance medical necessity...no care, treatment, or monitoring during transport. Also, usually only PT's that can self regulate their o2. I guess RMA in your area hires crews just to do this type of transport? In my area...

Could be , although I've taken them with food before too with the same results.

Random question. Can you consume too much vitamin C? I've been noticing that on the mornings when I take my 1000 mg vitamin C and drink OJ, I get pretty nauseated. Is there some scientific reasoning behind this, or the obvious answer of too much C?

100% agree... I wouldn't worry about including your cards until requested by hiring agency. Unless they specifically tell you otherwise. I've experienced both...One agency requested I bring legiable copies to interview the other requested them after I was given the written offer of employment.

so its probably gonna work out good that I will be sitting in a comm center.

Thanks for the reassurance. Did you already have the job before you had your injury? How long were you laid up before returning?

I would love for my biggest worry to be battery life. The last 8 months weve been using ferno's from like 1980. Lifting 300 plus patients gets real old after the 5th or 6th call. Just seems like even with the extra weight of the power cots, it would be worth it. Also, did someone say that...

I just left the orthopedic doc to find out that I ,not only, had an alvusion fracture, I also tore my ACL...He said that many people, after recovery, go back to their normal jobs and plalying sports. I just got hired as a dispatcher and was going to ride on the truck part time...Just worried...

Oh lord, please no duty uniform to interview.

Like everyone else said, Its not a necessity but I will always be an advocate of networking...Its kind of hard not to when your in and out of ERs all day and passing other agencies in the hallways. In today's times, it helps to have someone "put in a good word" from the inside. Especially to...
