I'm particularly interested in what other MA EMTs think about this...

Today I was on the MA DOH verification site and I saw that, when you search for an individual's certification there are two options - you could either click on their linked name or you could select "download file" which creates a txt file of the search results.

The web version does not show your full address (just your city and zip), but when you download the file, it actually shows your full street address.

1) I'm not sure if this is by design or not. Has anyone noticed this?

2) I'm not particularly crazy about this. I understand that there is some element of the information being public record, but think about the idea that any patient you treat could show up at your door. Some folks make it a point not to list their address, which is admittedly more difficult with the end of the phone book.

Thoughts?

Try switching your address on file to your employers address. That way any cert stuff will be mailed there, and no one can visit your residence.

They still spell my name wrong on the lookup, I've gotten it corrected on the card but online it's still wrong
