What vaccinations/tests do you have get prier to going on your EMS Ride along for New Jersey? Ex. Blood test, needles, what? I recently joined Hopatcong Ambulence Squad, and so far, I know I need my TB test done. Are there certain types of Hepititis needles you need to get? Do the Hepititis needles every expire? Last time I got mine, was August 9, 1995. So, I'm unsure if I need to get it renewed, or what. I am also unsure of something else. When I was talking to one of my Advisers on the EMS Explorer's group, they said I need to get my Blood pathogens done. What is that? Sometest with a needle or what? Thanks! This will help me in the long run, as I start my EMS training hopefully soon!
