We have better beer.................

Agreed. Unless it comes up in the interview somehow, respectful silence is best, otherwise you will likely come off as fake, brownosing, and invasive. If it does come up in the interview somehow...dont know how it would....then the less said the better...respectfully of course.

I wouldn't mention anything. Don't see it as being helpful to you in anyway.

Not sure where you live, but most hospitals that I am familiar with hire EMTs as techs.

Sorry, you failed the program. The program did no fail you. Suck it up, deal with it.

I am rather new here but reading this has made my eyes sore since I thought there was two sides to the story. It seems that Lifeguard will not awnser any questions beside the one he wants to awnser. Since all Lifeguard has done is complain about why he could not pass the test and has not said what the protocol was he failed on he has no desire to better him self and learn. Sorry to be the one to state the obvious and if its out of taste im sorry but if you cant cut the mustard and be willing to work hard and learn maybe EMS is not for you.

Yeah, nice rant. Again, you have FAILED to give any information that has been requested from you. I think this is a game for you.

I Would Like to Become an EMT when I Turn 16, What Would be the Requirements for Training? Would I be able to take training early so that when I turn 16 I am ready to go? I am 14 and turning 15 in December. I know I am sort of jumping the gun by thinking so far ahead, but I heard training takes awhile and I would like to be ready so that when I turn 16 in 1.45 years I will be able to start right away. And what training would I need? I live in PA and I can become an EMT when I turn 16. Thank You for your time and answers.

PCP Instructors have an obligation to exhibit exemplary behaviour in order to preserve the integrity of the industry. Paramedics is an important and learned profession. As members of this profession, PCP Instructors are expected to exhibit the highest standards of honesty and integrity. PCP Instructors have a direct and vital impact on the quality of life for all people. Accordingly, the services provided by PCP Instructors require honesty, impartiality, fairness, and equity, and must be dedicated to the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare. PCP Instructors must perform under a standard of professional behaviour that requires adherence to the highest principles of ethical conduct. The Paramedic Academy owes a duty of care, and I believe has performed below this standard of care. Ordinary reasonable care is not the minimum for Paramedic Instructors. EMA Licencing and the Emergency and Health Services Act should have a process in place that requires PCP Instructors to report public safety issues immediately, and without undue delay. I am not convinced that the Act allows EMA Licencing to learn about these ignored public safety concerns. A process must be developed that would ensure these public safety issues are reported.
