disabled emt

The ambulance service I work for is trying to have me work in the ER. We are a critical access hospital (less than 15 pts a day on average). I have heard conflicting stories that I have to get what Washington calls a Health Care Provider. Other people have told me that I don't have to. It has also been brought up that as soon as an EMT-B up to an EMT-P sets foot in a hospital, they are stripped of there ability to do pt care. It's a little confusing to me and I would like to have some unbiased opinions and answers.

1. Do you have to have a special certification or training to work in an ER at your scope?

2. Is it true that you are stripped of your cert once you are inside of a hospital?

Thank all of you in Advance
