Was K-89 Have a Burglary in progress, at the ranch outside of town, requests back up assistance--Wow today is your day--K10- and K-9 are enroute to help you Thank you Dispatch for kindness... K-89 was my car number in Victor Colorado Dispatch was the Teller County Sheriffs Office 8)

With all the hassles at the federal level as to who actually is dealing EMS- DOT/NHTSA or DHS, it is about time that new EMS education standards have come out- Were a growing professional and the training has changed over the years, and no state has the same requirements.. But maybe all will adopt one standard for of us 8)

Well I soon to be a NREMT again EMT----so I can keep my Wyoming and Colorado Certification..Class was good and liveleluy and I actually rembered some of the dumb NREMT practical sheets.. you also can tell I have been a EMT for a while, by what Short cuts I took during the Practical Skills. DO you find that refreshers are sometimes to short...

The new National Incident Management System Framework will be out in March, However you can get a small update page from FEMA at this time. Stay abreasts of Changes that might affext you. All volunteer Medical, Search and Rescue groups, States etc. must be Compliant with NIMS in the Near Future.. or no more Fed Money.. Dave Pierce Lt Col. CAP

Police Based EMS works fine some areas, but my belief is that it will not work everywhere, I believe though that State Police Officers/ State Patrol Officers should be trained to at EMT standards, Due to the remoteness of there travels.. Dave NREMT-B Retired LE Officer

I love Flight Crews, Though What I do is different than anyone else in the City( Work Search and Rescue), We have used Civilians flights as needed, but usually use Miliary (MAST) crews for med help/assistance on Searches.. We salute all the Flight Paragods and Nurses and of course the Pilots of the Choppers

EMS personnel should not carry,unless acting as a Tac Medic. Better to leave 31,000 dollar vehicle and gear behind and save your own life then try to protect it. Vehicle can be replace if needed and so can the equipment, that what they have insurance for.

Yep Video's are hard to find, and where do find the idiots guide to Pre hospital Care--been relying on powerpoints and found a few here, doing one now on NIMS..Good Luck n0ssb

[/font:74f18f4ffd] Well I deff would go with the HUMPME part--Not the DUMPME part.. But here I'm begging as Usual HUMPME......... DAve

[/font:aa62c5861b] [c olor=blue] There is nothing wrong with a Civilian being used as a Tactical Medic on a SWAT/TAC team, Denver uses Paramedics from Denver Health that they have trained in the use of Firearms and team tactics.. They work well together..They keep a ger bag in there amb, that has there swat gear in it and have it when needed at a scene.. I have been a Law enforcement officer for 27 years and a EMT for 20 plus years and during that time, acted as a Tac Medic on a active Federal Team, Glad I'm retired, but always willing to work as a Tac Medic..

No nothing about that association we use American Heart for majority of Colorado classes 8)
