In my humble opinion, yes you do lose some of the skills. CME is a vital tool to stay sharp as far as the theory and refresher topics go. A person does lose some of the "edge" thay had if they don't use the skill. It is not to to the total point of "use it or lose it", but the rust settles in.

I am a firm believer in CME both on line and classroom attendance. I am taking the PHLST sponsored by NAEMT, but also signed up for classroom training.

Whether you get rusty on skills, is partly up to you (not totally). Either you can take classes or if possible work with more than one agency .

Just my brain cells rambling again........
