February 25, 201511 yr So if I'm reading your rant correctly, No one can call me a salesman any more. I'm a Sr. Manager National Accounts!! And Since my job required a 4 year degree you can throw in the fact I have a Bachelor of Science when addressing me.

February 25, 201511 yr Kind of off topic, buy my sister will ask everyone treating her or family, where they graduated in their class. This included the ER doctor that was working on my dad after he had his heart attack. I wonder if she was not happy with his answer if she would have asked for a different doctor? Doesn't she know everyone graduated top ten?

February 25, 201511 yr Greatly appreciate what you do Ram...this from a former "non practicing" EMT. Had my license in the early 90's but it was never my "job". With that said, not gonna join you on this rant. Don't know about where you are, but where I am on many many calls, EMT and or paramedics, police and fire may all show up, regardless of what the situation might be. And someone always gets there first. So they all, at one time or another, are a "first responder" regardless of what their primary job might be. Just my take.
February 25, 201511 yr Author So is a paramedic educated/trained similarly to an RN? Paramedic and RN is always compared to one anther, the education is similar, but different. The short answer to your question is, yes. Paramedic education is a little behind the education of RN's but the process is going in the same direction. Years ago, nurses were primarily educated in Nursing Schools located at hospitals. Now, virtually all nursing programs are offered though colleges and assigned associate degrees with bachelor's, master's and doctorate degrees available. Paramedic education is currently in transition to the same college based programs with associate degrees attached after being independent programs previously. I started the first college based, degree seeking Paramedic Program in my half of the state and only the third such program in the state, only the second to receive full accreditation. Paramedic's are educated in virtually everything RN's are educated in and the current AAS degree has exactly the same Gen Ed, pre-reqs and co-reqs as the RN program.
February 25, 201511 yr Author Can't I just call you honey or sweetie? I won't argue with terms of endearment. Better then a lot of other things I've been called.

February 25, 201511 yr I agree with the B and the S part, all the way. (Word filter got me again....) Got me too! I should have just went for my associate degree.
