    Stepped down from my HEMS job on Monday; start my first full time nursing gig this month (ICU) Not happy about it, but its part of the career progression.

    Recert by exam submission

    Everything is done; this is the skills verification. I've done this once before but I cannot remember the email they provided for me to submit the documents to

    Recert by exam submission

    Does anyone have the email for NREMT to send the recert by exam form? Last recert cycle I mailed it in and they lost it, so I ended up emailing it and I cannot remember the address.

    Stopping by to say hello. Came by the forum to hunt down study material recommendation. Its weird/cool to come back here. Joined as an emt student trying to get exposure and figure out what I was getting into... now I'm a flight paramedic and most recently, an ICU nurse.

    Community Paramedic (CP-C exam)

    Has anyone taken this exam, and if so what do you feel is solid study material? I know there is a textbook now, but I've seen atrocious reviews on it. Thanks.

    Gun Porn

    Anyone carry a Glock 26 or 19? I tried the 43 and hated it as far as shooting goes, but loved it for carry. Coming from an XD-S, and probably going from 3 o'clock carry to appendix.

    Flight suit sizes

    Hey guys, its time for me to order a new flight suit through the company. I have been wearing a 42R (5'9"), and I feel like there's too much slack in the crotch and too long in the legs. I am seeing roughly a 2" inseam difference with most companies between an S and an R. What are you guys...

    I may try the haix. I prefer a lighter, sporty fit versus heavier/bulkier. But those features can be hard to find in a waterproof/slip proof setup. Its been a while since I have boot shopped, I started with 5.11 due to recommendations and bought a set of Bates mid-shift when my 5.11...

    What kind of boots does everyone rock now? I'm on my second set of Bates and it's time to retire them. Tried 5.11, they fall apart albeit very comfortable. I need something with a side zip for long shifts. Anyone got experience with HAIX?

    So on NREMT you can recert online via the refresher route, but if you choose the exam you must mail it in. HOW DUMB.

    sooo, I have acquired a job for Air Methods. I have to fly to Denver for orientation. I have never flown. Tips or suggestions? I figured someone here may have made this trip before

    Lower back maintenance

    I have a minor issue with my L5/S1 (vertebrae is angulated, and at one point was putting pressure on the sciatic nerve). Its day to day, some days I feel 17 again some days I feel 45. I accept this as part of my life, but there is probably something I can do to improve the consistent day to day...

    I worked a 12 for holiday pay, ran one call, then had a beer after. I am happy.

    FP-C

    I will also say the FP-C is the more acquired exam, probably due to flight services beginning to require it. My CCP-C number is three digits, versus four for my FP-C. That may give people a false, knee jerk indication that it is more difficult as well.

    FP-C

    I have taken both, and while very similar and overlap in content- I found the CCPC to be slightly harder. Reason being is the removal of flight safety and physiology and the addition of the ground operations aspect- which I did not prepare for and has always been a weakness of mine. The exam...

    Paramedic Resume

    Hey all, it has been quite a while since I have been here. I am gearing up to apply for some part time flight jobs in the area. At least one requires a resume to complete an application, therefore I will need to build one. I have been able to skirt by for five years in EMS without one. Does...
