I am so confused about the reciprocity process for Florida. AHHH!!!!! Every time I call the EMS office I get even more confused because they give me a different answer. I ask simply that if you have not gone through the process yourself or are not POSITIVE on your answer please do not throw your 2 cents in and confuse me more, lol.
I just completely my written exam and practical skills exam for Indiana on 7-24-10. I moved to Florida immediately following. I want to know if it is possible for me to go ahead and apply to take the Florida test now or do I have to wait until I actually get my certification in the mail? I feel it makes since in my head to think that I should be able to submit a letter saying a completed an EMT course and that should satisfy the requirements it would be just like I took the course here in Florida. The application states that you can take the exam if you have completed a FL approved EMT course. How do I know if the course I took in Indiana would meet the requirements of the Florida course?
What has confused me most is the last individual I spoke with at the Florida EMS Office said it would be easier to wait until I get my Cert from Indiana because then I could just apply for my Florida License and I wouldn't actually have to take the test because Florida would approve my license just because I had the cert in Indiana. I am just getting really frustrated because these are the people that you are suppose to call with questions and they don't seem to have consistent answers.
