I just started an EGK Interp course at the community college where I did my EMT-1 training. I have to say it is an eye opener, I started to realize how little I knew or understood about the function of the human heart. The course is very exciting and challenging, I have found myself yearning for more knowledge on the heart itself and have spent a small fortune on just about everything I can get my hands on relating to the anatomy and physiology of the heart.
I am now seriously considering a career path change, maybe, perhaps working in the field of cardiology, as maybe a monitor tech or ekg/ecg tech, but just a thought at the moment.
I took the course as a way to expand my general knowledge, and was wondering how an individual who is knowledgeable and qualified in this area can benefit an EMT/Paramedic? Would it make one a more desireable EMT/Medic?
Any thoughts, input or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
