"Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) Regulations By Adam Willoughby
Following three public comment periods, the proposed changes to the EMT Regulations received unanimous approval by the EMS Commission March 21st. The four main regulation changes are: 1) Incorporate the National EMS Education Standards for EMT training; 2) Increase the required EMT course hours from 120 to 160 hours (136 hours of didactic training and 24 hours of clinical experience) and the minimum number of patient contacts from 5 to 10; 3) Amend the scope of practice to mirror the National EMS Scope of Practice Model; and 4) Clean-up sections of the regulations to provide more clarity."
