hello all i am a new member on emtlife.com i am a emt in nyc & taking the cme refresher program i like to listen to the emtb course or the emtb refresher course does anyone know were i can get tapes to listen?
thanks
 
I don't know about the refresher course since 99% of the emt-b course is hands on skills but if you have itunes there's several good podcasts out that I listen to while driving.
 
They still sell cassettes?
 
I will post these here in reply to a personal message from the OP to help others that may be looking for them also. There were a few threads a while back about decent podcasts but here's a list I have on my itunes.

You can download itunes free here
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/

All of the podcasts I have are available through itunes for free and some are available for download through websites if you prefer a different music player. In itunes go to the itunes store, click podcasts then click science and medicine and you can browse a full list of medicine related podcasts that may be of interest to you.

PHTLS podcast http://www.phtlspodcast.com/

Medic Cast http://www.mediccast.com/ there is one series directed at field medics, the same guy also does a nursing podcast, I listen to both.

Others that I enjoy listening to through itunes include:

Biology 4120/4220, it's an entire college level A&P course that the instructor has put on itunes.

American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) has a podcast, above our level really but good information.

Emergency Medicine Lecture Series, again directed more at hospital providers but some good information to be had just learning disease processes and such.

EMS: Pharmacology for the prehospital professional, some good information but not nearly as technical as some of the others. Seems much like our entire education and EMS specific podcasts are very elementary.

Medpod 101/ learn medicine, another good one for learning disease processes, again pretty advanced but that's a good thing.

The Merck Manual of patient symptoms, everyone probably knows about the merck manual, this is pretty much a book on tape of that.

There are others but those are the major ones that I listen to.
 
I am listening to a pod cast that i subscribe to called Authorized Transmissions and right now they are talkin with Dr. Bledsoe its very interesting to hear his thoughts on somethings...
 
Be sure to clarify if these programs will count within your home state or not. Some will not accept but a certain number of hours or those that have to be cleared by the certification agency. For example NREMT only will allow a pre-set number of hours usable.

I thought he was just listening to them prior to taking the refresher course. to my knowledge CA requires most of your CE's to be Lectured based
 
Medic Cast http://www.mediccast.com/ there is one series directed at field medics, the same guy also does a nursing podcast, I listen to both.

I did not know that there was a pod cast for EMS. I have download and listing to it now. Thank you for the info. If there are any other pod cast please let me know, I am really like this one so far.

Thank you
