NREMT recert requirements California

[galadriel]

OK, potentially stupid question here... I've just passed my skills recert and turned in all the paperwork for my new EMT B license (exp date 3/31/12). In California, do I have to be employed in order to renew my NREMT (exp date also 3/31/12)? I have at least 33 CE credits, also. Thanks!

You must be affiliated with a EMS agency or healthcare facility, ie...SNf, Hospital, Physch Facility

NREMT now requires 72 hour of ce's.

Are you talking about your California state card or your National card?

For California however I am fairly sure you do not have to be working as an EMT to recert so long as you have completed the skills test and the CE hours or refresher course.
