I was wondering if anybody knew any accelerated paramedic programs (not including externship).
I know there is an old thread about summer paramedic programs, but before you start saying "thats too short", I have my AEMT through the NREMT and my EMT-Intermediate through the state. I have my ACLS, PALS, and PHTLS. Only things that I can't do are RSIs and administering sedatives like versed. I also received training as a FMF corpsman which included trauma stuff like cricothyrotomy and needle T's. I'm also a year away from a BS in Bio- health sciences that include courses in advanced A&P, pathophysiology, clinical pharmacology, biochem, o-chem...etc.
I just don't want to sit in a class for a year going over stuff I did and starting IVs on dummies.
