I guess this would mainly be directed at any EMTs or Paramedics in TN, but feel free to add your thoughts if you're not.
This is based off of the Taking the next step... thread...
How does the current scope of practice for Tennessee work in the real world/field? Being that TN only has the EMT-IV and Paramedic ranks. Are the EMT-IVs basically glorified EMT-Bs?
Does this affect pay in any way, as opposed to a state where they have actual "B" and "I/Advanced" ranks?
Would you consider the training sufficient, being that they've incorporated advanced airway, IV, etc into the Basic class?
I'm starting on the 26th (Aug), and was just curious...
