So is there not a statewide certificate program like California's central registry? It's all done by county?

I sent emails to emergycare and Millcreek Paramedics to try and get some more information about them.
 
From what i remember, there are x amount of ems councils. You just apply for reciprocity at one, and your cert should be good statewide

Just talked to a redditor and found out the council for the NW region is EMMCO, I can't find any documents on their site for reciprocity, going to need to email them.
 
I hate that we can't edit posts...

E-mailed EMMCO about the reciprocity, now to wait.

Edit: Heard back and she's forwarding my email to another staff member who will email me back.

Yup! All I have to do is get an agency that will be willing to sponsor me before I move and my application can be processed with just my California cert!
 
Survived the first day... Seizing 8 year old for the first call. And then a 5kg infant with Tetraology of Fallot patient who got 50 of Lasix instead of 5, that one was a 2.5 hour transfer to a pediatric cardiac specialty unit.

Nice unicorn. You seem to get some of the most interesting stuff sometimes.

I don't think I'm a crap magnet like some, but I run some weird calls...

Was this a specialty/ NICU IFT? Also, was the kiddo frequently placed in the "knee-to-chest" position?

I hear this works well for these little guys. The toddlers, from what I have heard, tend to automatically squat when they feel a "TET spell" coming on. My understanding is that it's an intrinsic response many of them have.

Either way, interesting stuff.
 
Yup...I did it.

First shift after clearing my FTO process at the new gig and we haven't turned a wheel.

Worked an extra 12 and it was supposed to be an easy shift. Ran three calls, two of which were critical RSIs. I hate you.

Can I ride with you? I am barely scraping ALS calls together to finish field clinicals. :(

On a side note, running 7+ miles sucks just in case anyone was wondering....don't do it lol

Lol, I used to log about 30-35 miles/ week when I was younger. I love running, so my opinion is slightly biased.

I want to work up to that. Kind of schedule dependent. That being said, post run chocolate milk is amazing.
