Yup, but the downdraft really sucks when you're doing hoist operations. Did hoist training a week or two ago and it nearly knocked me over from the downdraft.ahhhh good ol' Sikorsky UH-60 Blackhawk.. great machine

Would love to go to the EMS expo, but am wayyyy too broke to afford flying out to Vegas. Next time it's on the east coast I'm hopefully in!

75 if you count the way back, gas stops, food stops, random cool thing you decide to go look at, etc. Besides, slow 14 hour days in the truck drive me nuts, I don't even know what I would do with multiple days.road trip? lol only a 35 hour drive. nbd

If you register with over 6 people then it is $270 for all 3 days. The pre-conference courses are an additional cost. I signed up for the cadaver lab (just need to check if P1 and P2 are the same info or if they are different) and some other ones. Going to be there from Sunday to Saturday haha.
For those that are looking just FYI on the hotel prices, on Thursday and Friday the prices are about double the normal cost.

We will have to meet up for a drink or 2. I booked at the cheapest hotel that was available on the site (Harrah's).

Two things: One is downdraft from the 'hawks is all thanks to their weight and disc loading...
And two: started a new ED job that's about 10 minutes from home. Compared to my previous job, that's practically spittin' distance!

Wouldn't hurt to apply. I'm sure experience is factored in when making a final job offer.

Honestly brother, I don't even know if it is worth the trip for a job that quotes me at $44.6, especially coming from Texas where I can reliably pull $50k without state taxes and a lower cost of living. Back of the envelope says I'd have to clear 60k to have the same modest lifestyle I do now, and that's a long way from 44.6.
That and the fact that CA "progressive" is not exactly Texas-progressive.

Yes, it counts toward CME.
The quality of instruction is top notch. Our instructors have a lot of experience, sprinkle in an appropriate amount of real world examples, but not didn't tell too many war stories. Some modules are taught by different instructors, so you're not stuck listening to the same voice all week long.
