What can your EMT-B's do??

Really? :shock:

And the Northeast. It's not part of their classes but the class and license for ETT in respiratory or cardiorespiratory arrest can be obtained as an add-on after they receive their license to practice.

Until 2007 Basics could also obtain "EMT-D" licensure and be allowed to manually defibrillate VF/pulseless VT. EMT-D was more common prior to the advent of AEDs though. I only know of one or two people that got it. Going "all the way" and completing our half-assed, non-Paramedic ALS level of licensure was/is far more common than EMT-D.

I drove through central/southern Illinois in November and while it didn't look like there was alot out there, it sounds like there isn't alot of intelligence there either with that kind of comment.
