Recertification Question

[Awfiss]

Howdy!

The easiest way to recert with NR for Paramedics (in my opinion) is to take the CBT test.

1. It's $110

2. Begining Jan 2013, the CBT test for NR includes the National EMS scope of practice, which means if you take the test to recert and pass it, you will NOT have to take a transition course and your NR # which begins with a P will change to an M, meaning your a NRP vs. NREMT-P now.

3. If you pass, you can simply download the recert form (only one form to send in buddy!), have your Med director & training person sign it (plus you sign it too), and you send that in with your ACLS & CPR cards, and its a done deal for two yrs.

Nice eh?

BTW, I have used the CBT test to recert the last three cycles. This beats the heck out of chasing courses, (and paying for those buggers) and trying to find a transition course, which BTW, now most states are just including new EMS scope of practice subject in thier 48 hr refreshers and blessing them as transition approved (which they are, all though all states may vary on what they include in thier courses).

Hope this is pretty simply explained.

Good luck and please do go to the site and check it out and call the NR to confirm. No need to be an official NR person to pass out this info!

Be safe!

hence the reason why you will if Batman ever comes to save your sorry ass that it will be the real batman and not me. You best remember that now.

And Batman's middle aged now so I'm sure he's let himself go. You never see him working out do you?

Actually, with all the fistfights and rope climbing, probably a better workout than going to a gym.

The Pilates classes in the Batcave ain't hurting either......

With Alexis Wright?

Sorry, but who?

She was the Zumba instructor with a side business of getting her customers off in Kennebunk Maine.

She recently pled guilty to 50 counts and is doing short time in the county hotel. Her list of customers included many influential business men and politicians in that area.

[Richard B the EMT]

Are we talking Kennebunk or KennebunkPORT? The first I've never heard of, the second, I have a former girlfriend living there.

She's a psychic, not a Zumba instructor, by the way, my friend in Maine.

They're two different towns. Kennebunk is up the road from Kennebunkport.

And you tell yourself anything you need to about your friend in Maine.

Won't find many working class folks living in KB port. Home of many idyll rich & their summer homes.
