I have been a EMT-B for a year and now I am in school now to get my Paramedic associates degree. I also wanted to bring to everyones attention a cert that only Indiana recognizes of Advanced EMT-B. They are allowed to start IVs and use the heart monitor but can only interpret normal sinus, sinus tach, sinus bradycardia, v fib, v tach and asystole.

Could you elaborate on the reasoning behind these allowances? Can they intubate? Can they treat the lethal dysrhythmias that they are "allowed" to interpret?

And how much time do they generally waste on a critical patient attempting to interpret something they can't treat? :?

I believe the CC stands for "cheap certificate" since it is considerably cheaper and faster than a real paramedic school.

Or it might actually mean "can't certify" since the National Registry and most other states won't recognize it. 8)

SPELL CHECKED: No errors found. :lol:
