EMS Education - Creating the Best, Part 1

EMS Education is the topic this month with Falon Steiner, EMS Manager of Initial EMS Training. What are the basics? What changes do instructors need to make in teaching methodology?

EMT programs are still under oversite by the state. The paramedic programs have oversight from the Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP) is a programmatic post-secondary accrediting organization recognized by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). All training has been amended to be more of an ongoing competency-based evaluation vs. a course final memorization competency review.
