[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An EMT has 2-3 months of training, a paramedic has 1-2 yrs, not the same training or scope, and this thread is about EMTs.[/quote] Our nephew did his “2-3 months” of EMT training several years ago. Since then he’s interacted with thousands of patients and seen every type of call. He’s now certified for technical rescue, and TEMS/TCCC and became a TEMS instructor. Unlike 99% of EMTs, Paramedics, Resident, etc., he enters hot zones in the SWAT stack to provide medical care under potential fire. He’s fully integrated with SWAT on call outs and carries the same weapons they do to augment structure breaching and room clearing. You’d say he’s just an EMT. [/quote] Yeah, he is a civilian EMT in the U.S. He isn’t a Special Forces medic/corpsman deployed to Afghanistan/Iraq circa 2008 [/quote]
