    NCM-SEP Med Tech career path

    Remember if you wish to moonlight outside the CF you MUST have your CO's approval.  There are QR&O's that regulate this.  I would ask when you arrive at you first unit.  Most units do have a MCSP program set up for you to do amb ride along time.  This is not a paid benefit meaning the civi...

    Border medic I have spoken with the QL 3 cell here at the school.  After completion of your SEP PCP program you will be attending the SQ course then coming to Borden to do the in house QL 3 portion of your training.  This will include both a clinical and a field phase.  You will not have to go...

    NCM-SEP Med Tech career path

    I will clarify this tomorrow from the school but my understanding is the 16 weeks in Borden is separate from the PCP course.  Normally you would do your courses in this order 1 BMQ 2 SQ 3 Borden clinical phase 4 PCP Chilliwack/Quebec 5 Borden field Phase. Sep may be run differently however the...

    Do Canadian nursing officers carry guns like infantry soldiers?

    And from the offical Chaplain Manual  http://www.cmp-cpm.forces.gc.ca/cfcb-bsafc/pub/doc/acm-maft-eng.pdf 30. For Canadian chaplains appropriate conduct has been clearly defined by Branch policy. That this policy may differ from that of other nations and forces is ultimately not relevant. The...

    Do Canadian nursing officers carry guns like infantry soldiers?

    I doubt the individual was a padre.  Here is a link to the maple leaf article from Feb 10 clearly indicating that the padres don't carry weapons. http://www.forces.gc.ca/site/commun/ml-fe/article-eng.asp?id=5903 And the recruiting website states as follows: Only the chaplain can achieve this...

    ‘I am a piper. A soldier has died, so I must play.’

    Although this is a well written article, the writter is incorrect about the first ramp ceremony.  Marc Leger, Ainsworth Dwyer, Nathan Smith and Richar Green were the first Canadian ramp ceremony held in Apr 2002.  I believe the piper's first ramp ceremony was Pte Woodfield.  Having attended the...

    Diabetics in the CF

    And most G4 permanent categories are often medically released (although it might not be immediate. some get accommodations for up to 3 years).  There are very few jobs for a Type 1 DM in the CF.  In my 23 years of medicine in the CF most are released due to the nature of the universality of...

    Medcat, release waiver

    You can release in accordance to your contract even if you are on a Pcat or Tcat.  You should be assigned a Case Manager at your medical clinic who will assist you with the ins and outs of a PCat.  I don't recommend anyone put in a release until they have spoken with their Case Manager.  You...

    Prior diagnosis of sleep apnea

    I echo Michael's post go to the recruiting center.  But as a Physician Assistant the big question I have is do you use a CPAP machine if not then sleep apnea isn't a big deal other than to your poor roommate who may have to put up with you possible snorring.  If you do then only the recruiting...

    MPRR Clarifying

    You may very well have G1 O1 as we see a trend of personnel who enrolled in the CF in the mid to late 80's who for some reason where assigned these numbers.  Unless we really need to change them they were left as is.  More because there are enough files sitting at DMed Pol that need review, we...
