Thanks Med Tech. That definitely makes sense.

I'm on a current PCP program at the JI in BC, so I'll share what little info I have. Upon completion of the PCP program, it is now mandatory for us to take the licensing examination in BC. (the military is paying the licensing fee) When you pass these exams, you are now a licensed PCP in B.C...

Most Med Techs on my course, and on the course behind me managed to get their SQ done before being loaded on their QL3's. The majority of us had a 3-6 month wait in Borden before our Clinical portion of our QL3's, so we were sent to Meaford/Gagetown/Shilo for our SQ. Those that haven't had a...

I understand that, I guess I should have clarified myself. What I am wondering is where he got his info that it is suggested Med Techs enter the trade with previous paramedic training. From experience, most med techs are entering with little/no experience. Even those that are current PCP...

I am not sure I understand your question.. "enter with PCP training?" Can you please clarify what it is you are looking for?

Just finished my last hospital shift for this portion of my practicum. I really enjoyed being in the ER today! Have a couple days off now, before I work on-car (ambulance) later this weekend. I'm really loving this PCP course.  ;D

HAHA, ya I know. I think they're trying to make me feel better after calling me a Nerd! But, I've known I was one for a loooong time.  :)

Nice catch! Good thing I never said I was perfect.  ;)

I wish! I may be decent with English... but my math skills are pretty close to pathetic!

It's very easy to get caught by many of these "commonly confused" words. I was very lucky to have amazing English teachers in both High School & University, who took time to help us learn the proper uses of many of these words. I try to read often, in order to keep my reading comprehension...

Is the PCP portion that was just extended, being shortened for the next course? I'm on the current course (1st extended to 6 months) out in Chilliwack at the Justice Institute, and our program is 125 training days, plus 5 days for licensing.

Relaxing after a tough, yet enjoyable, bootcamp PT class this evening. Getting ready for another day at the paramedic academy tomorrow. One month down, 5 to go.  :)

Wish I would have seen this post yesterday. Went to see this movie today with a few friends, and it was junk. I left feeling pretty disappointed as well.

Just finished a good run, now for a bit more study time, and then off to bed. Morning comes way too fast when you have school.  :blotto: Although today was a good day because we got to disect the organs of a 70kg pig. It was sweet!

I Love Siberian Huskies!! Growing up we had one, and he was so beautiful and such a great family pet. I hope to have another one day, when I have the space for them. I'm planning to get a pug once I am posted.  ;D They're so ugly, they're cute!

Relaxing back in my room after a beautiful day touring Vancouver. I love this beautiful sunny weather!

I'm out of luck I suppose, as I'm a 63, not a 70. Yup, I'm a lil' squirt! Thanks anyways!

You have any "originals" sitting around in a kit pile in my size? haha. I totally agree with you Vern!
