I see, yeah I haven't applied just an I still need to get my class F.  I'm just finishing off highschool.  I have a co-op this seemster with the local fire department, and then next semester I have one with the EMS.

True, and thats soemthign I jsut thought of recently.  I was originally considering that because you need level c rescuer to take a paramedic course.

Well a fellow unit memebr jsut got his cerrtification back today.  It's only Class B REscuer certificartion, and of course Standard First-Aid.  So looks like i'll have to take a seperate course to get class C.

Yeah mine was 2 days, and I had a Medic from 23 Field Ambulance teach it.

I'm thinking I might goto Conestoga for Primary Care Paramedic.  Also just wondering, the first-aid through BMQ what level of certification does that translate to civi side?

Awesome, I think i'll look into that.  Thanks

Really, know of any places that offer programs like this?

That's already my plan, but thats about a 2 year course, so that'd be about 3 years,  So I might have to stick infantry for a while and do my DP1.

No kidding eh? Looks like it's Infantry for me.

Well I took my first-aid in BMQ and loved it and want to get more involved with health-care.  I love my unit and all, but I jsut thinking Medic would be more interesting, and help me career wise aswell. It's also not looking to good as I found this thread on somebody in the exact same boat as...

I'm currently infantry in RHFC but I would like to remusted to Medic, most likely 23 Field Ambulance.  I'm SQ qualified and was wondering what steps I should take to switch?

One question from somebody who has no idea on this whole thing.  What if somebody had no civi training as a paramedic or in the medical field in general.  Any tips on becoming a medic or any advise in general?
