nubain1 0 #1 August 29, 2006 I took my entrsnce test to get into the Critical Care medic class today. Holy Shit there was stuff on that test that I have'nt seen in years. I find out next week if I get in or not. I hope so. My only problem will be after the class and getting on a helocopter. I can just see me telling the pilot to take it to 5k and I'll meet them on the ground. One cool thing I found out today is that Dr. Bledsoe will be teaching part of the class.Talk about being humbled. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydiverbrian 0 #3 August 29, 2006 Do you have to have it to get on the bird? Around here you just need experience. Strangely enough, the birds are always hiring PMs. In a world full of people, only some want to fly... isn't that crazy! --Seal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymedic 0 #4 August 29, 2006 all the birds around here are the same way. They just want real live street experience. there is no class in the world that can substitute for that. But that being said...i just took the class to learn more. And I did. Marc otherwise known as Mr.Fallinwoman.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nubain1 0 #5 August 29, 2006 No,from the ones that I've seen you need 3-5 years street exp. acls, btls ,and pals. I will get pals renewed in the class. alreadt have acls and btls and almost 14 years street time. It just makes it easier if your having to compete with someone else applying for the same position.

Let it all expire, because girl I was engaged to didn't want me working around all the nurses. Financially it turned out to be a good career move, but I wanted to be a flight medic more than anything.... I'm jealous...Shhh... you hear that sound? That's the sound of nobody caring!
