Hilary gates is a real life educator at American University who happened to join EMS and fall in love with it. The program she works with, Prodigy EMS, is at the forefront of EMS education. As we move forward out of our collective nightmare that has been the past two years, Ed and Anna discuss how EMS education can grow from here. Hilary speaks with focus and passion about expanding the role of EMTs and medics moving forward and what we can do as educators and providers in the classroom to take the lessons from the past two years and implement them to make systems better for their patients. #FOAMED #FOAMEMS.
We pull another episode out of our vault to talk about con ed…Dan, Kevin, and Jess talk about continuing education! We all have to do it; but some is better than others. Why is yours bad? Why is someone else’s good? And what is the value of “alphabet soup” classes in EMS continuing education? Do we need to think about another way?
Continuing Education is more than reading slides off a page; it’s about instructors with expertise and passion, sharing their experience with students and encouraging them to learn and practice the material.
