Paramedic Refresher Course Description:
The curriculum guidelines will be the objectives of the 2001 US DOT EMT-Paramedic Refresher Course. The program will consist of a Monday-Thursday lecture-style component, followed by three OPTIONAL days where participants may take ACLS, PALS, and ITLS refresher courses.
Completion of the lecture component will meet all NREMT-P mandatory and flexible core content areas with the exception of 8 hours in airway, breathing, cardiology and 8 hours in OB/Peds. If participants elect to take the optional ACLS and PALS refresher modules then ALL hours will be met for the required 48 hour paramedic refresher course. If participants elect to take the ITLS refresher module then those hours may be applied toward the additional 24 hours that are mandated by the NREMT. Completion of the entire program will result in participants departing with 56 hours of CE and renewed ACLS, PALS, and ITLS provider cards.
Paramedic Refresher Course Length
32 hours (02/22/10 - 02/25/10, 8a-5p each day) – Lecture component
8 hours (02/26/10, 8a-5p) for ACLS refresher
8 hours (02/27/10, 8a-5p) for PALS refresher
8 hours (02/28/10, 8a-5p) for ITLS refresher
Instructors
Paramedic refresher course instructors will be content area experts and will consist of EMT-Ps, RNs, PAs, and MDs.
Target Audience
This course is intended for NREMT-Paramedic certified providers who are preparing for NREMT-P recertification and need CE topics/hours to meet refresher requirements. It is also appropriate for individuals who simply need EMT-P level CE for any reason. NC participants should ensure that their EMS System will accept CE from an outside entity.
NORTH CAROLINA PERSONNEL ONLY: If your NC EMT-P credential has EXPIRED you will need to find a refresher program that includes the NCOEMS mandated Technical Scope of Practice Evaluation (TSOPE). This program does not include a TSOPE practical component, and thus cannot be used to renew an EXPIRED credential.
