from Profess EMS · host Ben Tacy

I’ve been asked more times than I would like to count “how long should I be an EMT” or “what can I do to get ready” regarding entering a Paramedic program. I wish there was a secret recipe of what is needed as a one-size-fits-all approach, but there simply isn’t. EMS is a fast-paced industry and so are the academics. You wouldn’t start a treadmill on a fast speed and just hop on, right? No…. because you’re going to faceplant. You get a feel for the speed and get your legs moving and timing down before you commit…that’s academic momentum. Acid-base balance is wayyyyy easier to figure out than a life-school balance…. Sometimes the hardest part is just figuring out how to be a student.
