We don't have a Paramedic shortage because of @CoAEMSP or National Registry of EMTs. We have a lack of desire on the part of Paramedics to work on ambulances, b/c it isn't typically an attractive environment. This is a leadership/workforce culture problem, not an accreditation or testing problem.
We keep having the same old debates in EMS which completely miss the point. To fix ourselves, we need to understand what it means to build a vibrant profession. Thanks to National Association of EMS Educators @medicmindset & Prodigy EMS for the platform to talk about this. medicmindset.com/2022/08/06/get…
