I'm in


I passed my National Registry Exam for Emergency Medical Technicians last Wednesday! Now, all I have to do wait for ten to fifteen days until I receive my National Certification card, then I will be good to apply at Emergency Rooms and possibly Fire Depts. Next month, I am starting my Fire Academy at Auburn Career Center and once that is over, I will be a Firefighter/EMT and then it is off to Paramedic School. But, that won't be anytime soon. I want to get some experience in the EMT field and experience actual runs before I go into a year long class, that will make me totally devote my time to. Also, thanks to everyone who is on Blogger and Facebook who commented on my Facebook post. Have a good one!

Later days.

Ready to go.


Well I am all signed up to take the National Registry EMT exam. Next Wednesday is the day where it all happens. I'll be, and I have been studying like mad the past couple days so that I am well prepared for it. Also, my 240 class might be starting up again next month. It was cancelled in December of last year because there was a lack of participants and lack of payment. But, hopefully it will all work out this time. Keepin' my fingers crossed. With all of that, I am also set for my classes at Lakeland for this semester. Thankfully I am only taking 3 of my fire classes this semester, but from the description on the classes, that will be plenty. I'm going to be pretty busy now jamming wonderful knowledge in my noggin. Have a good day!

Frustration

The past couple of days, I have been waiting on my authorization to test for the National Registry for Emergency Medical Technicians. I have completed all of my hours of training and my class to be eligible to sign up for my certification exam. Unfortunately, every time I log onto the National Registry's website, it says that I am not eligible to take the test and I need my EMT class instructor to accept me to take the test. I called my instructor the other day and he said that I was all set up to take the test.... So basically my EMT instructor has me ready to test but the National Registry doesn't... I'm trying to figure out this frustrating dilemma and hopefully this all works out soon because I need to take this National Registry Test soon.
