Hello all! I have a question and hopefully I can gain some insight through your responses. I was wondering if being a certified paramedic (w/ an associates in science EMS degree) would make it easier to apply to a nursing program with the hopes of being a trauma/ER nurse? By "easier" I'm referring to the experience gained as a paramedic; would you say a nurse w/ paramedic experience is a great asset to any ER/trauma center? hope to hear from someone soon
