we dont get a ton of maternal/child exposure in the medic course but we get basic exposure as EMT-B's...what some people dont understand that I want to put out there is that we go through 7 months of tech school...then we spend a few more months in a military medical facility (hospital) doing all we learned and applying it to everyday life. I've personally worked on every floor and had a blast. everything from labor & delivery to the ER and even in the OR...aswell as all the medical and surgical floors and they even stick us in the medical admin for a little while, not to mention every type of clinic you can think of. We get to be a "jack of all trades master of none" kinda deal
I'm an Air Force Medic and have had no luck challenging the test here on the east coast. It's really frustrating. I'm about ready to break down and just take the LPN course
Hey everyone
I am a military medic and one of my instructors from tech school awhile back suggested challenging the LPN test when we get to our home states because our curriculum is very much the same. Do you all, as LPN's, think this is a decent idea? I've been an EMT-B for a long time and its time to move up in the world
