  1. How useful is EMT-B cert as an RN?

    I am both a R.N. and a EMT-Paramedic, every cert. helps without a doubt. If nothing else you'll have that much more knowledge to help giude you. As far as flight nursing, the R.N./EMT-P combination...
  2. Need help with article about EMS

  12. Need Help!!`

    Is your 90day GN liscense still valid? That will allow you to work pending the NCLEX
  13. About scrubs..

    I used whatever the school offered but the "Cargo style" which is similar to what EMS wears is probably the way to go. You can NEVER have enough pockets IMO. As a Paramedic turned R.N. I'd go w/ the...
