Our 12-month Paramedic program is designed for students that are actively working in EMS by meeting for class only one day a week. Students can choose a clinical site that is affiliated with NEEMSI (See affiliations page). Students can schedule their clinical hours to work around their work schedule. Our program consists of 7 Modules: Module 1: Cardiology, Airway and Pharmacology I Module 2: Cardiology, Airway and Pharmacology II Module 3: Special Patient Demographics (Cradle to grave) Module 4: Medical and Trauma Emergencies I Module 5: Medical and Trauma Emergencies II Module 6: Capstone Module 7: Online Operations Module This Program will consist of 4 parts: In class (392 Hours): The class will meet once a week for 8 hours for the duration of the course with major holidays and weather considered. Each morning will consist of a quiz followed by lecture. Every afternoon will involve some type of lab, group activity, simulation or role playing. NEEMSI students have access to the online journal Prehospital Emergency Care. Lab (128 Hours): One day will be dedicated solely to labs every 3-4 weeks. Our labs will involve ALS skills, and simulation in our breakout rooms. Our breakout rooms mimic 4 specific prehospital settings; an apartment living room, an outdoor setting, a nursing home and a pediatric room. We use iSimulate monitors and stethoscopes, a Laerdal high fidelity mannequin, multiple kinds of video laryngoscopes and an ambulance simulator. Online (800 Hours): There will be an online portion for each module. Most of our operations topics will be compiled into an “Online Operations Module (160 Hours).” This module will open at the beginning of module 3 and close at the end of module 5, giving our students 26 weeks total to complete the module. The student must pass the module with an 80% or higher to continue in the program. The operations module is meant to cater to the student’s schedule. All topics covered in this operations module are compliant with National Emergency Medical Services Education Standards 2021. Clinical (588 Hours): Our program has 250 hours in the hospital and 338 hours in the field. The projected hours per week for clinical time is 12 hours per week and will begin after competency is demonstrated in Module 1. Out of the 338 field hours, 200 will be capstone with a verified preceptor and the student must document 20 Successful team leads. Upon completion of clinical hours, students will meet all skill requirements in compliance with Student Minimum competencies established by CoAEMSP/ CAAHEP.
