    The AMC has a good number of what used to be EMTs (now classed as paramedics I think, shane?). Not sure where the remainer are classed with regard to PHECC levels.

        I would think they will get the EFR title,

        there may then be an option to do emt at later date.

          Whats EFR? Emergency First Responder?
          "Why, it appears that we appointed all of our worst generals to command the armies and we appointed all of our best generals to edit the newspapers. I mean, I found by reading a newspaper that these editor generals saw all of the defects plainly from the start but didn't tell me until it was too late. I'm willing to yield my place to these best generals and I'll do my best for the cause by editing a newspaper"

              it is a PHECC level.

                  Some of the Army Medical School personnel have done the BATLS course, but to the best of my knowledge have not done the BATLS Instructor course.
                  I went into an Italian restaurant and ordered dessert and they gave me tiramisu and a blindfolded horse and I said No, I said mask a pony (mascarpone)

                          He is a medical doctor but his appointment is non-tech so he is not a medical officer as such.

                            Cool. Keeping in mind that I'm NOT a df person, answer me this: Can he still practice medicine in bricins, even though he doesn't hold an appointment? Keeping in mind he's probably fully registered with the IMO.
