That's what my plans were - to go from an EMT-B to an EMT-Paramedic - but after reading your letter, I decided to wait and get ALOT more experience in the field as a basic. The limitations put on a EMT - Basic or even an EMT - Intermediate are frustrating because you want to do everything you can for your patient. But like you said - judgement is the number one trait needed to effectively treat patients. THANKS!
