There probably would have been more prudent places to put it rather than on your forearm..

Odd.. I live in Alberta and the EMS system works differently. There is EMR (which I just finished), that was a 3 month course. There is EMT, which to my understanding, is on par with primary care paramedic level 1; that is a 10 month course at SAIT and a 6 month course at some other...

I believe it means that if anyone drops out then you'll be the first choice to replace that person. Of course I could be thinking of something else entirely. Good luck.

Yes I used the search button, but to no avail. I'm applying to be a med tech in the army. Here's my situation: I recently took an EMR course at SAIT as a way to become more competitive for the med tech trade, I completed the course with a 95% grade. The issue I face is the ACP (Alberta College...
