As new EMTs and paramedics are educated and released onto the street either as part of their academy or college program or in new job placements, the time spent shadowing and learning alongside an experienced emergency medical provider is invaluable. Why, then, does this job have no defined structure or certification associated with it? One of the most important things a student EMT or paramedic will do is pick up the tricks, skills and trade craft of their preceptor while riding their first hours on the road with their patients. The job of preceptor is too valuable to just be handed off to the next guy on the list with at least a year or two under their belts. In this segment recorded LIVE from the Zoll Podcast Studio at EMS Expo 2010 in Dallas, Texas, MedicCast host Jamie Davis, the Podmedic discusses this task in the EMS educational process with guests, Kelly Grayson, Natalie Quebodeaux, and Jeremiah Bush. All of these EMS professionals have valuable insights to bring to the discussion about what the best precepting experience should be like in the new EMS providers training.
