🚑🎙️ In this week’s podcast, Aaron from Pragmatic Paramedics and I focus on having EMS professionals with degrees in the profession versus obtaining a certification. 

We also break down the argument that EMS providers benefit from having a degree and how higher education and a degree can help providers outside of EMS. 

Today, I get to dive deep into stories with Kelly Grayson, author of A Paramedic's Story: Life, Death, and Everything in Between and Perspectives Volume 1 and 2.

Kelly not only shares his journey to discover his love and talent for writing but also some of his darkest moments as a medic and in his personal life and how he has overcome those situations.
