What is belonging? Why is this critical for learning? In this episode, hosts Rob Lawrence and Dr. Maia Dorsett welcome expert guests, Dan Batsie, Deputy Commissioner of Public Safety for the State of Vermont; Dr. Heather Davis, Director of Assessment, UCLA School of Medicine, also taskforce chair of the IDEA Taskforce; and Ginger Locke, Prodigy’s newest team member (also Associate Professor of EMS Professions at Austin Community College).
Collectively they discuss the essential role that belonging plays in education, professional development, and organizational culture. Tune in to explore how to create inclusive environments that encourage connection, trust, and teamwork.
We also took a moment to honor and congratulate Prodigy’s Medical Director, Dr. Dorsett on being recognized as the NAEMT EMS Medical Director of the Year 2024. We couldn’t be more proud of Maia on this achievement.

Creating and managing realistic patient simulations is not an easy task. EMS educators have a lot on their plate -- from designing the scenario to training facilitators to choosing the equipment to avoiding training scars. What are best practices? We asked simulation gurus Brittany Prater, Director of Alabama EMS Region One and Robby May, ALS Education Specialist at Howard County Department of Fire and Rescue. Listen as Rob, Maia and Hilary ask about the tricks of the trade and learn how to make your simulations prepare students for the real world.

On July 1, 2024, the NREMT will transition from the current psychomotor examinations to the new AEMT Certification Examination and new Paramedic Certification Examination. According to the NREMT, this will "bring Paramedic and AEMT examinations in line with most other health-based professions, which have made similar updates in recent years, and matches the best research and science that’s currently available."

How, where, when and why should we be training our EMS clinicians to take care of tiny humans? Look no further for the answers, as we have subject matter expert Stephanie Ashford, Division Chief of Clinical Practice at the Saint Charles County (MO) Ambulance District. Stephanie has proven advice on how to successfully integrate pediatric readiness and skills training for your agency. Tiny humans are sometimes terrifying (smaller parts, requires math, etc.), and Stephanie's experience teaches us how to implement Rapid Cycle Deliberate Practice as well as other mantras such as "Pause, Prescribe, Replay" so that we are basing our training on proven research.

How involved in education is the medical director for your paramedic program? If you answered, "Not very much," you are not alone. Join us as we interview research authors Michael Kaduce and Jonathan Powell, who recently published a paper in Prehospital Emergency Care titled: Medical Directors, Facilities, and Finances: Resource Deficiencies in Accredited Paramedic Programs. Their objective was to evaluate US paramedic program resources and identify common deficiencies that may affect program completion. A lack of medical director engagement in educational activities, inadequate facility resources, and a lack of available financial resources affected the educational environment. They surveyed those who are directly affected: paramedic students.

Could your next work partner be… Australian? If some folks in California have their way, the answer is yes. Working to solve the ongoing staffing shortage, a group of innovative EMS leaders in California and Australia are thinking differently: bringing well-trained EMS clinicians from Australia to join the U.S. ranks. How do they do it? Hosts Rob Lawrence and Hilary Gates interview the impressive cast of characters. We discuss the logistics, the education, the paperwork, and of course, the accents.

You've heard the term "bystander," but probably not "upstander." What is it? Hosts Rob Lawrence, Maia Dorsett and Hilary Gates are joined by University of Pittsburgh's Rickquel Tripp, MD, MPH, CDR, USNR: Vice Chair of Diversity, Inclusion & Health Equity, Department of Emergency Medicine; Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine; EMS Medical Director, Penn Hills, SouthEast Regional, Lower Valley and Foxwall; Emergency Department Attending Physician. Dr. Tripp teaches us about implicit bias and how an upstander will not stand quietly by but will instead engage in support of a person or group who may be being bullied or attacked. How should we teach this in our EMS systems? How do we create a safe space and a culture that celebrates this behavior? Bias is often motivated by fear, anxiety or the unknown.

Is this going to be on the test? Educators having been cringing at this question as long as tests have existed because of a perceived time-lapse between research-driven advances in best practice and incorporation into high stakes testing - but these days are numbered. In this episode of the EMS Educator podcast, we host EMS Education experts and members of the National Registry research team, Chris Gage (current NREMT research fellow), Dr. Ash Panchal (NREMT Research director) and Dr. Kim McKenna (paramedic educator and NREMT Board member) to discuss their publication of the Consensus Standard for Evidence Integration into EMS Education and High Stakes Testing which describes the strategy for incorporating research evidence into EMS education and the NREMT certification exam. We discuss why this work was necessary, the process by which the strategy was developed, and why the future is bright for evidence implementation in EMS education and clinical practice.
