Certifications for new grads

This should be a FAQ.

 

High value:

Difficult Airway Course

Advanced Burn Life Support (ABLS)

Advanced Life Support in Obstetrics (ALSO)

Fundamentals of Critical Care Support(?) (FCCS)

 

Less valuable:

Advanced Medical Life Support (AMLS).  This ends up being great for paramedics to think about things like a PA, but I found much of the content redundant to PA school.
PHTLS--just take an ATLS course that will give you a provider card rather than a certificate of attenance.

 

All this assumes you want to practice emergency/trauma medicine, of course.
