What about you? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk That's freaking awesome! I was thinking about doing that, but a few other opportunities came up. I worked as an Advance EMT and as a Center Medical Specialists at a plasma center. Our doctor came in about once a week but otherwise I ran most of the medical side there. I would have loved to be a Critical Care Tech. I originally had a job offering at CHI Bergan Mercy a few months ago when I moved to Omaha, but they didn't really care that I was an A-EMT and they were only going to have me practice as a basic. I have always wondered, is there a difference between and emergency room tech vs a critical care tech? Also, Where were/are you a Critical Care tech at?

Also, Where were/are you a Critical Care tech at?They didn’t even care that I had an EMT license. I worked alongside student nurses. Apparently critical care tech has more freedom than ER tech. They actually trained me in phlebotomy as well, so I did a lot of the lab draws there. I loved it. I was at CHI Lakeside! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I would have to do it over my spring break or on a weekend as I have class Monday-Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am totally okay with making it work with people down in Lincoln. I talked to the instructor and he is available March 7th at 8 AM. He also said not to worry about renewals vs initial. He will make a hybrid class to meet everyone's needs. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
