Hello everyone!
I'm a junior right now, and next year I have the opportunity to graduate high school as a CNA and EMT-B. I can't seem to find anyone who has such certification, and I was wondering if anyone has happened upon any sort of nurse-EMT hybrid (I guess that's what you could call them), whether CNA or RN or paramedic or whatever combination. Do you see any benefits or problems with doing this, or have any feedback at all?
If not, I'd love to hear any feedback, related to this CNA/EMT-B thing or not.
Advice, warnings, and opinions are all much appreciated Tell me what I should know about the field.
FYI: My ultimate goal is to get my Ph.D in nursing, but I want to work entirely in trauma and prehospital. I may get my paramedic eventually too.
