I have a healthy respect for anyone who, unlike me, does something useful with their lives.

Don't you, like me, have a healthy respect for the emergency medical professionals who respond to accidents and save lives? These are men and women who have to be ready, on a moment's notice, to respond to pretty much any situation and any injury-- even some gross ones-- that the human body can conceive of and inflict on itself or others.

If are one of those people getting all that respect, you've earned not just the respect but the ability to make your ongoing training a little easeir and more accessible through the National Paramedic Institute. The Institute is offering an emergency first responder training course that is on the cutting edge of continuing education.

Their online training center for First Responders, EMTs, and Paramedics has streaming video. It's got all the mandatory training you're required to have (like in Bloodborn pathogens and AIDS Training.) They can even give you online ACLS and CPR recertificatoin.

Go there right now -- use that link -- for a free video demo and see how worth it this is. While you're there, check out "Medic Monthly," the continuing education series which is CECBEMS approved and meets national registry requirements; with "Medic Monthly" you get case-based EMS training with pretests, videos, explanations and reviews, and a quiz.

It's a great company and a great program -- for great people who do great things.
