Eric Fusch is a professor of athletic training at Eastern Kentucky University. He also serves adjunct faculty for the Center For Wilderness Medicine and Outdoor Public Safety. He is an active EMS provider for the special operations unit for Cal County EMS in wilderness medicine, and I do PRN work on that ambulance.
04:37
There are different levels of EMS providers, and the state can define the protocols and the scope for those level of providers above. The only thing that they cannot do according to the national, the national scope of practice defined by the NHTSA, National Highway Transportation Authority is they can't lower the skills.
09:06
Every state is gonna have a board of EMS or a controlling board just like we have in athletic training. In Kentucky, you don't have to keep your national registry. You still have to do continuing ed and meet the state requirements.
13:12
"We need to work together. We need to be respectful of each other's lanes, but we need to understand each other’s lanes," he says. "In many states and something I've taught a lot of ATs to do, and in Kentucky, you can do an IV"
17:25
In Kentucky, EMTs can use supraglottic, and in many other states, they can't. Depending on the airway you put in, what level of provider do you have?
21:39
The one thing you definitely have to stay in your lane, and using that I think you gave that great analogy on using the roundabouts. I think the the when for your skill side is understand your skill, know your skill. And make sure you have that def get that well defined.
25:00
I think from the athletic training perspective, from that side of it is, and I think for other perspectives, just because you can doesn't mean you should. And that gets back into the whole training. You have to know that you know what you know. And if you don't know it and not there's a difference of being confident and being competent.
28:32
In Kentucky, the the new twenty, 24 state protocols for EMS, actually updated to if you have heat, hypothermia patient that you do need to stay and cool them and do rectal thermometry. Even the, national registry exams for EMS have changed to go to critical thinking and analysis.
32:52
The downside comes when somebody is using that medical judgment, and the the question always comes up from the naysayers is what if they choose the wrong plan? What if they choosing the wrong treatment? Right? Well, the answer to that in EMS and the side that we're on because of wilderness medicine, we're out there 4, 5 hours out, and we may not have communication. So if we're without communication, we've gotta do what we think is in the best interest, and sometimes that outcome may not be what you want.
36:56
Community paramedicine paramedics are doing is is the things you're describing. And in the wilderness, like, we carry in stuff. I could do, 3 lead, and as soon as the new device comes out, it'll have both, temperature probe and 12 lead.
