To be able to recertify as an EMT-B in Washington, D.C. an EMT is required to complete at least 24 hours of continuing education per year, in addition to a 24 hour refresher course. A Nationally Registered EMT-B is required to complete 48 elective hours, in addition to the 24 hour refresher. It is because of these requirements, and the desire to continually make better the services which we provide, that EMeRG offers Continuing Medical Education courses to its members. EMeRG, because of our close ties to the community, is pleased to announce that these training sessions are now open to those non-members who wish to further their own medical education.
EMeRG offers monthly continuing education courses with topics ranging from infectious diseases to mass-casualty incidents to blood-borne pathogens, and anything inbetween. Our courses are generally three hours long and are broken down into one hour of didactic lesson, one hour of psychomotor lesson, and one hour of case study.
EMeRG is currently working to open its continuing education classes to the public, and when that goal is met, both upcoming and past classes will be listed on this site. Check back soon to see if courses have been made available.
