Is this going to be on the test?  Educators having been cringing at this question as long as tests have existed because of a perceived time-lapse between research-driven advances in best practice and incorporation into high stakes testing - but these days are numbered. In this episode of the EMS Educator podcast, we host EMS Education experts and members of the National Registry research team, Chris Gage (current NREMT research fellow), Dr. Ash Panchal (NREMT Research director) and Dr. Kim McKenna (paramedic educator and NREMT Board member) to discuss their publication of the Consensus Standard for Evidence Integration into EMS Education and High Stakes Testing which describes the strategy for incorporating research evidence into EMS education and the NREMT certification exam. We discuss why this work was necessary, the process by which the strategy was developed, and why the future is bright for evidence implementation in EMS education and clinical practice.   Additional resources for EMS educators:   The Prehospital Guidelines Consortium list of prehospital Evidence-Based guidelines and EMS Professionals Reading List   This podcast is sponsored by EMS Gives Life.  Would you consider becoming a living organ donor?

A more diverse EMS workforce provides more equitable care, so how can we help EMS look more like the population it serves?  We must examine our policies and their impact on who we are hiring and retaining. Hear from guests Katie O'Connor, EMS Educator and simulation expert in LA County and Washington D.C.'s GWU, Sahaj Khalsa, Santa Fe (NM) Community College's EMS Program Director and Prodigy's Medical Director Dr. Maia Dorsett. Our guests discuss how Social Determinants of Health can affect employee success and how our seemingly well-thought out requirements may actually harm our diversity efforts.   If you're a chief, recruiter, educator or EMS employer, this podcast is a must listen.  The people who write policies are gatekeepers to this profession, and we still have a ways to go to diversify the EMS workforce.

One way is to make the unconscious conscious.  We welcome guests Katie O'Connor, EMS Educator and simulation expert in LA County and Washington D.C.'s GWU, and Sahaj Khalsa, Santa Fe (NM) Community College's EMS Program Director.  Prodigy's Medical Director Dr. Maia Dorsett also weighs in.

Look at your scenarios and what they are reinforcing.  Your clinicians will respond and improve. Look for Part 2, Addressing Bias in Your Agency, to be released in July!
