Further, according toAHA requirements, there will be no transition period. This means the updated exams will be prepared and distributed for implementation on July 1.“Candidates who take an examination prior to July 1  \nwill be tested over the current AHA guidelines” Rob Wagoner, NREMT associate director explained.“However, if they fail, they will be required to take retests over the new guidelines if they retest on or after July 1.”  \nOf course, candidates testing for their initial attempt on or after July 1 must be prepared to perform according to the new guidelines.  \n“The revised AHA guidelines have introduced new medications and caused the EMS profession and the medical community to rethink some previously accepted long-time practices.”Wagoner added.  \nNREMT staffer and first nationally registered EMT recognized for lifetime achievement in EMS  \nD. Terry Shorr, NREMT examination coordinator, was recognized for his long career in EMS and pioneering contributions to the field at the 25th anniversary conference of the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians, where he received the Rocco V. Morando Award for Lifetime Achievement in EMS.  \nA contemporary of Morando’s, the founder of the National Registry for whom the award was named, Shorr became the very first EMT to obtain national registration credentials from the NREMT on the first day a Registry examination was given in October of 1971. Although some 1100 candidates took the examination that day at 50 different locations, Shorr was the first to receive his registration credentials. However, his career in EMS began long before that day.  \nHe first became involved in EMS working in his family’s funeral and ambulance service in his West Virginia home town of Elkins. From 1966 to 1977 he was president and general manager of United Ambu-  \nlance Services in Ashland, Kentucky. Through his involvement in the field, Shorr became aware of and followed the recommendations of the American College of Surgeons, which had developed early guidelines for the essential skills and equipment they recommended for a professional ambulance service. These guidelines were among the precursors of what became the NREMT.  \nAfter serving as an EMS instructor, on advisory committees and as an officer of the Kentucky Ambulance Institute, Shorr went to work in the state EMS office in West Virginia. During his tenure as training director from 1977 to 1992, he coordinated a program to train coal miners as EMTs and developed an initiative to establish an in-squad training officers program. During the same period, he continued to work with the growing NREMT, administering Registry examinations.  \nShorr came to work for the Registry full time in 1994. In his current position, he coordinates NREMT examinations at all levels.  \n“The NREMT is proud of the opportunity to have Terry on our staff,” Bill Brown, NREMT executive director, said.“His 52 years of involvement in EMS and his status as the first ever nationally registered EMT certainly represents an outstanding achievement worthy of this prestigious award.”  \nNREMT  \nNREMT Boa w comes new members  \nThree new membe","cbCaidP7o7PDieuX","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidP7o7PDieuX","pdf",201560,"English","# NREMT exams to meet revised American Heart Association guidelines\n# NREMT staffer and first nationally registered EMT recognized for lifetime achievement in EMS\n# NREMT Board comes new members\n## New board members\n# Emblem order form","[{\"question\":\"When will the updated NREMT examinations aligned with revised AHA guidelines take effect?\",\"answer\":\"The updated examinations are prepared and distributed for implementation on July 1.\"},{\"question\":\"Do candidates tested before July 1 follow the current or revised AHA guidelines?\",\"answer\":\"Candidates who take an examination before July 1 are tested over the current AHA guidelines, and if they fail they must retest using the new guidelines if they retest on or after July 1.\"},{\"question\":\"Who were the three newly named members of the NREMT Board of Directors?\",\"answer\":\"The issue names Fred Nirdé, John Sinclair, and Dr. Peter Glaeser as the new board members.\"}]","Spring 2001 - NREMT Newsletter | PDF",1790202470,15]
