2 Spring 2015 Paramedic Psychomotor competency portfolio (ppcp) 2 The Paramedic Psychomotor Competency Portfolio (PPCP) project developed as a result of requiring graduation from a CAAHEP-accredited paramedic program or one that holds a current LOR from the Committee on Accreditation of Educational Programs for the Emergency Medical Services Professions (CoAEMSP) for courses that commenced on or after January 1, Recognizing the rigorous, consistent review of paramedic programs through the accreditation process, the NREMT began to investigate revision of our paramedic psychomotor examination. The NREMT focused on a more scenario-based examination that could also incorporate essential attributes of team leadership and team membership, thus better reflecting actual out-ofhospital care as opposed to continuing to test 12 isolated skills. The NREMT developed a portfolio of vital skills that each paramedic student must master in order to qualify for the NREMT Paramedic Certification examination. Each student s portfolio is tracked by the program throughout the formative and summative phases of education in the classroom, laboratory, clinical, and field internship settings. The completed portfolio becomes a part of the student s permanent educational file and is a prerequisite to seeking NREMT Paramedic Certification. The NREMT anticipates incorporating the scenario-based examination in several phases,with Phase 1 beginning on August 1, In this first phase, a total of six (6) skills will be tested, five (5) of which are currently evaluated in the National Registry Paramedic Psychomotor examination. One scenario will also be tested and it could reflect either a pediatric, geriatric, or adult patient. A trained paramedic partner will be supplied as part of the examination team and will serve as the candidate s professional partner. Each candidate will be evaluated in his/her ability to manage a call, lead the team, direct all personnel and resources on scene, effectively communicate, and maintain professionalism throughout the call. Authorization to Test Expiration Date Effective date: January 1, 2015 Beginning January 1, 2015, Authorizations to Test (ATT) for National EMS Certification will be valid for up to 90 days from the date of issuance, provided all other requirements for National EMS Certification are met. Candidates who do not complete their cognitive examination prior to the expiration date will be required to complete a new application, including payment of the application fee. No refunds will be issued for expired Authorizations to Test. Announced: December 11, 2013
3 The National Continued Competency Program: The New Recertification Model 3 3 Since the 1980s, national EMS recertification has consisted of 72 clock hours of continuing education for each nationally certified EMS provider level. Recently, the EMS community across the nation has been changing entry requirements with the adoption of the new National EMS Scope of Practice and implementation of the EMS Education Guidelines. Because entry level requirements have changed, it was necessary to evaluate continued competency requirements. In 2012, the NREMT introduced a new recertification model, the National Continued Competency Program (NCCP). Constructed using methodology similar to that of the American Board of Medical Specialty requirements, the new NCCP model streamlines the recertification process into three strategic categories of continuing education: National, Local, and Individual. The NCCP offers numerous improvements that will impact EMS for the better for years to come. These changes allow a platform for evidenced-based medicine to reach EMS professionals all over the country, give state and local agencies the freedom to dictate a portion of the recertification requirements and provide a foundation for the EMS professional to embrace life-long learning through self-assessment. The national component of the NCCP will constitute 50% of the new recertification requirements at each level and will replace the traditional DOT refresher. Topics will be updated and will reflect current trends in evidence-based medicine, scope of practice changes and position papers from numerous associations involved with EMS research. It will also focus on those patient presentations that have a low frequency but high criticality. The national component will be developed by a panel of experts assigned by the NREMT Board of Directors and will be updated every five years. After content has been selected, educational materials will be developed and disseminated to training officers, medical directors and program directors free of charge. The local component of the NCCP will constitute 25% of the new recertification requirements at each level. The requirement for these hours will be decided by local entities, including the state, region or agency. These topics can include state or local protocol changes, tasks that require remediation based on QA/QI and topics chosen from run reviews. The local component allows national recertification requirements to be adapted to the needs of the state and local agencies. Methods to provide current continuing education such as monthly training, conferences, and in-service training will stay the same. Finally, the individual component of the NCCP will constitute the last 25% of the new recertification requirements at each level. Within this component, an individual is free to take any EMS-related education. New to this recertification model will be a selfassessment tool. This self-assessment tool will provide feedback and recommendations for individual learning needs for the next recertification period. As a result of the new NCCP recertification model, the total continuing education hours needed to recertify a national EMS certification have been reduced for EMTs, AEMTs and Paramedics (Table 1). As this model is implemented throughout the country, more information regarding the transition to the new recertification model will be provided. Table 1.

4 Spring NREMT Signs Memorandum of Understanding to Renew Contract with Pearson VUE, Computer Based Testing Provider In 2014, the Board of Directors of the NREMT approved a contract renewal with Pearson VUE, NREMT s computer based testing provider. The contract will extend the partnership between the NREMT and Pearson VUE through Since 2006, the NREMT committed to freezing its examination fees charged to candidates despite a continued rise in operating costs for the past ten years. In order to ensure future solvency of the Organization, the Board of Directors approved a fee increase effective January 1, This will be the fourth time that the NREMT has adjusted the cost of its examination since it was founded in In addition, the fee adjustment preserves the NREMT s continued commitment to administering one of the lowest exam fees of all high stakes health career certifications. Level 2017 EMR $75 EMT $80 AEMT $115 Intermediate/99 $125 Paramedic $125 As with all of its endeavors, the NREMT s primary interest is the safety of the American public. By continuing to utilize computer based testing the NREMT can verify, with increased precision, that every candidate who passes the NREMT examination possesses the necessary skills and knowledge to competently provide entry-level, out-ofhospital emergency medical care. The NREMT is pleased to continue partnering with Pearson VUE in delivering examinations that provide a fair and precise evaluation of a candidate s competency, rapid turnaround of test results, choices on when and where to take the examination, easy registration and fortified exam security. NREMT PILOT STUDY ANNOUNCEMENT TO AEMT: The NREMT is investigating the feasibility of providing candidates with an opportunity to provide feedback on any item delivered during the cognitive examination. We are currently conducting a pilot study while NRAEMT candidates complete their cognitive examination. You may be able to provide feedback on any item as you complete your cognitive examination but your participation is entirely voluntary. The NREMT does not require or mandate participation in this project and there are no penalties associated with not participating. If you have specific questions concerning this pilot study, please contact Gabe Romero, Director of Examinations, at (614) Ext. 130 or Rob Wagoner, Senior Director, Quality and Standards, at (614) Ext If you choose to submit a comment on any item, simply click the "Comment" button located in the upper left-hand corner of that item screen (or press and hold the Alt-M keys). After you type your comment, click the "Save" or "Cancel" button located in the bottom right-hand corner of the pop-up "Comment" box and move on to the next item. Your comments will be reviewed by the NREMT so please provide constructive feedback in a professional manner. Please be aware that the clock will continue to run as you type your comments. We urge you to pay attention to the "Time Remaining" clock in the upper right-hand corner of the screen in order to use your time wisely. These instructions will also be repeated before your examination is launched at the Pearson VUE test center. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
5 NREMT Criminal Conviction Policy Background The National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) has adopted a Criminal Conviction Policy to safeguard the public from individuals who, in practice as an EMS professional, might pose a danger to the public. 5 5 EMS professionals, under the authority of their state licensure, have unsupervised, intimate, physical and emotional contact with patients at a time of maximum physical and emotional vulnerability, as well as unsupervised access to a patient s personal property. These patients may be unable to defend or protect themselves, voice objections to particular actions, or provide accurate accounts of events at a later time. EMS professionals, therefore, are placed in a position of the highest public trust. The public in need of out-of-hospital medical services relies on state licensure and national certification to assure that those EMS professionals who respond to their calls for aid qualify for this extraordinary trust. For these reasons, the NREMT has adopted the following Criminal Conviction Policy to ensure that individuals, who have been convicted of certain crimes, are identified and appropriately evaluated as to whether they would pose a risk to public safety as an EMS provider. Please visit the following link on NREMT s website to view the entire Criminal Conviction Policy:
