This year’s first post of the year focuses on the best internet resources for emergency medical technicians (EMTs) and paramedics.  I know that I will miss a few but these are the web resources I use most when checking in about other EMS providers around the country and around the world.  Check these sites out when you are looking for information, tips and tricks of the trade, and a look at the world of EMS from another EMTs point of view.
