All paramedics in Australia are required to have Bachelors Degrees and nurses upgrade to become paramedics. Why can't that work here in the United States? We have a special panel discussion on that coming up. If that's what you're looking for, you found it, right here on this week's episode of the MedicCast.

MedicCast Episode 506
Good day and welcome to this week's episode of the MedicCast. I'm your host, Jamie Davis the Podmedic and I'd like to welcome you to this week's show. In this episode, we have a special panel discussion recorded this year at EMS World Expo on the topic of upgrading the educational standards for paramedics in the United States. Joining me on the show are Chris Montera from the EMSGarage.com, Sam Bradley from the DisasterPodcast.com and Dr. Peter O'Meara from La Trobe University in Victoria, Australia. Check it out coming up from our Physio-Control podcast studio last October at EMS World Expo.
All of the segments this week were recorded thanks to the continuing support and sponsorship of the Physio-Control corporation and with the support of EMS World Expo. Thank them for supporting your EMS podcasting community.
