Enhancing EMS Practice Through Data and Performance Improvement

The EMS Performance Improvement Center (EMSPIC) in collaboration with the North Carolina RACE project are pleased to offer Tim Phalen's new Online 12 Lead ECG Interpretation Course to all EMT-Paramedics in North Carolina, South Carolina, and West Virginia.

It is the goal of the EMSPIC and RACE to have all active EMT-Paramedics complete this course within the next 2 years.

Please note that the course is only available to EMS Agencies in North Carolina, South Carolina and West Virginia who have enrolled in CIS for data submission. If your agency has not yet enrolled, please contact the EMSPIC (866-773-6477) for further instructions.

The list of paramedic students and credentialed paramedics is refreshed on the first and the fifteenth of each month. If a new paramedic student is added to a paramedic course or a new paramedic is credentialed during the time between refreshes, they will be able to access the course after the next refresh.
