RECERTIFICATION PROGRAMS

EMT

NATIONAL CONTINUED COMPETENCY PROGRAM (NCCP)

The national continued competency requirements (NCCR) are determined by the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) Board of Directors based upon widespread input from EMS researchers, EMS physicians, and EMS provider stakeholders. This course comprises 50% of the overall requirements necessary to recertify. Topics covered in the NCCP include airway, respiratory, ventilation, cardiology, trauma, medical, and operations.

This 20-hour course is designed to meet or exceed national and Massachusetts requirements for EMT basics. This course replaces the previous Massachusetts Basic Refresher.

PARAMEDIC

NATIONAL CONTINUED COMPETENCY PROGRAM (NCCP)

The national continued competency requirements (NCCR) are determined by the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) Board of Directors based upon widespread input from EMS researchers, EMS physicians, and EMS provider stakeholders. The NCCR comprises 50% of the overall requirements necessary to recertify. 

Topics in the NCCR are chosen among the following: evidence-based medicine, any changes in the national EMS scope of practice model, science-related position papers that affect EMS patient care, topics that cover patient care tasks that have low frequency yet high criticality, and articles which improve knowledge to deliver patient care. 

The NREMT will provide the educational materials for this component to the EMS community as part of their mission to protect the public. This replaces the 48-hour refresher of previous years.
