Guest guest Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 Does anyone know which organization is more recognized for certs outside of the US? For example, is a Red Cross cert more recognized for a medic(the Red Cross is everywhere) as opposed to the AHA cert for CPR (BLS). I'm in south Central America and the only office I can find for a recert is the Red Cross. Thanks in advance. dave __________________________________ - PC Magazine Editors' Choice 2005 http://mail.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 i lou welcome to the world of medics AN ENG1 is a norwegian physical nearly the same as the UK required physicals. A lot of Norwegian ships/companies, and some UK companies will require one. Good luck with your new career. later gator dennis From: mediclou82 <mediclou82@...> Subject: Certs Date: Friday, July 29, 2011, 7:52 AM Â Hi Guys and Girls.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Ricky Never mind your last comment. The ENG1 (as stated is a Norwegian physical). It is nearly the same as the UK physical.  Some UK companies (or actually their clients) will require an ENG1 working on some ships in the UK waters. So therefore, a medic might have to have the two physical for some jobs. Cheers Dennis >From: mediclou82 <mediclou82@...> Subject: Certs Date: Friday, July 29, 2011, 7:52 AM Hi Guys and Girls.
