I beleive you're going to need to retake the whole thing. Check the DSHS

website for further information. www.dshs.state.tx.us then go to EMS/Trauma

Systems.

After 10 yrs, many things have changed, I would have to agree with Wes, that you

will have to start from the beginning.

Unfortunately I have some EX medics who took advantage of of a loop hole

which allowed them to become inactive(after 8-10 years), attend a refresher

course then they regained their certification. I think you can still do it.

Anybody know of such a course in the (West) Houston area? I have a friend who

is interested in checking it out.

You can only become inactive if you're currently active. If you

maintain inactive status (renew, pay the fee every time), then you can

become active again (though it is more difficult than it was before this

year, things changed). But, if you have long expired, you have to start

all over again.

It couldn't hurt anything to check with DSHS and make

sure you have to start from scratch.

Since I had been inactive for 10 years, I thought I

would have to start all over and knew there was no way

I had time to do that. When I checked with DSHS,

since I took the time to become inactive and continue

the q 4 yr extensions, I was OK.

Rule 157.33 states

the department for inactive status at any time during or after the

certification period so long as the certification can be verified by the

department.

<NO>(1) The request for inactive status shall be accompanied by a

nonrefundable fee of $30 in addition to the regular nonrefundable application f

3 to and one to stay is the rule among " most " providers, however some companies

do influence these decisions by reviewing all " turned responses " the crews are

somewhat pressured to fly by inflences of this nature. It is sad, but a fact, if

the rotors dont turn, money is not earned.
