Lou just to let you know most Medical schools in the US only require 90 hours of

undergraduate education. Yet it is recommended to have BS or BA.

The day I have to go to school 4 years and then go 2 more for paramedic I think

I would just go on and become a Dr. and of course never ride on an ambulance and

get a hell of a lot more money that the ems systems will never pay.

schools begin right out of high school and are only 6 years in length

test--it is

the training.

So Doc how would you compare the levels of care (without dealing with the

insurance issues that are a BIG part of delivery of care in both the US and

UK).

Same patient, same levels of facility side by side trauma and medical one in

the US one in the UK how does the " level of care " compare?
