Medic Materials Podcast
Summary: An EMS Podcast Unlike All Others! Hosted by Mike Turek (AEMT-P, CIC), Emily Yates (RN, EMT), Gerard Cuomo (AEMT-P),Phil Saunders (AEMT-P) & Butch Smith (AEMT-P). Each month our goal is to offer educational opportunities to EMT’s & Paramedics in a no frills, no holds barred format fusing education with entertainment. You'll get in the heads of four current EMS providers in the most relaxed fashion we can. EMS is a stressful business and many discussions happen between providers in the Ambulance or in the station. This podcast reflects those internal conversations. We review actual EMS calls as well as have open discussions on some of the most interesting topics in the EMS world.
