<div id="_mcePaste">Don’t Let Tough Classes Keep a Great Medic Out of the Field</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Why be frustrated and struggle?</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Are you drowning in a sea of acids, bases, and D5W?</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Is learning how to handle intracranial pressure making your own brain swell? Are the ins and outs of acute respiratory distress syndrome stressing you out?</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">In short, are you flatlining in your EMT-B, EMT-I, or Paramedic classes?</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Even more importantly, are you well on your way to depriving the world of a great – and badly needed – EMS professional?</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">MedicCast Extra Gets You out of the Classroom and into the Field</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">As a longtime EMT-P and RN, Jamie Davis has heard far too many stories of would-be EMS professionals getting lost in the maze of emergency medical terminology and techniques they need to master before they can get into the field.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">It’s not that they’re not smart – most of them are. It’s not that they don’t work hard – many of them juggle work, family, and classes. It’s not that they didn’t want it enough – almost every one of them has dreamed of becoming an EMS professional for years.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">What’s keeping these intelligent, dedicated people out of the field and away from their dreams?</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">In his work and as the host of MedicCast, the Web’s most trusted and respected weekly EMS podcast, Jamie Davis learned that these students needed one of two things to succeed in their classes: either 36-hour days or a mentor who could give them the inside knowledge they needed to ace their classes – exactly when they needed it and without wasting a second of their very limited time.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Get into the field!</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">And since 36-hour days haven’t been invented yet and since mentors seem to be in short supply, Jamie created MedicCast Extra, an online, 24/7 mentor for anyone who’s struggling to keep up with their EMT-B, EMT-I, or Paramedic classes.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">MedicCast Extra gives you the tips, medication know-how, study aids, NREMT testing resources, and all the other expert assistance you need to get out of the classroom and into the field where you belong – all in easy-to-digest audio files, PDFs, and videos.</div>

<div id="_mcePaste">Whether you get up to speed on ACE inhibitors using the MedicCast Extra site or prepare for your NREMT BLS Skills test by listening to our 17-part series on your iPod, you’ll benefit from the “been there, done that” knowledge of veterans like Jamie Davis, Lisa Booze of Maryland Poison Control, and Rick Russotti of the Mitigation Journal podcast.</div>
