Spring is here! The Easter Bunny will be hopping by and leaving jelly beans and yummy treats – at least that is what I tell my dog so he will stop chasing the bunnies in the yard!
It is a great time of year to get out, do some training and enhance those EMS and leadership skills. For the latest EMS classes or online training visit the OEMS web site! There is also some upcoming training for leaders in the EMS community that will be posted soon – keep hitting refresh until the classes are posted. Be sure to check out the Keeping the Best classes as well!
Also featured on the OEMS Web site is the pre-conference brochure for the 2009 EMS Symposium. You must see what we are offering for classes on the pre-conference day and see who the banquet speaker is this year! Registration for Symposium will open on August 11 – so mark your calendar.
Spring also brings new things – like a new grant to help fund your laptop computer so you can transition to electronic patient care reporting. Information on how you can get 100% funding for your toughbook computer is on the OEMS Web page.
The OEMS Web site is a valuable resource for information and updates on things going on in the Virginia EMS community. We are doing some spring cleaning to the Web site and will have more information on new classes, resources and a new look! Keep checking the site at www.vdh.virginia.gov/oems!
Be safe out there!
