Heavy Lies The Helmet - Critical Care Transport

The medical industry puts great emphasis on formal education via university and other training programs. Due to financial incentive, these institutions often discourage independent learning despite it usually having a greater impact on patient care quality. For example, paramedics are often non-degree holders, yet they effectively practice medicine on a daily basis as a result of learning via unconventional methods (e.g., podcasts). How much actual value is in formal education? Do we need a practitioner track for prehospital providers on the university level? And regardless of degree, how can we teach with the goal of long-term retention of information as opposed to simply passing an exam? Tune in to this podcast where we are joined by a pioneer in critical care transport education, Will Wingfield, to discuss.
