RE: PHRN

["James Dinsch" <jdinsch@fireemstech.com>]

In Illinois, PHRN is an additional licensure held by RN's that allows
them, after a brief training program including intubation, to function
as paramedics in the field.  When an RN is working as a PHRN, however,
he/she is not allowed to work as an RN.  They function under one license
or the other.

Can anyone provide me with URL to find out more about this? (Training
sites, how differs from 'normal' RN etc)? How well accepted by EMS?
Flight programs?, Hospitals?
