Re: EMT-P to RN Bridge Question

St. Petersburg College offers both a Paramedic to RN Bridge program, and
a Paramedic to RT bridge.  Please see
www.spcollege.edu/hec
for more information if you are interested.  Enrollment in the Paramedic to RN bridge has always been pretty high.  Thanks, Nerina

She was concerned about the cost of the school implementing the necessary competency testing and investigating. She initially did not feel that there would be enough of a demand for such a course to justify these costs. So I am opening this up to the groups, looking for feedback... as I feel that there would be a huge demand for such a program were there one available. Is there? Would you apply and move here for such a program? Is there any others out there (besides Regents College)?
