I haven't worked as a Paramedic since Maddie was 10 months old, and the whole time I have not been working I have kept up with my Paramedic license. I got a notice a while back from CA EMS telling me that I needed to renew my license because it was going to expire soon, blah, blah, blah. I put it with the rest of the stuff that goes in my "in box" and told myself I would get to it later... Fast forward a few months.... I am paying bills a few days ago and realized that I have about 2 1/2 weeks to take 48 hours of continuing education if I want to keep my licence current!... OOOPS! I have been frantically trying to get in all done, and guess what? I finished today. :) I am so happy that my new license will be coming soon and I am officially a Paramedic for another 2 years.. Hopefully next time I won't put if off until last minute.
