Jon Alperin, one of our MFAS volunteers, shares his journey to becoming an NJ certified EMT.

from the Start

Here is Jon's journey, presented in time order:

T-30 & counting
A look back at my first year with this squad
1500 pages of EMT know-how
Class is in Session!
We pick things up, we put things down
The head bone is connected to the neck bone...
Questions? We've got a million of them...
Practice is vital, and vitals take practice
Getting ready for the 1st test
Taking a breather
Be still my beating heart
Gearing up for mid-term exams
A peak inside a PSAP
Urgency, not emergency
Paramedics - Our partners in success
Under pressure
Around the bend, the end is in sight
From beginning to end
A grim way to learn
The toughest lesson
One behind, one ahead
Tom Petty had it right...
Just gonna let this speak for itself
The end of the beginning
