Preceptor In-service Training

Over the past eighteen months there have been substantial changes made to the preceptorship process for all ALS classes. As a result of these changes we are holding a number of preceptor in-service training classes to bring our preceptors up to speed on the new material. The first of these will be held at the Utica Training Center (2521 Sunset Avenue) on Monday, January 9 starting at 1900. Please email an RSVP to richarddbishop@roadrunner.com, if you are able to make the first training on 1/9.
