http://www.emcc.edu/professional-development/workforce-development/customized-trainings/community-paramedic/
Class Description: Are you a paramedic with at least two (2) years of experience who would like to expand and enhance your career opportunities? Do you feel limited by the job opportunities available to you as a paramedic working in your area?

If so, consider enrolling in the Community Paramedic certificate program at Eastern Maine Community College, offered in partnership with WGH Group LLC and United Ambulance Service. Our Community Paramedic certification training class consists of 72 hours of classroom lecture and 72 hours of Navigate 2 Advantage Access for Community Health Paramedicine (online), and 196 clinical hours.

The Community Paramedic class is intense and requires external research and assessment in a county or large city where you will be potentially providing services as a Community Paramedic. During the clinical portion of the class you will have the opportunity to conduct advanced assessments, practice interview techniques, make patient care recommendations, use equipment, and perform suturing with preceptor approval.

Classes start Tuesday, March 20th, 2018.
General Comments: What is a Community Paramedic?
A Community Paramedic in Maine is a Maine EMS licensed paramedic who has graduated from a nationally recognized college based community paramedicine program, or possesses a nationally recognized equivalent set of training and experience. These providers may address all health care issues deemed appropriate by their primary care and EMS medical directors. Specific patient interaction will be on an episodic basis as requested by a physician.

The purpose of Community Paramedicine evolved from a need to address unmet health needs in rural and other underserved communities. It also sought to bring advanced life support to communities far from hospitals so that patients requiring critical care would be likelier to receive it. Placing a paramedic in such a community and giving them a primary care role that employed their medical skills between emergency calls might meet both needs more affordably. More recently, urban and suburban health systems have learned to employ community paramedicine services to their advantage as an integral member of community health teams in the rapidly changing health care environment.

Community Paramedic roles can include: health outreach; community health assessment and planning; wellness; health screening assessments; health teaching; providing immunizations; disease management, including a thorough understanding of monitoring diabetes, congestive heart failure and other high cost diseases and the methods and medications used to treat them; recognition of mental health issues and referral into the existing mental health care system; wound care; safety programs; and, generally functioning as physician extenders in community health teams.

Community Paramedic Program (National Standard Curriculum)
Community Paramedics will be prepared in the process of providing health services where access to physicians, clinics, or hospitals is difficult or where Community Paramedicine provides an advantageous patient care solution in the evolving health care system.

Community Paramedics work within community health teams and are trained to monitor and provide certain treatments to patients with chronic diseases and perform minor medical procedures in the patient’s home and other out of hospital settings.

In Maine, Community Paramedicine practice is limited to those areas served by an ambulance service with a Maine EMS approved Community Paramedicine program.

Comments: Association of Asthma Educators (AAE)

AAE has developed this program to prepare entry-level community health workers (CHW) to effectively provide basic asthma management education. The program is available to community and healthcare organizations with an interest in enabling staff and volunteers to improve the care and understanding of the disease for patients and families living with asthma.

Dates: Wednesday, May 16th and May 23rd
Time: 9 am to 2 pm

Attendance is require both days to complete program.
Class Description: What the Program provides:
Ensures that community health workers receive a consistent high-quality curriculum developed by Certified Asthma Educators
Provides an effective, nationally available low-cost program
Facilitates community health workers' communication with clinical mentors for professional development

Program Overview:
The AAE is dedicated to supporting the asthma educational needs of Community Health Workers by providing a comprehensive training program based on the national asthma guidelines. As a result, the Asthma Education for the Community Health Worker program was carefully designed and reviewed by over 35 asthma educators around the nation to ensure participants receive a high-quality curriculum. It includes five separate teaching modules and concludes with a comprehensive evaluation.

The Asthma Education for the Community Health Worker program covers basic information about asthma, but is not a certification program for community health workers. Participants who successfully complete the program and earn a satisfactory score on the comprehensive exam will earn an AAE Certificate of Completion. To earn a certificate of completion, the AAE requires that the participant show a higher than average understanding of the information presented in the program. Our goal is for the medical community to hold this certificate of completion earned by CHWs in high esteem to further build their confidence in having community health workers included in the asthma care team.

Each training module is between 90 and 120 minutes in length and contains instructional content and interactive activities to reinforce the learning objectives. The AAE requires the program to be taught by a certified asthma educator with the National Asthma Educator Certification Board’s AE-C credential. In addition, the AAE encourages adding a CHW with asthma experience as a co-trainer, when available, to maximize participant understanding through peer mentoring. A video has also been included in the design to present each module’s instructional content by an experienced CHW.

http://www.emcc.edu/professional-development/workforce-development/customized-trainings/community-paramedic/
Class Description: Are you a paramedic with at least two (2) years of experience who would like to expand and enhance your career opportunities? Do you feel limited by the job opportunities available to you as a paramedic working in your area?

If so, consider enrolling in the Community Paramedic certificate program at Eastern Maine Community College, offered in partnership with WGH Group LLC and United Ambulance Service. Our Community Paramedic certification training class consists of 72 hours of classroom lecture and 72 hours of Navigate 2 Advantage Access for Community Health Paramedicine (online), and 196 clinical hours.

The Community Paramedic class is intense and requires external research and assessment in a county or large city where you will be potentially providing services as a Community Paramedic. During the clinical portion of the class you will have the opportunity to conduct advanced assessments, practice interview techniques, make patient care recommendations, use equipment, and perform suturing with preceptor approval.

Classes start Tuesday, August 7th, 2018.
General Comments: What is a Community Paramedic?
A Community Paramedic in Maine is a Maine EMS licensed paramedic who has graduated from a nationally recognized college based community paramedicine program, or possesses a nationally recognized equivalent set of training and experience. These providers may address all health care issues deemed appropriate by their primary care and EMS medical directors. Specific patient interaction will be on an episodic basis as requested by a physician.

The purpose of Community Paramedicine evolved from a need to address unmet health needs in rural and other underserved communities. It also sought to bring advanced life support to communities far from hospitals so that patients requiring critical care would be likelier to receive it. Placing a paramedic in such a community and giving them a primary care role that employed their medical skills between emergency calls might meet both needs more affordably. More recently, urban and suburban health systems have learned to employ community paramedicine services to their advantage as an integral member of community health teams in the rapidly changing health care environment.

Community Paramedic roles can include: health outreach; community health assessment and planning; wellness; health screening assessments; health teaching; providing immunizations; disease management, including a thorough understanding of monitoring diabetes, congestive heart failure and other high cost diseases and the methods and medications used to treat them; recognition of mental health issues and referral into the existing mental health care system; wound care; safety programs; and, generally functioning as physician extenders in community health teams.

Community Paramedic Program (National Standard Curriculum)
Community Paramedics will be prepared in the process of providing health services where access to physicians, clinics, or hospitals is difficult or where Community Paramedicine provides an advantageous patient care solution in the evolving health care system.

Community Paramedics work within community health teams and are trained to monitor and provide certain treatments to patients with chronic diseases and perform minor medical procedures in the patient’s home and other out of hospital settings.

In Maine, Community Paramedicine practice is limited to those areas served by an ambulance service with a Maine EMS approved Community Paramedicine program.

E-mail Address: education@unitedambulance.net
Comments: Association of Asthma Educators (AAE)

AAE has developed this program to prepare entry-level community health workers (CHW) to effectively provide basic asthma management education. The program is available to community and healthcare organizations with an interest in enabling staff and volunteers to improve the care and understanding of the disease for patients and families living with asthma.

Dates: Wednesday, April 17th and April 24th
Time: 10 am to 3 pm

Attendance is require both days to complete program
Class Description: What the Program provides:
Ensures that community health workers receive a consistent high-quality curriculum developed by Certified Asthma Educators
Provides an effective, nationally available low-cost program
Facilitates community health workers' communication with clinical mentors for professional development

Program Overview:
The AAE is dedicated to supporting the asthma educational needs of Community Health Workers by providing a comprehensive training program based on the national asthma guidelines. As a result, the Asthma Education for the Community Health Worker program was carefully designed and reviewed by over 35 asthma educators around the nation to ensure participants receive a high-quality curriculum. It includes five separate teaching modules and concludes with a comprehensive evaluation.

The Asthma Education for the Community Health Worker program covers basic information about asthma, but is not a certification program for community health workers. Participants who successfully complete the program and earn a satisfactory score on the comprehensive exam will earn an AAE Certificate of Completion. To earn a certificate of completion, the AAE requires that the participant show a higher than average understanding of the information presented in the program. Our goal is for the medical community to hold this certificate of completion earned by CHWs in high esteem to further build their confidence in having community health workers included in the asthma care team.

Each training module is between 90 and 120 minutes in length and contains instructional content and interactive activities to reinforce the learning objectives. The AAE requires the program to be taught by a certified asthma educator with the National Asthma Educator Certification Board’s AE-C credential. In addition, the AAE encourages adding a CHW with asthma experience as a co-trainer, when available, to maximize participant understanding through peer mentoring. A video has also been included in the design to present each module’s instructional content by an experienced CHW.

E-mail Address: daphne.russell@unitedambulance.net
Comments: Association of Asthma Educators (AAE)

AAE has developed this program to prepare entry-level community health workers (CHW) to effectively provide basic asthma management education. The program is available to community and healthcare organizations with an interest in enabling staff and volunteers to improve the care and understanding of the disease for patients and families living with asthma.

Dates: Wednesday, June 19 & 26, 2019
Time: 10 am to 3 pm

Must attend both days to complete program
Class Description: What the Program provides:
Ensures that community health workers receive a consistent high-quality curriculum developed by Certified Asthma Educators
Provides an effective, nationally available low-cost program
Facilitates community health workers' communication with clinical mentors for professional development

Program Overview:
The AAE is dedicated to supporting the asthma educational needs of Community Health Workers by providing a comprehensive training program based on the national asthma guidelines. As a result, the Asthma Education for the Community Health Worker program was carefully designed and reviewed by over 35 asthma educators around the nation to ensure participants receive a high-quality curriculum. It includes five separate teaching modules and concludes with a comprehensive evaluation.

The Asthma Education for the Community Health Worker program covers basic information about asthma, but is not a certification program for community health workers. Participants who successfully complete the program and earn a satisfactory score on the comprehensive exam will earn an AAE Certificate of Completion. To earn a certificate of completion, the AAE requires that the participant show a higher than average understanding of the information presented in the program. Our goal is for the medical community to hold this certificate of completion earned by CHWs in high esteem to further build their confidence in having community health workers included in the asthma care team.

Each training module is between 90 and 120 minutes in length and contains instructional content and interactive activities to reinforce the learning objectives. The AAE requires the program to be taught by a certified asthma educator with the National Asthma Educator Certification Board’s AE-C credential. In addition, the AAE encourages adding a CHW with asthma experience as a co-trainer, when available, to maximize participant understanding through peer mentoring. A video has also been included in the design to present each module’s instructional content by an experienced CHW.
