Does EMS Need All These Certification Levels?

EMS seems to be always trying to find an identity. New guidelines on certification levels are out and some things have been removed, added etc. Wouldn't it be easier and make more sense to just do away with all these levels and make one primary level to build upon. One that actually helps patients and is a serious part of the health care process? Want to know what Jim and Josh think? Come join in and find out. We would love to know what you think as well.
