Innovative Disaster Training with Paragon Medical Group

Dr. Joe Holley from Paragon Medical Education Group is featured in today’s episode. He talks about his recent trip to the NAEMSP (National Association of EMS Physicians) conference in southern California. During the conference they focused on building more understanding between prehospital and hospital medical professionals. What do people in the hospital need to know about how first responders do their jobs and manage disaster situations.

We also talk with Joe about the history of our sponsors, Paragon Medical Education Group. He covers their beginnings and some of the key changes in focus that have taken place over the last fifteen years. He also looks forward as training and education opportunities open up more after the pandemic subsides.

Meteorologist Dan DePodwin also joins the show to chat about recent weather events and the volcanic activity in the South Pacific near Tonga.

Paragon Brings “The Experience”

Paragon Medical Education Group specializes in bringing what they call “The Experience” to jurisdictions around the country. They bring together police, fire, EMS, and hospital teams to train together and learn what to expect from each diverse group in the response team so that each knows what to expect from the other and how to back the other groups up.
