But, you keep comparing the arizona situation, where the level of training
and testing was either at, or below, NR standards.
TN, being HIGHER than national standards, is clearly a different situation.
Maybe all the states that use NR standards should drop NR, and MOVE UP to
TN standards!
Heck, to follow your court case, those EMT/EMT-P's would have been guilty
if the couple had been from TN!
