Good day and welcome to this week’s episode of the MedicCast. I’m your host, Jamie Davis, the Podmedic and I’d like to welcome you to this week’s show.

Check all that out coming right up!
We’re back with more ProMed Network podcast studio product innovator picks from EMS World Expo. This time around, Chris Cebollero has food brought in from the gang at Meal Kit Supply. These aren’t your father’s MRE’s (Meals Ready to Eat), folks. Check out the video because these things are delicious.
MREs are 3 course, shelf-stable, ready-to-eat meals developed by the US Military for feeding soldiers in the field. They are the most technically advanced food in the world.
All the MRE Meal Kits are prepared and packaged by US Military contractors and contain the same menu items as found in US Military MREs. Each Meal Kit Supply MRE includes an entrée and side dish, bread or cracker and spread (jam or jelly), dessert, beverage mixes, condiments, and spoon.

Chris picked the GEN-X-3 disinfectant, cleaner and purifier spray by Nature Tech Solutions. The GEN-X-3TMsystem consists of a compact docking station and hand-held applicator that together create a powerful, chemical-free sanitizing/disinfecting solution that is 80-200 times more powerful than chlorine, yet safe enough to drink.
Using the convenient and economical GEN-X-3TM system, consumers can now kill infection-causing bacteria, viruses, fungi and spores without the expense and health hazards associated with chemically based cleaning products.

Chris Cebollero, host of the EMS Leadership Podcast hosts his episode in the Physio-Control Podcast Studio for the ProMed Network. In this program, Chris is joined by a group of EMS leaders to talk about the transition from street EMS provider to field training officer or even supervisor. The panel examines what it takes to make the transition successfully and to cope with managing people who used to be your peers.

EMS Leadership Podcast host Chris Cebollero is joined by Dare County, NC EMS Deputy Director Stephen Taylor to talk about some of the most time consuming tasks emergency medical services managers deal with. Chris and Steve met up at EMS World Expo 2012 in New Orleans this past month.
Chris and Steve are both users of EMS Manager for their EMS programs. They discuss the time savings and the ways EMS Manager from Aladtec helps them avoid the headaches of multiple scheduling calendars and managing the diverse needs of their crews. Steve said that his system went from 20 man hours managing the schedule to just four hours per scheduling period. That’s a significant savings in time for a supervisor to use doing other things.
