Chad Kaiser, an EMT-I with Jamestown Area Ambulance, was recently recognized by the board of directors of the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians for achieving 20 consecutive years as a Nationally Registered EMT. This distinction is an honor held by few EMTs.

To maintain his status as a Nationally Registered EMT, Kaiser completes, on a biennial basis, the most comprehensive recertification program for Emergency Medical Technicians in America. He completes courses to refresh his fundamental knowledge and skills and also attends a minimum of two hours per month of additional continuing education courses to advance his knowledge on new lifesaving skills.

By maintaining his Nationally Registered status and completing a regular continuing education course, Kaiser is among the few EMTs with the most training in pre-hospital emergency medical care in the nation.

Kaiser was nationally registered as an EMT in August 1991 and has been serving the city of Jamestown and Stutsman County since. The National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians serves as the national EMS certification organization by providing a valid, uniform process to assess the knowledge and skills required for competent practice by EMS professionals throughout their careers and by maintaining a registry of certification status.
