PCHD EMS' Clinical Supervisors John Wheeler and Lane Matheny join our host Jeff McNew to take you through the Airway Class they provide for our paramedics.

Edit*

Hey guys, I had to redo some of the audio and while I was at it figured I would see if people on the listening side of things would rather have the complete Airway Class all in one file, so here it is.

This is the Audio only portion of our Airway class. There are slides associated with this class that can be viewed with the video on our Youtube channel. I'm posting this here for those that just want to listen while commuting. While there is good content in the slides you can easily glean all the information here from the Podcast.

We have included most of their slides and have made this fit as well as it can into podcast form. Below are their sources and the licensing for the music we used.
