EMS Advancement - EMT Nima Sheyban to Charge Status

BVFD Team -

The BVFD proudly announces the advancement of EMT Nima Sheybani to Charge Status on Ambulance 715..

EMT Sheyani joined the BVFD in August of 2019, with his Maryland EMT certification.  Over the past eight months he has completed multiple specialized training programs to ensure he possesses all required courses:

- Maryland Emergency Medical Technician Course

- Hazardous Materials - First Responder Operations

- Protective Envelope & Foam

- NIMS IS100 Incident Command System

- NIMS IS200 Federal Disaster Worker

- NIMS IS400 Incident Command

- NIMS IS700 National Incident Management System

- NIMS IS800 National Response Plan

- Blood Borne Pathogens

- Radio Operations

- MDC Operations

- eMEDS Patient Care Reporting

- Firehouse Statistical Reporting

- EEO/AA and the Law

- Cultural Diversity

Even after all of the academy training, EMT Sheybani completed many steps before taking command of a BVFD Ambulance.  EMT Sheybani successfully completed a series of comprehensive written and practical in-station examinations. After completing all tests, EMT Sheybani rode “Charge” under the evaluation of an experienced Charge EMT for a series of evaluation calls. This process is designed to allow the EMT to demonstrate knowledge and ability in the field, before being permitted to be in charge of an Ambulance and crew in any situation.

The BVFD congratulates EMT Sheybani for completing this challenging process and earning Charge status in just eight months.  Your dedication to serving our community is greatly appreciated.
