Shoutout to Johnathan Autrey from Magnet Academy for Cultural Arts (MACA) for completing his Emergency Medical Responder Instructor renewal! EMR instructors from across Louisiana are required to renew their licenses every two years to stay at the top of their game. Johnathan represented St. Landry Parish proudly as our lone representative at the, 16 hour (2 day) in person training hosted at the National EMS Academy in Lafayette. After collaborating with peers from all over the state and earning 16 hours of continuing education credits, he officially renewed his certification. Way to go, Johnathan!👏👏
