  1. Which of the following is an example of an outcome measure used in EMS program accreditation?

    Answer: First-attempt NREMT pass rate of graduating students

    First-attempt NREMT pass rates are a key outcome measure that accreditors use to evaluate program effectiveness.

  2. A program's medical director is responsible for which aspect of accreditation compliance?

    Answer: Overseeing the clinical and medical aspects of the curriculum and ensuring medical oversight of student practice

    The medical director provides required physician oversight of medical content and student clinical practice, a mandatory accreditation requirement.

  3. If a FISDAP program's attrition rate significantly exceeds the national average, what accreditation concern does this raise?

    Answer: The program may have inadequate student support services or admissions standards, which accreditors will scrutinize

    Accreditors review attrition data as an indicator of program quality, support services, and appropriate student selection.

  4. What is the significance of a 'Continued Accreditation with a Progress Report' finding from CoAEMSP?

    Answer: The program is accredited but must submit additional documentation addressing specific concerns by a set deadline

    This status means accreditation continues but the program must provide a progress report demonstrating improvement in identified areas.

  5. Under FISDAP compliance, why is it important that preceptors verify student-documented skills in real time rather than retrospectively?

    Answer: Real-time verification ensures accuracy and reduces the risk of false or fabricated entries

    Real-time preceptor verification ensures that documented skills accurately reflect actual student performance, protecting data integrity required for accreditation.

  6. Which federal law requires EMS programs that receive federal financial aid to meet specific quality standards or face sanctions?

    Answer: The Higher Education Act, administered through the Department of Education

    The Higher Education Act requires institutions receiving federal financial aid to maintain accreditation recognized by the Department of Education.

  7. How does FISDAP's field internship tracking help programs comply with the requirement for supervised field experience?

    Answer: It documents the number of shifts, patient contacts, and preceptor-verified skills completed in the field setting

    FISDAP's field internship module captures shift hours, patient contacts, and preceptor-verified skills, providing auditable evidence of required supervised field experience.
