Two were taken by helicopter ambulance to Texas Health Fort Worth hospital. The other crew member was at Wise Regional Hospital. The accident happened about 12:58 p.m. near the Wise Regional Hospital emergency room. "They were headed to Wichita Falls to pick up a patient," Hoskins said. "They were up about 50 feet when it started to smoke. It then just came back down really hard." The impact smashed out windows and caused other damage to the helicopter, police said. FAA officials were on the scene. From pedsrusscott at cs.com Sat Dec 26 12:27:15 2009 From: pedsrusscott at cs.com (Scott DeBoer RN,MSN) Date: Sat, 26 Dec 2009 12:27:15 -0500 Subject: CE?

Too busy working and going to RN school, so it was a big rush at the end. It is a good format, and a good choice if you find yourself pressed for credits. You do have to actually do them though, you can't just copy and paste search phrases for the tests like some other lesser CE programs that will go unnamed here.

In addition, my most popular presentation, "Tattoos,tongues, & trauma: Body piercing & tattooing - Medical myths vs.research realities" continues to evolve with my ongoing experiences as a non-pierced,non-tattooed medical consultant for the association of professionalpiercers. Lastly, in January, ENA's new Certified Pediatric EmergencyNurse (CPEN) exam debuted and to assist those preparing for the exam, we nowoffer a 1 or 2 day live CPEN review course as well as the only CPEN review bookcurrently in print. More information on these or other live/videopediatric emergency presentations is available at www.peds-r-us.com or pleasee-mail me (scott at peds-r-us.com) if I can assist further Take care and happy new year!
