I’m no longer working as an EMT, but I’d like to continue to hold certification. Do I have to apply for inactive status?
No, as far as your Texas EMT certificate is concerned, you don’t have to apply for inactive status just because you’re not actively working for an EMS provider. Even if not employed as an emergency medical care provider, individuals can continue to retain active certification by continuing to meet all recertification/education requirements. (Note: That’s how Texas inactive certification differs from NREMT inactive status. NREMT inactive status is designated for NREMT-registrants who have been working in EMS, but are not currently actively engaged in ambulance/rescue service or health/patient care activity. Those on NREMT inactive status must continue to meet refresher, CPR and CE requirements.
