Who can participate?
EMTs, EMT-Intermediates, EMT-Critical Care Technicians and EMT-Paramedics may participate in the Pilot Program if they are currently certified, actively providing prehospital care and members of a participating agency. Participation is limited to those providing care with participating agencies in Delaware, Fulton, Hamilton, Montgomery, Nassau, Otsego, Schoharie and Suffolk counties ONLY. Each participant must complete a “Participant Registration Form” (EMS-5P) which will be submitted with the agency registration as a package. Participation is voluntary. An EMS Agency may not require a member/employee to participate in the pilot program. Any participant that chooses to withdraw from the program will expire on the date listed on their most recently issued EMT card. The participant must then recertify through a traditional recertification course. Participants must be “in continuous practice.” To participate in the 5-year pilot program the EMT/AEMT must be currently certified and actively
Because only males inherit the Y-chromosome from their fathers, a male test subject is needed for the Y-DNA tests that provide the backbone of surname DNA studies such as ours. The subject needs to be a direct paternal descendant—in other words, for our project, his father’s father’s father… (anywhere along the all-male ancestral line) needs to have been a Maness. Because most of the time surnames, like Y-chromosomes, are passed from father to son to son…, most of the time the test subject himself will also be a Maness, but of course there could be exceptions in cases where, somewhere along the line, for whatever reason, a son did not carry his father’s surname. Females can participate by recruiting male relatives who are direct paternal descendants of their Maness lines. Alternatively, another type of DNA, called mitochondrial DNA, is always inherited (by both males and females) from the mother. In other words, it comes from the mother’s mother’s mother… along the direct materna
EMTs, EMT-Intermediates, EMT-Critical Care Technicians and Paramedics may participate in the Pilot Program if they are currently certified, actively providing prehospital care at the certification level they are seeking and are current active members or employees of an agency already registered in the pilot program. The agency must be authorized to provide the level of care for which the participant is seeking recertification. For example, a Paramedic can not recertify through a registered agency that only provides a level of care up to the Intermediate level. Participation is voluntary. An EMS Agency can not require a member/employee to participate in the pilot program. Participants may withdraw from the program at any time. Participants must be “in continuous practice.” To participate in the pilot program the EMT/AEMT must be currently certified and actively providing prehospital care. Their application to renew their certification must be postmarked at least 45 days before, but no m
