Students from the Golden Valley Paramedic Academy practice their intubation skills on a training mannequin under the supervision of Emergency Room Physician, Dr. Brian Scott. This hands-on class is part of the nine month, 1100 hour class. Captain David Martin said Golden Valley Fire expects to gain five more paramedics for a total of 15 paramedics at Golden Valley Fire after the final National Registry examination. The 24 students came from local fire departments that sponsored this training opportunity. Students pay $3,500 for the class which is instructed by Golden Valley Paramedics John Molitor and Rob Arnold.
