    Trained or not I will stop. Can't fathom the thought that someone died because I didn't atleast offer help.

    Study, Study Study. Since you have a base knowledge it will help. Don't be too over confident though. My time as a basic on a 911 car helped a lot. The things you see on the ambulance now will start to make more sense. And you can pull real world cases into the classroom.

    It is the one major thing that I struggled with during school. EKG interpretation can be a bitch
