First you must possess a valid California State paramedic license. You must complete and submit an application for accreditation in San Diego County. You must take and complete an accreditation workshop lasting between 6 and 12 hours as prescribed by the medical director. The course covers local protocols and policies and may include training on skills the student has not previously been tested for. You must also provide documentation of training or testing from another jurisdiction for local optional scope items. You must pay the established local accreditation fee and provide proof of possession of a current ACLS course completion card. San Diego County paramedic protocols are available to download online for free or in a small pocket flipbook at San Diego County EMS for a nominal fee.
