The environment at ASM is very conducive to someone who wants to learn as much as possible. My preceptors, Scott Crittenden and Tim Lachappelle, are a wealth of knowledge and I was fortunate enough to see a variety of situations with each of them during my 12 weeks of precepting. Through their support, the support of my wife, family, friends, co-workers, and my instructors from the Greenfield Community College Paramedic Program, I feel I am as ready as I can be to take on the challenge of working as an independent Paramedic and to continue to learn each and every day.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with all precepting phases\nat&nbsp;ASM,&nbsp;Scott\u2019s final approval came from Eastern Connecticut Health\nNetwork&nbsp;after shadowing&nbsp;him and&nbsp;his preceptors in the field as\nthey responded to emergency calls. On behalf of the ASM Family, we would like\nto wish Scott the best of luck and say we are very proud to have such skilled\nprofessionals on staff.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MANCHESTER&nbsp;\u2013 As of February 15th 2019, ASM\u2019s Scott Harrington has been cleared by Eastern Connecticut Health Network&nbsp;medical control for independent dispatch as a paramedic to the towns that ASM&nbsp;serves.
