New tests and options for Maine EMS licenses
If you apply for a basic EMS license in Maine, you must pass two exams. You must pass a Maine state written test and a board‑approved hands‑on skills test. To meet the skills rule for your license level, you can choose one of two paths: run report reviews plus continuing education that follow board rules, or the same written and practical tests.
