Free Open Access Medical education For Resuscitation And Training. With medicine evolving on a daily basis, it is important that providers stay up-to-date. With this mindset, free open access medical education (FOAMed) was born. The FOAMfrat team is made up of clinicians from around the world who strive to cut down the knowledge-translation window by utilizing creative and engaging content.
FOAMfrat started off and is still a free blog and podcast for pre-hospital clinicians. We found providers enjoyed the FOAMfrat style of content delivery, and listening to podcasts on their daily commute became routine. What if clinicians could get credit for the content they chose to listen to? It is with this framing that we built our fully accredited EMS Library. The cost of the refresher helps FOAMfrat support the maintenance of our learning management system, assure proper accreditation, and routinely updating content.
We did not think the importance of each of the IBSC required learning points would be covered in only 16 hours, so we spread them out over more classes (you need a total of 100 anyway). You can choose for our 40 hour or 100 hour IBSC FP-C / CCP-C refresher. Each of the courses you take will be a CAPCE accredited course by itself, so the hours are individually valuable as well. Once you complete all of the courses in our IBSC section (located in your profile), you will gain an IBSC-specific certification that you can submit to the IBSC for full credit towards your FP-C and/or CCP-C.

The CFRN can also use our course for recertification. CFRN does not require a specific review course, so the credit gained from each individual course in Studio can be used towards recertification. We accredit these hours through our California Board of Nursing accreditation.
Absolutely! Your CAPCE accredited course will be uploaded to your NREMT Transcript by CAPCE (just click the 'import CAPCE' button).
Yes, through our CAPCE accreditation. Your courses are automatically uploaded to NREMT via CAPCE.
Absolutely. The classes break down difficult topics very well, and you will have a much better understanding of concepts you need to pass your NREMT.
Currently, we upload to the Virginia EMS Portal and CE Broker for FL and TN.
For a complete list of courses approved by the Virginia Office of EMS, click the link below.
We will also be uploading to CE Broker soon.
There is currently no universal system for automatic uploading to each state. This means you will have to keep track of the certificates you earn (which we make easy in our Studio platform). When a system like this does become available, we will do our best to ease the process for everyone.
Your membership is 1 year in length.
The number of hours is always increasing, since we write and record new content every month. We have 200+ hours of content in our on-demand library and cycle through 150+ live classes as well. The recorded hours alone are enough to satisfy your NREMT, State, and IBSC needs.
All certificates communicate with NREMT, through CAPCE and allow ease of transfer after completion. Students maintain access to all the above for one year from the day of purchase. All hours are awarded via the Commission on Accreditation for Pre-Hospital Continuing Education (CAPCE) for EMS providers as well as the California Board for Nursing for nursing providers.
We focus on creativity and practicality. We want the you to be entertained, and then realize that you didn't waste your time on something you're not even sure how to apply to your practice. We don't do any death by powerpoint, and instead focus on illustration, understanding, and application.
