Entry-level Emergency Medical Response training is 90 hrs.

This is equivalent to coding bootcamp.

An EMT-Basic's scope of practice is so small, there isn't an analogy applicable to software.

If a doctor is equivalent to a software engineer, than an EMT is equivalent to a business analyst who can only work on 3% of your projects and is only present a few hours per week.

I have nothing against EMTs. I earned an EMT-Basic license a number of years back.
