    Original survey research exploring the relationship between self-directed autonomous learning behaviors (as manifest in the psychological construct of learner autonomy) and effectiveness as a leader. Demographic factors such as age, tenure, years in the organization, marital status, and gender were also analyzed in the relationship.
    Although there were no significant correlations found between learner autonomy and leadership effectiveness, it was discovered that the demographic variables had no effect on a leaders' abilities or effectiveness. This demonstrated that a leader could be highly effective regardless of demographic factors studied.

    Approved to conducted a 12-month clinical pilot study investigating the safety and efficacy of the transport of insulin by Class 3 Interfacility Paramedics in the State of West Virginia.

    This clinical pilot study was approved by the Medical Policy Care Committee (MPCC) comprised of the State Medical Director for EMS and the Regional Medical Directors for all 9 regions of WV.
    WV Class 3 interfacility paramedic training is shorter and less intense in nature than a traditional critical care level program (i.e.: CCT, FP-C, CCP-P, UMBC CC-EMTP).

    After a 6 month review of the data, the pilot study was shown to be successful and the state medical director committee needed no further data collected.

    Insulin was previously a critical care only medication but shown to be safely transported, utilized, and titrated by the WV Class 3 level of interfacility paramedic and was approved to be placed in the statewide protocol for the Class 3 level paramedic formulary.
