How Mededsys.com Organizes Courses by State and Profession
Updated
Mededsys.com splits its catalog two ways: first by profession, then by state. If you are a respiratory therapist, the site asks you to pick your state from a dropdown before showing you courses, which routes you to the regional section that matches your licensing board. Nurses get a separate entry point. Within each path you can choose between standard online courses, live CEU webinars, memberships, and sale items.
The two-step navigation logic
The site treats profession and state as separate filters rather than one combined catalog.
- Profession first. The homepage presents distinct entry points: Respiratory Therapists, a Nurses link, and a general healthcare professional audience. Each leads to its own course set.
- State second (for respiratory therapists). Under the Respiratory Therapists heading, the site states: "Please pick your state below to be taken to the correct regional section of courses." A full dropdown lists all 50 states plus the District of Columbia.
So the practical path for an RT is: choose your state → land in that region's course section → shop courses, webinars, memberships, or sale items.
Why the state step matters
Continuing education requirements are set at the state board level, not nationally. By routing you to a regional section, the site aims to show courses that align with your state's renewal rules. California is called out specifically: there is a dedicated page for "CA BOARD OF RESPIRATORY REQUIREMENTS AND MEMBERSHIP" and a "NEW CA BOARD RT REQs UPDATE" link, suggesting California RTs have requirements that differ enough to warrant their own section.
What you can shop in each section
Once you are in the right regional or professional section, the catalog breaks into these categories:
| Category | What it is |
|---|---|
| Courses | Standard online accredited CE courses |
| Live CEUs / Webinars | Scheduled live sessions, described as AARC-nationwide approved and CEBROKER compliant |
| Memberships | Membership access, listed as a separate shop category |
| On sale | Discounted courses |
Subject areas listed across the catalog include respiratory, critical care, disease control, ventilator management, pharmacology, infectious disease, sleep disorders, and leadership.
Discount codes shown on the site
The homepage advertises two checkout codes:
- TAKE10 — takes $10 off an order at checkout.
- GET50 — buy one course, get 50% off the second.
These are promotional codes displayed on the site itself; confirm they still apply at checkout before relying on them.
Who this structure suits
This organization works well if you already know your profession and state and want to jump straight to relevant courses. It is less convenient if you want to browse the entire catalog at once, since the state gate for respiratory therapists means you see one region's offerings rather than everything.
For nurses, the separate Nurses link is the starting point rather than the state dropdown. If you are neither an RT nor a nurse, the site describes itself as serving "healthcare professionals" more broadly, so check whether your specific credential appears before assuming coverage.
Background on the provider
Mededsys (Medical Education Systems, Inc.) states it was founded in 1997 and offers distance-learning accredited courses. It lists accreditation references including the California Board of Registered Nursing, Florida Board of Nursing, and DC Board of Nursing, and describes its respiratory offerings as AARC-nationwide approved. If your renewal depends on a specific board's acceptance, verify your own board's approved-provider list rather than relying on the site's summary.
