Hola my name is Manda

In school for EMT-B I would like to be a Flight Medic.
I work with Hospice, CPR Certified , A.E.D skills I went to school for physical therapy assistant but my heart is really with Hospice/Elderly peeps <3 and helping others and I know where I want to be I signed up for a phlebotomy vocational class I start right after Thanksgiving, I figured that would help having that under my belt plus I've always wanted to learn phlebotomy.

Well besides that I'm just me .... down to earth Manda, love music and the ocean and GREAT WHITE SHARKS!

Hey Everyone,

My name is Tasha I am 23 years old, I live in Reno,NV I am about to start my EMT-B course on Jan 22nd of the spring semester, I am also going to be a first time mom around Dec 12th. Very excited,nervious and proud of myself for going after my dreams. I'm sure I am in for a lot of hard work with being a first time mom (single mom) and a first time college student but I know I can do it.

My original plans in the past were to go into Nursing school but math is not my strongest point and I really don't feel like being in college for 4 years. I've always known I wanted to be in the medical field and I feel that this is exacly where I belong.

I'm looking forward to getting to know some of you guys better and if there is anyone on here from Reno it would be great to get more details from you as far was wages, regulations and so on.

Thanks,

Tasha

Hello

Hey guys! My name is Nicole, I'm from CT and I'll be 22 years old next month. I just signed up to EMTLIFE tonight hoping I can gain some insight, advice, and familiarize myself with the world of EMS.

I'm currently a college student and I start my EMT-Basic training January 2011.

Any tips for a beginner just starting out would be greatly appreciated.
I'm hoping to engage in some interesting discussions with you guys in the future.

Best of luck to everyone else just starting out!
To those of you who already have previous EMS experience: thank you, and keep it up - I'm looking forward to learning a lot from you guys.
