I love paramedicine! This is totally my passion! I absolutely cannot wait to be working on the ambulance. There's just one catch. I'm also totally intimidated! I trained as an Army medic in 2009, and followed it civilian side with a state college (politics...) in 2011. The thing is, after I passed my NREMT- I never got a job as an EMT! I ended up in Costa Rica doing yoga and got married. 2 years later, my husband saw that I needed to be working on the bus and I'm back stateside. I'm chasing my refresher course training, skills test and re-gaining my NREMT. My license is active in Florida, and I'm trying to get reciprocity in SC. But that's not the point. The point is, I haven't touched the equipment, a patient or an ambulance in over 2 years! I don't think I can remember how to operate everything on the bus. I'm terrified of my skills test! I'm so doubting myself because I'm so rusty. My passion is there, and the knowledge is coming back to me with intensive studying. I was also top of my classes. I just want to be fit for duty and really want to know how I can get back in the game without diving head first into the deep end and finding out I can't swim anymore!
