I was asked to apply for my employing hospitals HEMS at a year and a half as a medic (same 3 year requirement). BUT we share a director and ive been building that relationship since day 1 at my service. I never did apply though, Im not sure im ready to give up 911 or my spot yet.

So on top of a blue mohawkesque thing my roomie wants to do to my hair, he is now suggesting I go red for the Cardinals game too....Guess I am gonna be a rainbow this month. Probably gonna end up with a red racing stripe and goatee or something.

One of our firefighters in PS has a mohawk. Not sure how he gets around regs with that though.

That awkward moment when you get a CPR needed alert from the PulsePoint app....but I literally had just stepped out of the shower at home and only had a towel on:confused: (plus the fact the address was an apartment complex.....yeah let me Ricky Rescue my way to someone's home "Hi, I'm a random stranger in a Dodgers t-shirt, do you need me to be a hero??":oops:) But hey, saw Schaefer and a County Squad and Engine race by before I could get dressed so I'll leave the Ricky-ness to the guys on the clock (looked like the Schaefer might get to use their AED as they were a good min in front of the County guys...:cool:)

I'm keeping them on a bit if a leash, it needs to look like a regular haircut when not all messed up, it won't be too crazy. That and I always wear a hat, I can hide it from the sups.

A lot of So Cal fire departments use it. LA County and City, all the Verdugo system departments (Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena, etc), most all of OC and San Diego uses it as well. Heck I can open the app now and see what Honolulu EMS is doing lol (funny thing is that it's just the EMS dept there on the app, can't see Honolulu Fire Dept on it.....which is the opposite here, can see what County Fire is doing, but they don't bother showing which ambulance is with them ha......but OCFA will list the Care unit on their calls as well, so it's a bit of a mixed bag)

Savannah uses it. My old county in DE uses it. In fact, they asked me to make the radio commercial to promote it. :)

"Hi, I'm a random stranger in a Dodgers t-shirt, do you need me to be a hero??"

This strikes me as the major issue with PulsePoint...
I mean, if I'm in the same supermarket, or, heck, a block away, I'd mosey over. But somebody's house? Not likely.

Pretty much my thoughts, say I'm at Albertsons and it pops off for the Starbucks 50 ft away across the parking lot, I might find myself moseying on over, or even this morning one of the 2 church's next to our block or the brake shop on the corner, even if I was still in my company t-shirt on my way home from work I'd be hard pressed to show up to a private residence off duty uninvited...
