A while back I came across a product designed to be used at point of contact. It was safe for eyes, ears, nose, mouth, etc. Any one know the name of it?

PD is what we did, it was in a small town, everyone knows, everyone. Took a little heat from waiting 20 minutes for PD to arrive, and not calling the number of neighbors who said that they would have come and watched the kids. Just wanted to see if we were missing any other options. To answer...

So here you go, what would you do? You are dispatched to an unknown medical for a 42 yo female. You arrive to find a female, unresponsive, no signs of trauma, yada, yada, yada. Here is the fun part, this female runs an at home day care and there are six - 2 to 5 year olds running around...

yes what little money is around in a small town can be better spent when there are people willing to do the job for free, not a pay check or credit or anything else, but to help our neighbors. We have all levels of training and all do it for free, from paying for the training our selves and...

that is just sad for someone to think that way. There are many, and I would gather to guess the volunteer squads are the majority of providers, so I think that it is sad for someone to have that view point, I just hope that people do not have that same thought, and I also hope that it is not...

So I am working on the new master plan for new members. I am from a complete volunteer squad, no schedule just go if you can. Member retention and training is a key topic lately. One problem is that with FR, or EMT-B trainings taking months to complete they are not offered all the time, local...

found cards 50 for $12 that is the right price for me not to go gross eyed making them myself. found them as a seperate item on www.start-triage.com thank you

We are a 911 transport ambulance, we, at this time, do not bill for service, I know the thought of not charging. Any way, I may have used the term HIPAA out of place. I am looking to do an information privacy lesson for new members, would a HIPAA class be under or over kill?

wondering what is done in your departments for new members and HIPAA? I am helping the training officer with new trainings and topics that I feel are missing, I am taking on new member trainings. Looking at when they can go on ride alongs and feel that HIPAA would be an easy place to start...

I know that these are easy enough to make, but I am wondering if anyone has MCI training patient cards. Any form of these would be awesome. PDF, web site, .doc, etc. I just don't have the modivation to sit down and make a set of 50 to 75 of these. So is there anybody out there, can...

anyone have any links or info on setting up a landing zone (lighting,size, making wind, hazards, etc.). My town is looking at picking a few sites and I am looking for general requirements/ rules of thumb. thanks

For any of you VT medics where did you take your training? What was the schedual like? I am in the Burlington, St. Albans area. but anything will work. eric

"And who on this great blue earth decided to make prior association with an EMS system a prerequisite to certification?? What a preposterous regulation." Keeps out some of the yahoos, and i do mean some., and on a positive side a lot of places will pay, or retro pay for the training after...

most of the full time paid are hard to find, burlington for example is done by the FD and they have tryouts with many people for 1 or two spots these took place in may of 08 and I have been told that they will next be in 2010, there are a few paid on call opertunities but those too are hard...

thats what i am looking for, i knew that there had to be a simple and obvious solution to this

So rather than reinventing the wheel I am guessing that someone here will have an answer for me. I have an over head O2 hookup in my rig. I love having it above the bed and that I am not tripping over it when doing tasks on a transport. The problem that we have is the O2 regualtor is a...

Does anybody know if a CPR for the Professional Rescuer card from the American Red Cross will be acceptable or just AHA.

thanks i saw that too, on the testing paper work it has boxes for I 03 or I 90, I guess that I will the office next week some time

Found that vermont only has 03s and 90s anyone know the difference and which is higher?

most parts of vermont do not have medics:wacko:, so that is not an option for me, i would love to, but in my area there are only 2 providers that due and jobs are very hard to get, you can not even take an emt level course unless you are affiliated with a rescue org.
