I would be interested in offshore if you are the POC for that?

My guess is the "approved by administrator" is an attempt to keep spam out. It's actually time consuming for the Mods and Admin so I would have to say Kudo's for them doing it.

Hello, I work overseas as a remote medic and have for a couple of years now. To answer your questions from the civilian side of the house most places require you to be a Paramedic with 3+ years of experience. Most here have a lot more than that actually. The usual alphabet cards to include...

My two cents having been in the military, deployed and currently on the other side of the world as a civilian is don’t join until after you adopt if that is your 1st priority in life. The needs of the military come 1st when you are in and being "non deployable" isn’t as much of a guarantee...

I know this is late but if you want 68W I would stick with it. If you want to be high speed and are a PT stud try the 18D route as was mentioned before. Maybe even try the pararescue with the USAF. My advice would be if you want to be a medic in the military don’t settle for anything else...

Good luck, I have done the Chantix and the "laser" without quitting. As somone above mentioned you have to want to quit and commit to it. I wish you the best of luck.

When I went through the Army medic school the 1st couple of weeks were geared towards the national Registry at the EMT level. If you passed you passed, if not life went on. They now make it mandatory (good thing) along with maintaining it they have added some other stuff mainly geared towards...

Most USAF FF’s I think are EMT’s at most I think. As far as being 1st on scene I am willing to bet it is because the call is routed to you. It’s kind of a sore subject for me because I work on a military base in the big sand box and have been called by the FD as an afterthought a couple of...

A Navy corpsman will probably give you a deeper knowledge base that an Army medic. I went through Army medic school in 91, EFMB, etc so I am not knocking them. Just my opinion. I would probably stay away from the medical portion in the Air Force but I couldn’t give you a reason other than I...

I have tried the chantix twice. It made me want to peel skin off of people with a potato peeler I got so angry while I was taking it. There are actually some side effects to it, I cant remember the site that goes into some of them but if you Google it I am sure you will find it. As far as...

All 91W (US Army Medics) are NREMT-B. That is a requirement to pass the school and it must be maintained to hold the MOS. In regards to experience as a medic in the Army it depends on where you go. Some medics are taught to intubate, all medics do IV’s and push some meds to a lesser extent. It...

In the City of Detroit Basics make 14 to start and medics make close to 23 at the top.

We have the red button, supposedly when you press it an alert goes off at dispatch and at the State police network monitoring station. It was supposed to tie in to the MDC/MDT’s that they are thinking of taking back as they were paid for by the trash department or someone and belong to...

I have actually been part of that crew a couple times in recent years as bad as it sounds. I have some questions first actually. How many people responded and were on scene when EMS arrived. Just how safe was the scene? I understand rigor is rigor and most of us realize that the...

Depending on what you add to vbulletin you might have to change the cookie path to ./emtlife/ or whatever the option is in the admincp and set it the same in flashchat, photopost, vbgallery, etc so that it follows you through the whole site. I pulled hair literally figuring that one out...

As long as you are number 38 in the database when it imports through impex for vbulletin it should put the same, i.e. 38

TTLWHKR- Are you saying that you got an email out of the blue with just that in it? I ask because I don’t pay for that kind of advertising. If you do a search on certain terms with Google, yahoo, msn, etc an ad shows. If you use hotmail, yahoo, gmail or a couple of other free emails an ad...

I am guessing it is advertising within an email someone sent you? Hotmail, gmail, yahoo etc? Not a spam email? I ask because it is my site and I am not trying to advertise it with spam to your mailbox. Actually, I hadn’t wanted to advertise the site here at all. MMitz seems pretty right on in...

I used to work in southern California and we ran a newer version of that as a "medic squad." We had a set of "spreaders" that were a good 3-4 feet tall and had to weigh close to 100lbs. Every time we turned right I was worried they would come flying out the side door onto some ladies car or...

Actually, he was very helpful. I just couldnt let my integrity go to waste on such a simple incidient.. Besides, I was pretty proud of it at the ER.."hey...check this out..."
