I would just like to say that I have seen and heard quite a few paramedics talk about Emt's as if they are the greenest know-nothings ever. But I have also seen some paramedics who have become so much like super heros in their own minds, that they become complacent. This is how patients get improper care or interventions that cause death. Like the medic who pushed a lidocaine bolus here in my hometown. Pushed 2 as a matter of fact. Mistakes happen, but that holier than thou look at my patch attitude sometimes causes more problems than just making people not like you very much. The Emt was the one who prevented the 3rd bolus being pushed. Paramedics save lives, emts save paramedics.
