How did you get into EMS?

Medical explorer? That's a new term to me, what's involved?

It was an explorer group sponsored by the local paramedic service. It was awesome,we had monthly meetings/trainings,and we also got to know the medics that worked there and also how things are done. Explorers are pretty much like the boy and girl scouts.
If I remember right,you have to be I believe 15-21 to be in the group.

OMG, I know exactly what you're talking about! I used to be a pathfinder, which I guess is the younger group before you become an explorer. Cool

Ain't that the truth.

I remember watching Reruns when on summer vacation, before the FD was a thought in my head... and I LOVED it! It definatly planted the seed.

My brother dared me to join the volunteer fire department in our community. at the time, there were no females in the fire service where I live. Then took an EMT-B course. Everything mushroomed from there. Have been a Paramedic for ??? years, and training officer in my service for over 10 years.:blush:
