Hey all,
I'm approaching the half way marker in my training. So far, I love this, and I'm excited to get real world experience. I have some questions that I figured you guys may be able to answer?
1) We are going to need patient contact experience soon. I have a company that I would love to work for who is willing to take me along in a time-slot. Are there any companies that will do an "internship" in some sort? Such as maybe going in volunteer on a single shift each week to get some real world practice? How would I go about asking for that? Is it possible / likely?
2) As far as a stethoscope, I bought a $20 MDF Acoustica. It came with a lifetime warranty on everything but the tubing. I figured this is all I needed. Should I have purchased a more "branded" Littman? I likewise bought a cheap but rugged watch that tells military and analog time.
3) We took our AHA BLS / CPR course, and I passed. Are we going to be receiving the cards in the mail? How does that work? I want to make sure that I receive it.
Thanks
