Im new in this profession. I am also now in my quest, to be a professional.
For the next year..ill be working for my respect and trust on the ambulance.
SO FAR, im not in it for the money. I am in it because I love EMS. If I am lucky..i wont have to work a day in this career. I am young and am following my heart..maybe the rest will follow. EMT pay should allow the life i want. EMS is a GOOD thing that has happen to me. It makes me happy. I get more out of the run of the mill, basic call then any patient does. SERVICE? as far is i see it...if get to work in EMS, the richest man in the world. As long as i challenge my self. I hope there will always be some "hard ***"(like my dad) that may possess something(skill,grace,patience,clarity,calm) to pass down. I hope I find a mentor, or two...or three.
(emergency medical)Service? Service, that you get at burger king? Service for your community? Country? A NO CHARGE Service for the fellow man, the band your stuck with, when and if all hell(and it just may) brakes loose?
10 years from now..maybe ill have a car....a girlfriend..house on the hill..the best phone..new car...and life just wont be good enough....maybe I wont be happy. ll need more. I hope that EMS is left,in better condition..more evolved, then it was when i came in.
BUT, How do some of you say EMS is not respected? I ride the bus to volunteer..and in talking strangers at the bus stop..really anyone i have met in life...the public opinion is that EMT and paramedic are respected.
Every War this country is in... EMS makes an advance in the causality fatality rate. As long as research, trial and error proceed...so will ems, i believe. The oldschool show "emergency"? Look at today! WOW!
I thought i would respect every paramedic or EMT B I met. That is not the case. For the value i get , In seeing what i want to be/learn, and what i dont want to learn/be...is great.
What has been your experience to feel that EMS is not respected?
"HEY, JEDI MASTER" What do you expect from the new, incoming generation of EMT's? You have put years in EMS..who would you fell good about making the hand off to?
IF a new generation of EMT's where your children, what lessons,what values...what would you want to pass down to them?
I just finished intermediate. I got a good 10-20 years of labor in me...what do yall expect from me?
