I've had a couple of days like that, they were awesome but I got really really tired because I was always waiting for the call… which never came! Honestly, those days were kind of worse than slow days.

I can't stand those days. They move along very slowly. I like to get ~5-7 calls in a 12 hour shift.

I used to hate slow days. Now I enjoy them when they happen, if I were working. I miss work.

Went over 12-lead with the EMT students today. Had a female student volunteer to have the 12-lead placed. She has regular occurring PVCs, that she wasn't aware of. She just felt her heart always skip a beat. Having to explain to the class why some of the squiggly lines were bigger and looked funny from the others was a little hard haha.
Female student wanting a 12 lead placed, risky!

Also a very good learning experience.
That's awesome though. Probably benign but proof in the pudding that the U.S. Doesn't do a very good job of screening people, especially young people.
We've got a 21 year old medic who's chronically in a 3AVB in the 40s. I was doing the equipment portion of his academy and he told me that so I handed him the cables and told him to put his money where his mouth was.
One of those "Oh snap!" Moments.

Every semester we will usually get 1-2 girls in each class (total of 4 classes) who volunteer for the 12-lead. The best part is seeing the guys faces when they realize they will be placing it on her and not me.

Reminds me of the time a dude in my basic class popped wood while a girl was practicing trauma assessment on him. He was laying on top of the desks too so there was no hiding it OTL

Wow.
Someone has never been with a girl before... lol
A trauma assessment is far from sensual... until you get to the TC and they check rectal tone and for frank blood...then it gets kinky

All depends on how you're doing your hand sweeps to check for bleeding.
