Question Me ?!?!?!

[Sasha]

If you could change one thing about EMS, what would it be ?

Stricter schools. Not just education wise, but entrance wise so we could weed out those who are just in EMS for the lights and sirens while also providing a higher educational standard.

What's one thing that makes you gag?

Change EMS and wrecking ambulances...

Change EMS: too many inmates as patients. No, wait, mine are 100% inmates..
I have, variously, ripped the seat off a broken bench seat then out of a unit with my bare hands; had a seat pedestal in a semi-modular Dodge tear itself loose from the floor and was being held by the seatbelt I was wearing; and drove in the curb lane by a bent NO PARKING sign which neatly tore one of the can lights off the side of the roof cap on that selfsame semi-modular Dodge.

No accidents except backing into a 50 lb CO2 extinguisher on the flightlin in the rescue truck, between two pumpers and in front of the asst chief. No damage to the Powerwagon but the extinguishers wheels were a little bit "Little Rascals" after that.

OK, question: Have you ever worked with someone who just has to start an IV and oxygen on everyone, maybe apply a C collar, basically just gets treatment happy nearly every time for no good reason but that they can?

Well, I can honestly say that I havent gotten the pleasure to work with those paraGods yet, And not only that, I have vowed for as long as I started school, that I would never be one of those medics either.

trick question, lemmy is god. Too obscure? Besides clinicals I spend more than 10 hours a week reading and/or listening to music.

I knew it, just didn't see this thread to respond to that question appropriately until just now. I loved Airheads

 

[Flight-LP]

Hmm.. Probably the cutest was the one I made for my little cousin's third birthday. It was an elephant in a green polka dot dress with a cute little green headband! Haha.

What is your favorite part of EMS?

Admit it, you have that same dress!

 

[reaper]

No, I see Sasha in red polka dots, not green ones!!!!

Yup but he was new, turned around once to get something and while my back was turned the pt has sneezed and had an IV in.

Felt like the pt sneezed and your man had the iv in after it, i'm sure it was the other way around but we got a good laugh.


Q: Quiet or loud pts? As in personality not unresponsive or screaming child.

 

[mikeN]

quiet pt's. The loud ones are either HofH or you ask about their medical hx and they tell you about how they sliced off their finger tip when they ran a landscaping business in the 70s and how many people hey had that worked for them and go on and on. It's hard to interupt those people.

What was your longest relationship, EVER ?

 

[Sasha]

Butter pecan.


What was your longest relationship, EVER ?

almost 2 years.

The jerk.

 

[BossyCow]

Favorite ice cream is coffee. Can't do the chocolate thing, I'm deathly allergic.

So, the least favorite run is the runs run?
Mine is the people who share their tiny travel trailer with an assortment of animals (the worst was the guy who lived with three ferretts)who smell that particular combination of cheap cigarettes, cheaper beer, unwashed clothes and poor hygiene. That smell just won't leave my nose!

Longest relationship EVER will be 27 years this April.

I don't own horses, I ride a friend's. My rule is I won't own an animal too big to lift into my car for a ride to the vet's. My latest dog is pushing that envelope!

How do you like your eggs?
