    Quit smoking ideas

    I know its probably too late for the person taking about side effects, but when I quit with Chantix, I used it just long enough to stop smoking... I took it for 10 days. When I realized it wasnt going to do anything for the cravings, I stopped taking it so that I didnt get addicted to something...

    How many lights is too many?

    Excuse the ignorance... lights on personal vehicles?? What is the point? I don't know of a single person with lights on their personal vehicles in this whole county (there are 8 911 trucks, 5 non-911 trucks that do mostly transfers)... so thats at least 26 EMTs per day times 3 days.. you get...

    Having Trouble Passing NREMT-B - Suggestions?

    Take your study guides and throw them in the trash!!! I did 4 or 5 of them, they were useless. I think going back to the basics.. 1st quarter stuff is the most important way to study. Get your book out, reread the a,b,c chapters. I just tested at the I-85 level, most of my scenarios were...

    Whats your 2nd job if you have one?

    EMS will be my second job. I've been and will continue to be a stay at home mom since I finished my bs degree 6 years ago. I would love to do PRN work, or find a weekend shift so that our child/future children can be home with 1 parent at all times. My hubby works Tues-Fri, 2pm-midnight.

    'Good' Medic schools?

    All I can say is THANK GOODNESS FOR GA's HOPE GRANT. I didnt pay a dime in tuition or books thanks the the wonderful residents of our stat who play the lottery!!! I will pay some for my associates in Paramedic Technology but it should be less than $1000.00 for the whole program.
