LOL! And don't forget, he was THANKFUL!!

I don't know about everyone else, but I've had days where I could only hope we would be mistaken for a service van! As for the OP, I have to agree with the no lights sentiment most everyone has already expressed.

Guess who just got a job offer and is once again gainfully employed? I only had to spend about a month unemployed.

Ask away! No one is going to know what you want them to do, if you don't speak up and give some direction. As long as you are polite and respectful, no one should have any problems doing anything you ask of them. It's just part of the job. Not everyone can be the lead, stepping back and...

I think the best response I have ever gotten to that question was "John :censored::censored::censored::censored:in' Fogerty, man!"

Interview went great! Now to wait impatiently for them to call & make me an offer. In the meantime, I got a phone call on the way home to schedule an interview for another app I had completed. Hopefully my stint on unemployment will be a short one!

Interview in a couple hours. Wish me luck!

Remember that just because the doc advises you to transport, that doesn't mean you "have" to transport. The patient is still able to refuse to go. At that point you just document that the patient was advised of the risks, what you did to try to get them to go, why they refused, and that they...

Yep! That's my boy! Thanks!

I hope everyone is having fun and staying safe tonight!

Job interview on Friday. Wish me luck!

Granted, he hasn't mentioned the name of the company, but there is only one in Marion County that runs 911. Anything else is going to be private service. That being said, odds are, it wouldn't be the 911 service that is hiring right now. So, how does running the renal roundup teach how...

This is what I have found the report useful for. One of the cases I was supposed to testify about, I had absolutely no recollection at all about it, until I read my report. Then I was able to remember quite a bit about it. The report has most likely already been gotten and is a part of the...

If you still work for the employer that you worked for when the run occurred, there is a very high likelihood you will be reimbursed for your time. Check with them prior to going to court. Some employers will require specific things of you to be reimbursed for your time. They may also expect...

That is totally cool! I had a patient a couple years ago that was a WWII vet. He moved to the US sometime after the war. I swear he has to be one of the coolest people I ever met. He was a double agent for Great Britain.

Currently, IEMS only has part-time positions available for medics. They are just about to start a hiring process for basics in the next week or so and are looking at hiring somewhere around 12. IU Health has the contract at Lucas Oil for the first aid stations. I am not sure who does...

If you get your EMT cert, you can walk into pretty much any private service company in Indiana and get hired on the spot. Your age isn't even really a factor because if you aren't old enough to drive on their insurance, they will just pair you up with a driver and you will have to tech every...

From this article by Dr. Bledsoe: Whether it is 8 minutes or 10 minutes, since it is outside of the mentioned 4 minute window, does it really matter? Lots of areas that have separate fire and EMS do the same thing. Getting a medic onscene stops the clock, so they give the ambulance a couple...

Things I have learned today (after less than 12 hours in Chicago with two boys): 1. Apparently, even in a place as busy as downtown Chicago, it is possible for a 9 year old to be oblivious enough to his surroundings that he will still walk out into the middle of the street without looking if...

No board. Transport in the position of least discomfort.
