Friends and family have asked me the same thing. "Aren't you gonna get the shot?" I say no I'm not, thanks. My reasoning is that myself and my girlfriend are in a combined 10 or so facilities a day, ranging from doctors offices to ER quarantine rooms. I have personally transported a couple...

There are a LOT of "what-ifs". But since this is an actual patient and not a hypothetical one I think the only "what-if" that I would be concerned about is "what if I had done more?" . The difference btw to me between an adult and a child is that the adult has had time to live his life and...

Here's a comment on the subject: The locker does not belong to him. Ever hear the phrase "when you're in MY house, you play by MY rules? He broke the rules and now he has to sit in the corner, if he decides to continue breaking the rules, then he can't play there anymore. That's how it should...

I made a good guess http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5hMLws5P18rl_dNmyK2jeJQGzgTIgD9B5T5I81 Woman killed by garage door made fake 9-1-1 call (AP) – 15 hours ago BOISE, Idaho — An Idaho woman who died after being pinned under a garage door at the paramedic building where...

I don't see a problem with billing a deceased Pt (ins, or family). I don't think it's any different than a stay in intensive care prior to death, just because you didn't live doesn't mean money and time wasn't spent on your care.

I wonder if the call the first responders left on was called in by her?

Anyone else think that maybe there's just too many people on this little planet and that some of us have to be weeded out? I mean we can't cure everybody of everything. I won't be getting the flu shot this year, and I never have. I WILL however keep following standard precautions for all Pts and...

Isn't the most pressing issue the fact that you are only 20 and most companies won't let you drive until 21? I don't see what your "record" has to do with anything at this point. I know plenty of people who are non-drivers because of their record or age. They had no problem getting hired around...

13hr basic 15hr intermediate.

Our private service here and all the others I know of around here won't hire drivers under 21. That being said, we have EMT's who are 19. They just don't drive. Our service and others in the area will hire "Non-Driver" EMTs. They make $.75 less per hour than a EMT Driver. That's $13.00 instead...

I'm all for em! I like 'em in a stew, on the grill, sliced on a hamburger, in soup, hell I like 'em raw! My favorites are the red union and the Vidalia union, they sure can grow good unions down in Georgia! I don't like the wild unions though, they make my lawn smell bad in the spring.
