    Cardiac Arrest Question?

    You're asking for feedback, and that's a good thing. As everyone has already said, you did just fine. Take this experience and learn from it, and next time you'll be even better. This patient probably had a poor prognosis anyway, even with immediate ALS. People die, that's part of life. It's not...

    Impulse vs. American Professional

    AMR, CARE, and Bowers will all hire new EMTs without experience. So will Hall. So that's no excuse. Set your standards higher. Just because you're new doesn't mean you have to work a ****ty job. I wish I would have known that when I started.

    Paramedic Program Employer Contracts

    There's a neighboring service that pays for school, pays you your hourly wage to be in school/clinicals/internship, and requires a 3 year commitment. If you fail out they'll get you back into the program. If you leave or don't finish your commitment, you pay back a prorated amount.
