    Walk in, sit down, start to set up the daily paperwork... ..and promptly listen to the "big red button" being pressed for a reported US military vehicle overturned in extreme BFE of the country with 5 serious, and 1 entrapped/ not breathing.. Both helicopters, half my ground critical care...

    I have a Qatar wallet and a vacation wallet. The Qatar one (also the US one) is more narrow for US and local bills, and has my day to day cards here. The travel one fits those stupid twice-as-big bills and carries more cards. In the US I had "work" and "not work" wallets. One with my cards...

    Sadly, with the food in general here that IS a highpoint. ...and even with all the walking and hiking why I gained a stone. A stone sounds so much better than other measures... :)

    I had fun. The weather was nicer than expected. Cold, windy, rainy, but not as bad as it normally is. So, I'm truly thankful for global warming and look forward to the oceans rising and flooding england and the bloody British. :) Amusingly, I'm stubborn (shocker) and when I was on Skye was...

    Wow, only 25 "directionless" pages. My work password was scrambled while I was away even though I has just reset it. I was hoping I was fired and didn't need to go back, but no such luck. Back in the salt mines.

    Xopenex Essay

    Wasn't in the forumarly for anywhere I ever ran. Occasionally would get orders (and a supply) for a pediatric IFT going to a children's hospital, but that was the exception. Albuterol, Ipratropium, Duo-Neb, Brethine, ... going back a few years Aminophylline,...

    Can EMTs administer medications while not on shift?

    It's been a 3-5 years now, but two PA medics were de-certed permanently for practicing without a license off duty. One from Lancaster, and one from Schuylkill County. I read of another from Maryland, career medic/ff in the city who ended up doing ALS skills riding along on a county unit but...

    Vomiting, abdominal pain, significant bradycardia

    I almost overlooked that since we primarily use it for modest trauma, i.e.: fractures, but IV paracetamol here would be a viable option if he's at risk of puking the pills up.

    Austere EMS Jobs?

    Without significantly more experience in the tactical/ military/ police (SWAT) environment, most of the austere/ war-torn environments won't touch you. The large contract companies (think Blackwater, Triple Canopy, Olive Group, etc..) want more solid tactical experience before they unleash you...

    HIPAA VIOLATION

    I'm going to go with Faux-Pas based upon the summary. Kind of like Hooters, tacky and unrefined, distinctly unprofessional but not patently illegal (except in some very conservative countries), if there was a lack of identifying information (blurred out.)

    Vomiting, abdominal pain, significant bradycardia

    ((blinks)) Given the current symptoms, release to Alpha (two EMT-Is, more or less) truck with instructions to monitor and transport non-emergent to RIAMS (medical, via ambulance triage). Lethargic, but puking his guts out for hours, probably get a sending dose of Zofran 4mg. Due to the...

    Working in Qatar

    Possibly, although I'm not sure how they handle overseas vs local recruiting. I have no idea at all... I know a few people were locally hired, College of North Atlantic graduates and a qualified spouse or two but I don't know how that works.

    How old were you when you moved out?

    17 1/2, on Friday June 17, 1988. Two days after graduating high school, I left for Fort LostInTheWoods, Misery. Your mileage may vary. :)

    Working in Qatar

    It is my understanding that five CCP positions have been un-frozen after the budget crunch/crisis from back in Januaryish. Two people I know got emails that they were restarting the process to bring people here 4Q16/1Q17, from way back in June and some followup through today. However, there...
