AWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEE!!! So cute!! Good job dude!! :D

Honestly, to me, (having no EMT experience other than a couple ride-alongs) it sounds like your FTO is a bit of a rectal sphincter. Its your first couple days for heaven's sake. Seems like he doesn't remember what it was like to be low man on the totem pole. But that's just my opinion.

:o :blink:Holy mother of pearl!! :blink: Who would willingly do that to themselves? That's frightening!! (looked up pics on Google Images) O_o :blink:

SamShel~ I have my NREMT and my California State EMT-Basic Certs. I'd say I'm fairly proficient in splinting and BLS procedures. I still need to study up on the 12-lead EKG, but I'm good on 4 and 5 leads. I'm not sure what "DAB" is, and my internet search didn't turn up much by way of...

I have a question that's similar to the OP's, and rather than start a new thread, I thought I'd just post it here. I was on Career Builder and there's an advert for an ER Tech job in my general vicinity. The ad states: My question is, does anyone know if my NREMT and state cert qualify me...

I send you dancing rodents from the jungles of Africa. CONGA-RATS!! [/lame joke]

I looked and couldn't find a thread that related to this, so I'm starting a new one. My Medical Examiner's green card (I'm in CA, obvs.) will expire on Sept 24. My problem is that I have been very sick this past month. In Aug, I went into acute renal failure and spent five days in ICU. For...

No experience, but it sounds like a pretty cool idea. I get cluster headaches/migraines every so often (thankfully, not very often!) and that sounds like an awesome way to help make them go away! I'd be interested in follow-up studies.

LMAO! Good idea, random other boater!!

Dude! That's awesome!! (Unless you happen to be standing in the 'drop zone.' Then it would be the opposite of awesome! :blink: )

I have a question maybe one of y'all can answer. I have absolutely ZERO (paid) work experience. I have never been employed anywhere, by any company. Not even flipping burgers or bagging groceries. What I do have is a ten year history of volunteering at a Respite Care Nursery that houses...

I can remember being a little kid (maybe 4 or 5) and having to have minor surgery, I think to have ear tubes put in. I distinctly remember lying on the operating table, and the anesthesiologist putting the mask over my face. I complained that it smelled funny, so he told me to "blow the smelly...

I work with kids, and I call them all kinds of "pet" names. Boys: Lil man, buddy, squirt (squirt-and-a-half if they're between 6 and 10), baby boy, dude Girls: lil miss, lil lady, baby girl, squirtette, dudette Both: Sugar, Sweetie, Love, Honey, Shug, Sweetheart, Sweetie-pie, Babe, Baby, Love...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think TheLocalMedic meant that there could be residual food/juices on the patient's finger that would mess with the bgl reading.

:beerchug: Happens.

Ya know, exodus, you could've just said I wasn't the person you wanted to talk to. I would've left you alone.

OI being Osteogenesis Imperfecta? (knew that one w/o having to look it up. Thanks Discovery Channel!! :cool: LoL)

I used to ride a Piaggio (motorscooter) till I put it into the back of a Chevy. I had three-quarter helmet, off-road knee/shin and elbow/forearm guards and denim trousers with cowboy-style boots. I hit the car and, according to what I overheard witnesses saying, "flew like Superman" over the...
