Interview and a lot of paperwork + 90 days probationary period.

ECG made simple = Is it regular? Are there P waves? If so, How many & are they regular? Has worked for most everything I've needed as far as sitting as a telemetry tech.

Well.... my partner is brave and uses the gurney *shudders* but I've used the bench seat. The blue paper sheets make good shades on the back windows. I just cant stand the awful wool airplane lankes we use... though its probably better than the mylar emergency blankets

not to go off thread here, but whats with the no facial hair policies in place? I did an N95 Respitator test at the hospital with a goatee and I passed no problem.... so if it was neatly upkept in EMS, why the problem?

Seems like anti imflamatories would be a better route?

Arm length SAM Splint with tape Perhaps??

Well, our protocols here say use a Ped C-spine board. Ked board would work as cited here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kendrick_Extrication_Device If it were me, I'd attempt to use a neck roll to improvise a C collar and then i'd C spine on a standard adult board while using towels under...

how do you use chat on the phone? I have an Iphone?

were you running 3 man crew?

they don't call it a vocation for nothing ^_^

Thats pretty bad dude, do they not get out much?

Rescue 911.... gotta love Shatner

We need an AED with a Barry White voice telling you what you need to do... that'd be epic and I'd totally buy one if it was ever made
