    Post the # your test stopped at, and if you Passed/Failed

    88 and we'll see. I'm 90% certain I passed, but I'm starting to doubt myself ^_^

    Gotcha. So it isn't like it is a requirement for some hirings, or their continuing ed's don't count towards our continuing ed hours? Bummer!

    Best Moulage kit

    Could you team up with a school theater group or something? Or perhaps a production company has some left overs? An art center here has a yearly rummage sale of old costumes and the like.

    New ACLS standards; continue CPR even as shock?

    Seems like too big of a legal risk for the manufacturers and ambulance companies to comply, even if it were to surface that defibrillators only shock the intended person. That one time in that one place, somehow it will shock someone else, and hell will be raised ^_^

    tips tricks for getting pulse in the field

    I remember back in my ride time, my first trauma. It was an old frail lady who had fallen and been in the cellar for awhile. After we boarded her and put her in the truck, my preceptor, a long time veteran, stopped everything and had me get vitals. Between the hypothermia and Parkinson's, I...

    Test Prep Sites

    TTT. Instead of starting a new thread I thought I would just bump this one. What did you go with and how did you do? Anyone else recommend a site? I finished the class almost a year ago and just finished the clinicals, ride time, and practical test. I'm starting to sweat bullets realizing all...

    EMT-B jobs?

    Stethoscope - The Mega Thread

    Awww man! Nope, no serial number or anyway to identify it! I didn't consider a fraud since it appears pretty well built and works well. If so they really took their time on it.

    Stethoscope - The Mega Thread

    :blush: Can anyone ID the stethoscope I have? They are both Littmanns. The one on the left is a Select. The one on the right is only marked "Littmann 3M Made in the USA". It looks very very similar to the select except it is made from metal instead of plastic. I've spent hours looking for...

    Do you sport a favorite pen?

    I know it seems trivial, but has anyone found a favorite pen? I really enjoy roller balls but our run sheets eat them alive. Usually my pen survives the front of one form, and sometimes my pen can make it through the front of the other form. However, the back of the first run form kills my pen...
