    EMT-B Pay

    $10.75 is the highest in my area for a Basic and that's AFTER a couple raises. Consider yourself blessed if you can get $12 starting.

    Long Transports

    The longest x-port that I was ever part of was an ALS run from Grand Strand Regional Medical Center of Myrtle Beach, SC to Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania. I forgot the Hospital name that we took him to in Penn, but it was 17 hours there and 20 back. I loved the over-time that week.

    What kind of boots do you wear?

    Thoroughgood 8in size zip composite toe. I'll never buy another pair of these again, their horribly uncomfortable and looks like a frankenstein boot. I'm looking at a pair of "S.W.A.T" boots from a local EMS dealer. It's said that they feel like a pair of New Balance shoes, so I'm going to...

    How to stop Gagging

    Carry a small bottle of sanitizer in your cargo pocket. When you come up on a "bad" scene, take the bottle out and wipe a little bit of the sanitizer on your upper lip under your nose and your set. Works very well with B.O. also.
