Great advice everyone! Thank you! I am getting a lot better.

Thanks guys, I just need to get my head straight. I got 4 more weeks to before the end of my FTO time, so I gotta get myself under control.

Hey guys, I am a newbie to ems, and in my first EMT job. I'm in my FTO process (third day) and we almost exclusively handle 911 calls. I have got a bit of a problem, I keep 'spinning' on scene. When I first started, I would go blank with the most non-emergent of calls, but I am starting to get...

I can help with questions as well. (I'm a newbie though.)

Welcome! I grew up in San Jose. I know it well. Is your profile pic from near Los Gatos? (The mountains are always brown on the east.) If you have any questions, shoot and i'll see what i can do! Including stuff with San Jose Fire ect,ect,ect.

Well, where are you going in Socal? We can take a look at some options when we find out what part of socal you are going to be at.

Non mainstream media? It depends on who you look at..... Some make it look like Fallujah, some make it look like dinner at Grandmas house. I am also interested to see how the Ferguson EMS system is handling this.

Very interesting. Good to know, thanks guys.

IFT to Bako? What for? Man, I really need to figure out why some are transferred from and some to Bako. I just moved to Bakersfield (today, actually) for a company in Kern, and it seems strange that IFTs would go TO Bako, as I see most go OUT.

How does Hall Ambulance in Bakersfield treat tobacco? Thanks!

Good luck! Tell us how it goes!

%100 correct.

I am twenty right now, and there is no way in hell I will ever have less than what the 'Platinum' ACA plans are. If I ever get in a bad accident, or get cancer or any other serious ailment of the body, then I know that both myself, as well as my parents will not go bankrupt paying for it. That...

Hello guys, looking to the future, I am looking for a service that is not fire, but also very high quality. I have heard good things about both American Ambulance and Hall. My ride along with American had some... Interesting calls. Does anyone know the culture of Hall and/or American? I am...

Liberal Arts. Begin to try and understand man. After all, most of EMS is psychological help. Not in the sense of mental illness, but in terms of compassion. The whole person is the priority.

Went down for me. Instead of $2000 a month for my parents and I, its now $700 for better benefits. That's the blue shield platinum ppo. Plus, getting the insurance myself was cheaper than going through employer, for me.
