Hi guys. I'm Ni, I come from a Law Enforcement Background, and Volunteer Fire Service. Got into EMS because I felt like I could help people more then sending them to Jail or Keeping them their. So I have gotten all my ducks in a row so to speak. Now working in EMS on a BLS 4 days a week...

The Joy of working with a service that keeps a complete stock of Tegaderms!!!!!

Pretty sure after something like that I would be BEGGING for a mercy killing.

Actual Guns firing Actual Bullets Should be restricted to Military Medics. Fully agreed. But some consideration should go for other types of medics. Wilderness Medics for example. Should they not carry anything when responding on a mountain trail to get to a hiker with a femur fracture and...

I really dont think that EMTs and Medics should be running around with Guns unless theres a darn good reason for it. For Example, The Guy in Canada whtat runs alot of Rural Wilderness calls with Wild Life, but with that It should be a tranq gun not a actual gun. I agree with the Idea of...

Well, seeing how every state is different you would have to check what that particular state does. Tennessee prolly the most lax that Ive heard of. (where i live and about to take NR) State Exam is your NR Practical. You pass the NR Practical you've past the state Exam. But the...
