40 yo male tried to hang himself. Put the rope around his neck and step off the ladder. Rope broke and he landed on his back and cracked the back of his head. He then got up and used a heavy duty electrical cord, this time the cord held, but his wife found him dangling fron the rafters and...

I agree with most of what you say. My distrust is due to being around Zolls. They have a horrible NIBP. I hear the X series is a major improvement and looking forward to the switch. I do find the LP 15 to at least give a believable B/P. One other draw back to the NIBP is the death grip...

I have an interview on Monday for a medic job, with a rural hospital based service. It's been over 25 years since I have interviewd for a job. It should be intresting. The main reason that I am even considering it, is because the area is now home.

Placed pt. on a different monitor got the same message. Zoll will not print a 12 lead without all leads connected.

Tried to do a 12 lead on a pt. using an E series Zoll. Applied all the electrodes and wires, pushed the acquire button and got the message V-1 not connected. Pushed on the electrode nothing. Replaced electrodes nothing. Changed wires nothing. Happened to have another monitor on scene...

No, I do not work for HCMC. I work for a couple of the other Metro West services. I have had friends at HCMC, but the last of them just retired. I was just thinking that if you are going to be in the area and like the area. You might want to look at some of the other services in the Metro...

I hope you do well. They are having a lot of retirements in the last couple of years. Are you doing it in person or online?

Come and enjoy Minnesota. The cold is only 10 months a year.;) But really the weather extremes is one of the things I enjoy.

Few months ago Allina started giving a sign on bonus. Now at my full time job, instead of a bonus they raised the hourly wage to equal or surpass the $5,000 bonus. Law of supply and demand works.

Still using paper. This fall we are suppose to move to EPCRs. But they have been saying that for the last 5+ years.

Well that's wonderful news. My service just ordered it to be used with IPads. I was not too impressed with it when we had a chance to play with it. I use Image Trend at my other job with the Toughbook. That system works great.

Two week horse vacation is over. Had a great time in Texas. Nice place to visit, but no desire to live there.

Primary job, they do nothing. They will acknowledge the Fire and police department that are our first responders. Not sure why they refuse to acknowledge it for us. I would be happy with an email saying Happy EMS Week. Other than that we are treated well. Part time job, they roll out the...

Getting ready for a road trip to Texas with the horse. Had a great time last year, hoping for a repeat this year.:)

I wonder how many heads rolled on that failure?

I think the biggest reason for not dealing with a stronger hand with North Korea is South Korea. South Korea especially Seoul, would be devastated by North Korea's artillery

Put the house up for sale. Five days later accepted an offer. But it's not over in my mind until I have a check in my hand.
