All we have used so far is the Brady Paramedic text.... which I find not to be all that in-depth. I spend a lot of time online researching and filling in the voids of the textbook. The Mosby book is a little better I think.

Paramedichopeful.... were still waiting to hear what all you have learned in class so far.... you been in class for a few weeks and all we still hear about is fancy ambulances and taking pictures of the woo woos. I would figure by now you would be at a point that you would be starting to...

I don't know why you keep saying this. All you really need to take a patient to definitive care is a motorized vehicle with four wheels.. that would do the job of getting them there but is far from adequate. A degree in my opinion makes future learning and adapting more intuitive and serves...

If your gonna do this job I think the goal should always be to "master"... even if the goal is unobtainable in this field, it is the only goal to be shooting for. There are prob a lot of great Paramedics that cities don't ever get to consider because they don't (or won't) want to be a...

Sasha.. we dont always agree, but I think your heart was definitely in the right place and think you did not do anything worth getting disciplined for. As I'm sure you dont make it an everyday occurrence.

Oh, okay Vent, all the information I post is wrong? Is that what your saying? Please, search my posts and point out my erroneous information and advice I have provided. If it is not correct or I am not sure if it is correct, Im not gonna post it. I stand-by and can back up everything I have...

I do think some laws are "crap" and personally dont care what you think of my advice. I think your advice is "crap" most of the time and think you like to micro analyze and micro manage based on your own high and almighty education, status, and experience. Least I consider all views and can be...

While you make some good points... I guess it all depends on who the manager is doing the hiring. Personally, if I were the manager and a homeless person came to me for a job and appeared to genuinely be interested in working, I would prob pick them because they are obviously in great need of...
