both sides have valid arguments, but I tend to be of the mind of "who cares"...if I fall out in full arrest I would much rather look up and see me than some of the medics I know, likewise I have told numerous EMT's that if they ever touch me, then they will need an RA and I will need PD...

The only problem with that from my superficial knowledge of the site is that are always those who think that ALL non-medic personnel don't know jack and freely say so...many people prolly don't want the headache...

If you are that worried about your reference, you may want to be up front with your interviewer and explain the situation. I would check "no" under the contact current employer box on the app and go from there. That being said, you may find it difficult to get onto a 911 service because of...

MOST privates...and Medicare would be nice, most of the patients utilizing EMS have none, or medicaid...which pays roughly $17.50 (for BLS in LA County - non emergency):blush:

I'm curious too...forum searches don't turn up too much...

where you are going to encounter a lot of resistance is in the younger crowd that has a desire to help people, but may not be down for years of schooling to do so. I am of the mentality that the US really needs to get its act together here and decide what level of care they want. As it...

LMFAO...I just read that part...*kicks the dirt shyly:blush:, I just wanna be loved...is that so much to ask? :P

No he isn't. He was unable to give an exact time. I am under the impression that she regained conciousness and had a very short period of confusion lasting only seconds which would not be considered posttictal...

Holy h*ll!!! So, this guy really was a complete and total loser...Mr. and Mrs. Brown: beleive it or not, I AM NOT THE GUY!!! A little about me...started off studying paramedicine when I was like 7 (homeschooled and dad is Houston FF/P/HAZMAT/Critical Incident Counselor/AARF/EIEIO) loved it...

A&P for sure, biochem, physics, OEGANIC CHEMISTRY...why I screamed that is beyond me. Lol sent from my mobile command center. or phone. whatever.

the only way that would be kosher (and even then, BS) is if the patient were paying privately. Having worked in H-town I can say that the fraud and corruption is insane. We're talking INSANE. and as was stated before, document document document. It may cost you your job (at a crappy service...

:excl: Just to clarify...apparently there was some joker on here who was faking levels of certs and generally causing pain and mayhem. Despite the similar names, I am not MedicRob and have no idea who the cat is. Hopefully you guys and gals can learn to hate, er, love...yeah, love me for who...

OPA That Sh*t! Upon arriving on scene and finding the "congested" patient A&Ox4 but breathing at 38 times a minute, Unit 4 notifies dispatch of the possible delay and reroute. Dispatch responds with: "If the patient hits 40 bpm, drop an OPA and start bagging." Unit 4: "the patient is...
