Roy Desoto and John Gage almost had to perform one. :unsure:

Its miserable work. But a job is a job. If you have any questions pm me

"my nose itches" "I don't know why I'm tied up like a crazy person, I'm not crazy I swear"

And medic417- you hit the nail on the head. Unfortunately that is par for the course in my area. Lots of money, don't have to worry about ambulance bills

I should have been clearer. The fall had occurred days prior, and the family had already driven the pt to their doctors appt. the doctor even advised them to go to the er. Had they followed common sense amd gone earlier the pt could have avoided further distress by having to spend all night in...

0200: 80-something post fall x2 days c/o hip pain. Pt was at the doctor 10 hours prior. 2 cars in the driveway, 4 competent family members. Preferred hospital that was an extra 30 minutes away. :rolleyes:

There are many other companies to want to work for, Shoreline shouldn't be one of them

I was talking to a nurse the other day and she was telling me about a pt that came in with an IV in their forehead. lol

Interviewed for a reserve firefighter spot one time: Walked in to see 4 captains and one chief staring at me. Greeted them, sat down, so far so good. Then proceeded to get grilled by the chief harder than I've ever been grilled before. Borderline verbal abuse haha. I was beginning to crap my...

Well the interview could have gone better IMO but we shall see. Was asked what the chain of command meant to me, in my own words, and I blanked but I think I pulled it together. I always get so nervous in these damn things.

Good job. Let us know how it goes. I'd read this thread and take it with a grain of salt, most companies aren't prefect, and even though as a whole they can be great companies, if people wanted to say bad things there wouldn't exactly be a shortage of ammo. With this job you get out of it what...

I know this is an old thread but I figured I'd save some bandwidth. I have an interview with Doctor's on Tuesday. I didn't think to ask if there was a skills portion as part of the interview or not, does anyone know? I feel kind of rusty running transfers for the past few months and would like...

Pacific

Well I don't remember having a choice for a city, but Pacific is strictly OC. They are based out of Lake Forest. Bowers is their sister company that runs in LA. Rural Metro is the parent company. I love working here and they are only growing so I'm sure you'll have strong chance. Best of luck to...

Well I should update: I got the job and so far I like working here. Great company, and great people. I feel I made the right decision :D

I didn't read the whole thread, but I've never heard of the lights thing. People in EMS put lights on your personal vehicles too? Why?

I'll concur with agonal respirations for 1000, alex.

Same here, applied in March

alright i have one more question, what should I ask in the interview on thursday? I want to make sure I get a good feel for the company. Would it be ok to bring up the fact that I have heard rumors that they are being bought out? Is there even a nice way to ask that?

Thanks Mufasa. It says I don't have enough posts to reply to PM's but just to answer your question, I plan on going to medic school and then fire academy and becoming a medic on a fire dept. In OC would you say patient contact on 911 rigs is reduced since you have the fire medic working the...
