Nremt canidate in wv
Everyone,
I recently finished my WV State EMT class and passed the class and practicals with out any problems.
We unfortunatley, had to wait three weeks until the final paperwork was in to test.
Once I tested I thought I did well and my test ended between 70-80...
Everyone,
It has been a while sicne I posted on here.
I took my NREMT test in June and unfortunatley failed. I thought that I did pretty well but apparently I did not. We also had to wait three weeks after class to be even able to test which I think hurt me because I started a brand...
Well for me it was a few different things.
I always watched Rescue 911 and was also a boy scout in fact I am an Eagle Scout.
I got my lifeguard certification and did that for many years while I was in H.S. and college.
I started to dispatch at our local ambulance service and loved it...
Everyone,
I have not posted for a while but have enjoyed reading other posts. I just wanted to give you an update on my WV EMT-B class and how it was going. So far I have really liked it. We have done mostly lecture which is important but can get old after a while. I am ready to do some...
What you are talking about is known as a pairing. Things like smoking/dipping after meal, before bed, when waking up, working out, cutting grass etc are pairing because they are paired with the action. You do the action and you want a dip and have a while those two become connected. Pairings...
Codes
My squad has a few different codes and signals.
We have a code for police in a non-emergency situation and we check up on our crews at night on strange calls and if they respond a certain way we send them assitance.
Hey,
I am from WV I know that we have an office for EMS and there website is pretty good.
I am currently reviewing how to obtain one myself but I know there are classes involved which you have taken and a practical test and a written test. I believe when I take my class in the...
EMS Pants
I guess my question is where is the best and cheapest place to get EMS pants. I have seen the basic cargo pants but when I look for EMS pants them seem to jump up in place.
Got any companies or suggestions?
Thanks!
Everyone,
My squad colors are green and white. We have green t-shirts, sweat shirts, hoodies, polo shirts, long sleeved t-shirts etc. with our logo on the pocket in white.
Most wear boots and blue or black cargo or EMS pants.
Tri-State Area
Everyone,
I live in an area of WV that is only minutes from the Ohio and PA line so we have responded to those states and take transports through those states all the time.
The emergency calls though are initiated by another agency that asks for assistance. Mutual aid...
WV Evoc
Here in WV we have to take a two day Emergency Vehicle Opeartions Class (EVOC) and have to pass both a written test and a practical (driving exam) as far as what is on it and is contained in the class I am not sure.
I have to take it hopefully in the spring. I have heard good...
Awesome
The pictures bring a smile to my face and a warmth to my heart. I can remember when I was younger getting all dressed up for halloween and going to school and tick or treating. Some days I miss those times of not a whole lot of worries.
I am sure you all will have fun.
Private Company
Hey,
I am affiliated with a private company that runs all over the city and mutual aid calls in the tri-state area. We also do a lot of transports.
At my squad once you are hired you have to be the 3rd on so many transports and then the 3rd on so many e-calls and then...
It really depends on the situation. Like with dogs I have to actually pet them or be around them for an extended period of time. With cats if I stay for an extended period of time I usually get watery eyes and start sneezing.
I take an albuteral inhaler when I need it and singular at night...
