I start my first medic job on monday, and I'm very nervous. Its a job for a private indian hospital that is a part of a large tribal nation. The job is mostly interfacility, but do 911 ALS back up for the reservation (EmtI 85 is highest level that they have). I am to be one of two paramedics, with a dozen or so emts. I am confident in my skills. My biggest nerves come from working with EMTs who have more experience than I've been alive; and I now have to tell them what to do. What advice does anyone have for a young medic working with experienced emts? I want to be able to work as a medic without coming off as arrogant or a know it all. It doesn't help that I look like I'm maybe 16.
