Started at 18, Been in it now for 19 years. (Dang, that is getting up there in years)
58. Received my EMT-B just a few months ago. Will have ACLS, PALS, and PHTLS in a few months. Then onward and upward.
Some think age is a barrier. Its all in their heads.
Oh yeah?! Well I got my EMT-B in utero and my paramedic as soon as I could support my own head.
