When I first started working BLS we'd post/stage in a community we served, and act as first-response units, along with doing all the BLS transports. We'd have a 15-20 minute drive from the post to our main hospital, but it wasn't long, and I didn't think the hospitals minded.
Now management has completely pulled us out of the cities, and we stage at the hospitals and only do dialysis / BLS transfers. I must admit, even after only working a couple of shifts, it's getting old, real old. I liked the one or possibly two emergency calls we'd respond to, they really broke up the shift.
Does anyone else work BLS transports only? How do you get through it?
I'm evaluating my position in EMS, and am not quite sure where it's going to go from here
