Unless your school set this up, I wouldn't wear anything with your school's name on it.

Well did my 12 hours with AMR Friday and 10 in the ER Monday and wow! AMR was awesome medic let me do lots of hands on sadly we only had about 6 calls but 4 of them were Medical and he let me help with vitals SAMPLE History and what not. lung sounds on our SOB which really helped! Everything helped and I learned so much from him! Can't wait to work!

Then Monday was wow. The usual ER stuff sick people, homeless, minor MVA's. Then I got one of those lose sleep over, When a female miscarried and the DR showed me the Fetus before it went to the Path lab. It was really hard because my wife is 35 weeks Preg I did not sleep Monday or last night. I know why he did it. He explained how stuff like this happens and you will run into it and it will mess you up but it is always good to get exposed to it early. IDK if that is true but I could have said no but IDK something in me said F-IT I am going to see it one day. But was not really prepared for the psych aftermath. Especially because I can't really talk to my wife about it so...



Anyway learned alot on the two days lots of patient contact!
