Hey guys & gals! I looked, and couldn't find any other threads on this.
Would love to hear any ideas or suggestions you may have!
My company has a Christmas party for us each year, and we're very appreciative of it and of the opportunity to come together and spend time with each other but it's really... boring. There are always a lot of politicians, and the only thing we do is hear an "atta boy" from our director, get our food, and leave. It's super draining to the morale of the company. So last year my partner had the great idea to come up with some funny little awards we gave out during dinner. It worked, and got several laughs!
Everyone wants us to do it again, and we'd like to add some more awards. Here are the ones we have so far:
"Dr. Feel Good" -- to the medic that has given out the most narcs during the year.
"Baby Daddy/Momma" -- someone that has delivered a baby.
"Buzzkill" -- the most OD's ran (obviously Narcan is not given on every overdose, and each call is different but the name fit!)
"The Sympathy Puker" -- the most use of Zofran.
"Sharpest Truck" -- We're required to wash our truck at the beginning of our shifts, but there are some that are out taking a toothbrush to their hubcaps and we like to honor their OCD/dedication!
"Birds Eye View" -- Most flights in the year.
"Rescue Randy" -- Most tools on their belt/in their bag.
--- This next one sounds a little morbid, but we mean no disrespect from it. We want to do a "Blackest Cloud" award. With the EPCR program we use our supervisors can go through and search specific things- call types, transport destination, drugs used etc. It would be really tedious to go through and search the "worst" calls for each person then try to narrow it down. So my partner suggested we just use the most cardiac arrests ran for the year. So the "blackest cloud/Heart stopper" award.
Then we have two or three that are more specific to our company so I won't bore you with those.
We'd like to have a few more, though. Any ideas anyone?
Or any fun activities/games that you do at your departments Christmas party?
Thank you all!
