Just passed and I got a job lined up for a private ambulance company. What are some good pointers for my first day
I start orientation for my first EMS job Feb 3. Forget that guy.
Again, yes, listen more. Listen, listen, listen. But NEVER, EVER, EVER TALK LESS!!! If you have a question, ask it. NEVER, EVER fail to ask a question or state where you thought one thing and your paramedic partner did another, why did that happen? If you are a basic and your paramedic partner EVER says, you ask too many questions, then it's time for you to find a better partner.
I start my first EMt-B job in a week. I'm going to tell my paramedic two things: A) I want you to tell me and teach me what you want me to do to make OUR job as close to 100% effective as possible, and B) I want you to teach me how to do your job in our off time so that I can become as good or better than you, once I go to school and learn the science behind it.
There is no such thing as a stupid question. There are, however, entirely too many people who are too "cool" and too stupid to ask the same question.
