Once upon a time, I was an aid on an ALS unit. Then I was in the Army, an EMT-B, IV certified. Then I got married, had a baby, got out of the military. I let all of my training go, and embraced being a wife and mother. And I missed the work I did.
Seven years ago, I took a 40 hour course and became a Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician. I volunteer whenever I can, teaching parents and caregivers how to properly restrain children in vehicles. I'm "that car seat person" at play groups, mom groups, and homeschool groups. And then slowly I realized, I needed more.
It's time to start following the pathway to my passion, and my calling. I have a houseful of kids, and a husband that's a systems administrator. I'll have to be creative, and it's going to be slow going. I'm getting my ducks in a row, with the goal of (re)taking the EMT-B in January. After that I'll take classes - A&P, Bio - whatever I can get my hands on that fits into my schedule and would help with EMT-P. Knowledge is power, right?
