I had a dream last night that I passed my NREMT test.

One more night of class left. I will get tested on assessments. Practical skills portion I have passed and written test material as well.

I am starting to get a little nervous about National Registry. 3 weeks away!

I found the national registry exam less stressful than the practical exams.

Just relax, don't over-think the questions, and take some of the practice tests listed in the NREMT section.

I love that two weeks in a row my first call of my internship "Monday" has been an arrest that I pronounced in the field.

Oof. That's rough stuff. Did you find that it got any easier the second time?
 
I love Diltiazem.

Well, I love giving it to patients that need it.
 
I had one of the city cops tell me tonight: "I hope someone resists tonight, so I can tell them 'I wouldn't do that, otherwise I'm gonna have to get Doogie Howser down here, and he's got some big words.'"

Easier no. Smoother yes. I know how to go about it now, if that makes any sense. It's never going to be easy telling family there's nothing I can do for their loved one.

Me being younger doesn't make it any easier either. That takes a lot of work to get patients and family to trust me.

Bahahahahaha

Your cops sound funnier than ours.
 
I love practicing using the Sager on the intermediate on my internship shift :ph34r:

Took it like a champ and I somehow still remember how to use the Sager splint haha
 
A day of jet skiing with a barbecue at my coworkers lakeside house...it's gonna be a good day
 
Truck has been in the shop since Wednesday. Shop is closed tomorrow. So Monday will make 5 days of work on it. I hope it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg.

Beats a Hare any day – except you have to tell the pt to "adjust."
 
Because we are leaving on our cruise in 56 hours, I fell and scraped my knee today.

Yippee! First adults only week in a decade and I'm going to be the one with the bandaid on my knee.

Or worse, adjust for them. Somehow, making sure a guy's balls are comfortable crosses the discomfort line for me.

As in, I am the uncomfortable one.
