Very nice.

My schedule lately just hasn't allowed me to get out shooting in a little while. Need to take the toys out and get rid of some stress. :)

Anyone doing IDPA or USPSA here? I have a decent outdoor range that holds weekly events, just haven't been able to make an event in the past 6 months or so.

Oooooh, I assume you've shot one? 9mm or .40? I like the looks of it (in 9) but I haven't been able to find a shop near me that carries it, so I can't put my booger hooks on it to see how it feels :sad:
 
I like them a little bit older and bigger.;)

Random question:

Why do some medications come in glass ampules? They are so much more of a pain to use than the multidose vials. Is it just to ensure that all the medication is used at once or wasted?

Cheaper than vials because they're easier to produce.
 
I have my first interview for a RN position tomorrow. Guess I have to shave off my gnarly No shave November beard :sad:

I hate you!

Its been a long time dream of mine to own a 1911 .45.

Unfortunately in NY, attaining the permit is not worth it. Its $300 and a 6 month waiting period for approval and a whole bunch of hoop jumping. (and it expires every 3 years)

Get a XDm .45 - Similar grip angle and feel with a much larger ammo capacity

Bite your tongue sir. I'm no communist. I want a 1911. Real american gun.
 
We all love guns ... But let's get back OFF topic, eh?

(I said that in a Canadian accent.)
 
I cant stand people who feel the need to advertise to the world on facebook every time they get ROSC on a patient.

As far as im concerned unless that patient can post a facebook status for themselves it doens't count for anything.
 
And that FB status would read something like, "brrrrrrr. It's freezing in here! Feels like I have ice water in my veins..."
 
Ugh just informed AMR is cutting us to 36 hrs/week... and my other job is doing steep cut backs too. Great.. I need the hell out of here.
 
Just made the final payment on my truck $4,250. Thank you FEMA.
 
I'm sore in places I didn't know you could before...damn you TEMS PAT!

With that said, probably the most fun I've had in a long time! Interview went well today, final interview tomorrow. Thank goodness for being posted in the slow hard post tonight, I'm pulling for a perfect game.

Most medicines that come in vials are for multiple uses (for example insulin) and those that come in ampoules (like ambulance drugs) are single use.

What drugs do you have ampules for on the ambulance?

An ampule (ampoule) is a type of vial that is designed to protect the contents from exposure. As such, it is hermetically sealed and normally has inert gas inside. The top needs to be cracked off.

There are most definitely single dose vials...

Only one we still have in ampule is Epi 1:1000.

Well this was an easy OT shift. And our EMTB student did great with a pediatric trauma call earlier. Didnt hesitate to do an assessment and ask what she could do.
