I'm currently still in Fire; our EMS can be a bit busier.

I am the best/worst white cloud ever. We ran three calls in 36 hours. One was a cancel too. I'm about done with my trainee time and in 72 hours I have run a total of seven calls. They were all sick patients but still it's tough to learn with that volume. We're normally busier I'm told (1 ambulance covering about 15k people and one covering about 5k at a substation so the numbers are there to be somewhat steady.

There are 4 glucometers in my ambulance today. I guess we are expecting a sugary day today.

My husband has a PT test this weekend, and height and weight taping.
I'm trying to talk him into getting a colonic hydrotherapy flush, but he's refusing. Big baby.

My EMT just learned the very valuable lesson of why we don't like to kneel on other peoples' beds. :rofl:
And last week she learned why I have the rule "We don't take off a homeless person's shoes. Ever." Guy had sore feet and she thought we ought to check to make sure, so I let her... the memory of her retching and running away still brings a smile to my face.
Ah, it can be fun to have a newbie partner sometimes...

When a doctor says you said all the right things and then some in your report, and is even more impressed when you say you have physician aspirations....that's a good feeling. Now, it's time for a brewsky.

That sucks for your area haha.
I've talked to all the BLS crews from other companies and they make less than my 911/IFT company pays us.

Apparently the company pays IFT/Events side less because there is more oppertunities for over time.
