the 100% directionless thread

Representing my home state and town well :rolleyes:

You're from The Springs?

I'm sorry :P

Lived in Boulder/Longmont for a while, still have a lot of family in Westminster, Centennial and Lakewood. Lots of friends in Boulder, Denver and Summit county.

Along with a few other systems Denver Health Paramedics is a system I've spent a lot of time looking at.
 
I miss Colorado Srings. But mostly I miss Big City Burrito in Fort Collins.
 
How the heck am I supposed to relearn everything when I finish the fire academy in a couple weeks?

Hopefully I set foot back on the ambulance and it all comes back to me...

Nervous. Was doing so well self educating and building my knowledge up until 4 months ago.

I may have run into you a time or two. I went to college at CSU in FoCo, and spent quite some time at Big City Burrito.

I was only there for a week. Spring break my senior year. Colorado beats the beach any day.

Id be lying if I didnt admit to going to big city burrito daily and washed it down with some New Belgium. :D

I love Colorado. Denver Health wasn't where I was looking to work, but I may end up working somewhere in Colorado at some point.
 
At the new place?

That doesn't bode well.

No, it does not. My FTO is all kinds of "five-year critical care medic" experienced. Apparently, 83 m tachycardic, sweating, sustained fever, new weakness, syncopal fall a week after surgery is "just dehydration". Negative marks for sepsis, questioned 12-lead because he had a paced rhythm.

Grr...AMR was better. I hope it gets better here.

Might leave a copy of SIRS criteria laying conspicuously laying around....:ph34r:

Hey now, I am a proud resident of that there city! And I have never done any meth!
 
:censored:'s getting real... High school graduation in less than a week... I'm so not excited.. Time for that last week crunch trying to get all my grades up haha

Have I missed some recent Colorado Springs developments? Up in the Briarhood, we were pretty sheltered and didn't see a lot of meth.
 
That is the new information..

Yeah, I couldn't be more confused by these posts. The only possible explanation I have is that they appear to be from the Middle East and may not be a native English speaker.
 
Holy crap. I'm getting over-ambulanced... Starting to get that crispy feeling.

I've hit the burnout phase I think...
 
I would like to thank the local high schools for their lack of incidents this prom season. 4 private and public schools in the immediate area, and not one single alcohol or drug related call during/after any of their proms.
Now...the local taverns....not the same story. The proverbial 3:00 a.m calls still suck.

I think she was trying to hit 5 posts to post a link.
 
Hmm. So, you wouldn't consider him a "good medic"? Hahah.

Thats a negative.

He would fit right in at EMSA, but not AMR.. The worst part is that he was originally wanting to leave the guy there because he told the tribal PD he just needed help into his chair and "he's already seen his doctor (last week) and is on antibiotics (bactrim)". Apparently, field-diagnosing sepsis without a WBC count is impossible. "Hes just sick and dehydrated". Dude was even doing the "Im sick" fever sprawl thing.

Then he got all pissy when we transported an old lady who fell, had some skin tears and wanted to go to the hospital. Lazy ******. If grandma wants to go get bandaged up and stop bleeding, it is our job to take her.

I suspect that he and his fire-protection bachelors degree are burned-out, arrogant and ignorant of quite a lot important.
