Nur ein bisschen. Ich habe fur drei Jahre in Deutschland gewohnt.

Ya I actually don't speak it but that's rad you lived there! How's the beer?

What got you over there in the first place.

JP that's a bummer man I'm sorry. They don't have ANY affiliations? How an they be a DO school then?

I honestly think the most common language I run into besides English and Spanish is Tagalog.

Probably once a day I get a Tagalog only speaking patient with no translator and despite what anyone says, the language line is useless.

In other news...Jam of the day is "Not Your Fault" by AWOLNATION.

Oh, there's plenty of hospitals in So. Cal. There's only one with an EM residency (plenty without). The thing is that 4th year students generally start the year doing audition rotations at hospitals outside of the school's hospitals. It's like getting a chance to do a part of paramedic clinicals at a service you want to apply to.

Didn't realize anyone else listens to AWOLNATION.
 
Did someone say "jam?"

Caught an MI off of a right bundle block of presumed new onset, found out Pacer Dude lived, and found out Septic Death Girl didn't die, but actually survived (with legs!) to go home, mostly ok and neurologically intact. Plus one of my strokes made the Southwest Integris EMS Kudos wall. Yeah!
 
You guys need to listen to GWAR.....or better yet, Cannibal Corpse :)
 
I see what they did there...
I didn't realize it until you mentioned "I see what they did there...", and I read it again. :rofl:

I lived there when I was in middle school, so I didn't get a chance to enjoy the beer the first time around. Never fear though! I've been back since and taken full advantage. My dad was in the Air Force and stationed over in Wiesbaden. Definitely a great experience.

Also, good call on AWOLNATION. I feel a Pandora playlist coming on.
 
When I realised I still have 3 more days of holidays, I was as happy as this guy-

That's a fantastic idea. Been jammin' to a Trapt station and the Avenged Sevenfold one lately, needing to switch it up.

In other news, the theme of today was random BS traffic accidents.
 
Having never taken a computer or photoshop class I am slowly learning how to do things.

Started with a picture of my 3 year old EMT shirt and turned it into:

Mine was named "Full moon-fall-n-fracture Friday"

It's going to be a long shift.. sigh.

As bad as it is to say, I like those calls. Pain management is one of the few things that we can make a difference right now rather than just offer a ride with a ton of stickers and an uncomfortable IV.

The chart is a pain in the *** but its pretty awesome to consciously sedate grandma with the nasty hip fracture and untangle her from the toilet only to have her wake up in the ambulance and ask what happened.
 
To my surprise few days ago I was working with a fellow emtlifer. We even had a pair of stemi that day.
