My night has gone like this.

Me to ER: calling for pronouncement. 31 year old male asystole. Unknown down times. Core is cool to the touch. Pupils fixed and dilated. 30 minutes of ACLS preformed with no change.

ER: Time of death 2101.

At 2103....

Me: ER we will be enroute to your facility P1 with 31 year old male ROSC. BP 120/90 and spontaneous respirations.

That was a first lol

That's pretty much how my first cardiac arrest went...medic was on the phone for pronouncement and was just about to hang up, and the guy got pulses back.

My student today is a winner. She's only on her third ride-out. Didn't want to familiarize herself with the unit, doesn't feel like she needs to go over anything, and is currently on the couch absorbed in some random novel, despite me offering to go over 12 leads with her since she said she's weak on them. A real go-getter...

No one offered to teach me anything or coach me on my ride alongs. I would've jumped at the chance to learn more or reinforce things I have learned. You have to question her motivation to join the ems community.

Can I come and have you teach me a few things?? [emoji5]️
 
Riiigghhhtttt.... Someone pass the buttered popcorn and a raincoat. It's either going to get a bit steamy in here or STXmedic's trainee is going to die in a massive bloodbath. Either way, it's going to be a spectacle...

I hope some random student riders are now reading this thread and wondering if their preceptor is the mysterious STXmedic himself...

Hint for all of you: He is everywhere, and he is watching.
 
I would send her home. She is not there to relax and.have a good time. Her lack of knowledge where stuff of the ambulance is could get her in trouble
I did the rig check every shift, me and my preceptor went over a piece of equipment a day related protocol every shift and there were no excuses.
Her behavior is absurd, and I hope she is not a medic student because she has no right to be in the back of your ambulance or running calls after that behavior. She needs some time off to think about why she wants to be there at all.

Hmm it appears that I have reached 4000 posts. Hooray?
 
Got a Christmas bonus at work. Very unexpected but I'm grateful because I needed it
 
We were told we would not be getting them this year...This morning I found out differently with it taped to my locker, awesome!
 
@TransportJockey. Any chance you remember where all those pics of the meds and protocols you guys use are posted? I'm trying to share the info with a disbelieving partner.
 
I'll uplOad them to my photibucket. Stand by

I'm getting the same vibe of that last bit as I do with Santa clause is coming to town. Creepy...
Speaking of that, I was with my 7 year old niece yesterday and that song came on. All of the sudden she just said "that stalker better not be watching me!"
Hahaha

You can do all of that stuff?! is that because you're a flight medic or a cct medic?

Yep. And all of our 911 medics are trained to cct level and we xan do it during flight calls, transfers, or 911 calls
