Most of those classes are included as part of the initial paramedic program.

No, its all part of the curriculum of my medic program, I don't know anything about NAEMT. I wouldn't worry with them (assuming you are even allowed?) if you are still working on basic right now. What you would do now you are already being taught (BVM, compressions). The rest of the stuff like meds and intubation are going to be irrelevant to you until you get your medic license.

But I think he left again...

The feels and all......

Also, I wish we had Cardizem on our rigs; it's not in any EMS basic paramedic protocol I've ever worked under. I've seen it in CCT protocols, but I did learn of it in medic school and before that as a working EMT.

ALSO- If you're lurking and wondering just what the heck we are talking about, check the thread Aprz was referring to and see the article DE posted. Great info there.

We carry cardizem and have standing orders for it.


I'm bored. Only wheel we've turned all day was to go to a fire standby then were cancelled since they were just doing mop up and had no need for the second medic unit. Then we stopped at subway on the way home.

Now I'm watching Man on Fire. Gotta love Denzel!

Do love Denzel.

We have also done nothing, which is fine since between internship and work I work 110 of the next 120 hours....

5 units went out of service today, due to various mechanical issues. Including mine, which blew a water pump mid-transport. Fun all around.

I like the gsxr better, but I don't know yet. The Versys makes more sense.

Suzuki SV650's are nice. Almost pulled the trigger on one a couple years ago.

My ninja 650 was a parallel twin and it was bulletproof. And I love the power curve compared to the i4 zx6r I had

I would love a 675, but I'm too short lol. Damn things have the highest seat height of their class.
I think if I was going to buy another new bike, I'd get a KTM 690 Duke or a Ducati 821 Dark Monster. But then again, since my next bike will most likely be used, I wanna try to find an older ZX-7R or Z7S

I love Ducatis. Sexy as hell. Two-wheeled Lamborghinis.

But at the same time, just like with cars and trucks, it is tough to beat an Asian make for performance and reliability and overall value.

I haven't had a street bike in years. I want another one before too long.

I'm a little more "mature" than you guys I think, so I'll probably go with something like a lightly used Honda ST. Also love BMW's but they are a bit pricier.

True... But a used monster isn't tpo badly priced, especially if you can find a dark model.
