So I only wear gloves if I need to... Generally have one on my left hand as a notepad and that's all.

Does that make me stupid?

Same here.

If your using your hand as a notepad, buy a notepad

You should have 2 pens, one for you, one for your partner

As a range instructor told me:

Slow is Smooth, Smooth is fast

Red Lights And Sirens are not needed on every calls

I just meant I only wear gloves when needed. Haven't used a glove as a notepad in years and just remember what people tell me.

I came up with these for my site a while back:

THE LAWS OF EMS

1. Help your patient in any way you can.
2. Be nice to everybody. It’s your job.
3. If you can’t save their life, make their day a little better.
4. Protect your partner.
5. Have a reason for everything you do.
6. Leave the patient better off than when they met you.
7. It should get calmer when you show up.
8. Good habits make doing the right thing easy.
9. Tomorrow, nothing will remain but your documentation.
10. Everything’s a bigger deal to the person on the stretcher.
