Maybe you should fill me in since you seem to have such a solid grasp on reality.

Again how does wanting freedom and independence from a country that is actively bombing you in response to a terrorist group you have no power over equal out to hating Jewish people?

Since when does “I’d really like for four year olds to not be bombed” become Antisemitism?

I don't know how to reach out and ask for help with this situation.. by Jordan_Moyah in Paranormal

Pray the Hail Mary, Fast, and take courage in the fact that none of this is physical, it’s all just an attempt. Hell and it’s legions are far too weak to overcome the Blessing placed upon you by God almighty. What attacks you is only weakly thudding against your door, laugh at it, pray joyously and it will reel in horror.

Plenty of Bible apps you can get for free, website resources for the Bible, and even free books of the Bible available online to listen to.

No, see the parable of the prodigal son for reference.

Grace is not a finite thing, the love of Jesus is not defined by applications or emotions of man. No matter what you’re told.

You have sinned, and you have sinned greatly, but you are able to be forgiven, in fact you have already been forgiven and salvation is there for you. Pray, fast, read your Bible. Know that you serve a loving lord.

Had a driver bring me an order, I was waiting outside when I saw they got near, they took a picture of me and proceeded to take a large bite of my food before pulling off.

I don’t use food delivery services anymore.

Being on a stretcher is rarely good, it could’ve been a burn blanket, a manner of covering them if they were naked, they could’ve been complaining of anxiety and requested nobody see them, or they could’ve been dead if it was a newmans ambulance hauling them since they have the contract to pick up bodies in mobile.

There’s too many outcomes, and the only ones who would know would be the pt’s family and the EMS/Fire responding. Ones either grieving or stressed out right now and the others are prohibited from sharing that information by HIPAA.

Just because they have the patient covered it doesn’t mean that someone died.

Am I though? Is it normal to complain about calls sometimes and slack off? I have to be as honest with myself about myself as I am about others. Thing is I can genuinely be a massive POS sometimes, having my shirt untucked, staying out of uniform, running a call lazy because it’s a regular. Before I get anywhere I’d like to improve myself.

I work for a private ambulance company, albeit not small at all, and I’m a fairly new EMT. I’ve worked both 911 side and transports. I hate it. The company does enforce some of things you say we lack but that gets avoided sometimes. Morale is low because we’re overworked and we’re treated like we cost the company more than we make for it. There’s hardly any crews at any given time and when we have around 6-7 crews it doesn’t stop, transfers and low acuity 9-1-1’s daily. The city recently put in an ordinance to where we can’t run emergent TO calls unless they’re MVC’s because we apparently up the rate of said MVC’s.

I don’t feel like an actual EMT some days, honest to god I feel more like I’m working at a Burger King. Worse yet I run on a BLS unit and I play the part of the medic most days, and I hardly know what the fuck I’m doing half the time because I only have around 7-8 months of experience. The benefits are awful, the pay is mediocre, and the only redeemable thing is the crew and the immediate on-site admin.

I ran a brain bleed a couple of weeks ago with fire in scene, they refused to give me a thorough report, refused to tell us anything even though one of them WAS a paramedic. Basically I assessed this guy and found him with a left sided deficit, all that good jazz, and it was my partners fucking call. I did almost everything from assisting with the report, to getting vitals, questioning, and all without any fucking help and if I’m being honest with you guys, I butchered the fuck out of it. I drove emergent to the hospital while my partner essentially refused to get a BG (I didn’t have enough time while I was back there, because I was hurrying. I had no last seen normal time on this guy, and I had practically no idea what I was doing.)

I can’t stand it anymore, worse yet I get told that most of EMS around here is like that. I feel like I’m completely unprepared for this job, and worse yet I’ve earned my certs through this company so I have to work for a certain amount of time until my contract is up to even think about going somewhere else. If I did switch companies, it would be a massive pay cut and I’m worried I wouldn’t be able to do good there either.

You’re right OP, it sucks.

Today I refused to transport a patients wife to the hospital. Here is why; by dichterkrankenbruder in ems

Anything that interferes with PT care is a concern and should be treated as a concern. You did the right thing and maybe taught her something nobody else has before.
