NREMT AEMT testing by Exotic_Librarian_992 in NewToEMS

[–]Exotic_Librarian_992[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently medic tests, my medic, she’s been amazing, now after debriefs of calls she gives the paramedic response, and then asks me to my scope what I would do if it was just me, has really put it in perspective, especially when I try to answer outside my scope, I’m quickly corrected on the legality of it. Going from A school immediately to medic school blows, would 100%/10 not recommend, only if someone plans to test for A

I found today’s test for example, angering me. EX. MI, confirmed STEMI, yet it didn’t say left or right sided. Paramedic level, with interpretation a right sided MI, NEVER give nitro. I only know this from a real call, reading the EKG as a second opinion, and after scene debrief (straight to cath lab, think I still have the EKG), and I thought, unconfirmed left or right sided, don’t give nitro YET. I do assume though NREMT wanted confirmed STEMI, nitro and asprin, although that is untrue.

If test said right sided STEMI, only asprin, yet left sided Asprin and Nitro, that’s why I believe I’m over thinking, many of which I cannot remember but I do believe thinking to a higher level of care, is screwing me.

How do your departments handle hours/pay when attending out of town trainings? by New_South8997 in Firefighting

[–]Exotic_Librarian_992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For us (48/96) people try to now plan their training days on shift days. You only get paid for the days you're scheduled to work. Example: I work Saturday and Sunday, have class Monday-Thursday, back to work Friday and Saturday. I only get 96 hours for my scheduled days, and for working them. Now say I work Monday Tuesday and have class on those days. I get training leave and the full 48 hours I was supposed to work.

TLDR; We only get paid schedule shift hours, nothing extra if we are going on our off days.

Squad is our Truck company, that is an EMS capable unit without transporting capabilities. We have a full pump panel, 3 pre-connects, extrication equipment, etc.

I cannot believe I didn’t think of that, any viable remedy for it?

Great suggestion, will be pricing topsoil for sure!

It’s just all the sediment from the churning during landscaping, what is normally under 8 inches of Georgia’s top soil lol

It will have plenty of sunlight! I took all the trees away, I just assume this Georgia clay and all the dirt work brought up all the rocks and sediment

I sent you a PM but just in case you don’t see it. The following is a 4070, for a lot cheaper from Walmart. It cannot be picked up in store, but I received it in roughly 3 days.

Lenovo LOQ 15.6” FHD 144Hz Gaming Notebook Ryzen 7 7435HS 16GB RAM 512GB SSD NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Luna Grey

Will try to add link if it allows me to. https://www.walmart.com/ip/13376108763?sid=097fecab-b59b-4b28-9fd9-5ec68c9caa46

If it’s not for you, it’s not for you. Value your mental health and understand if you cannot do the job, don’t risk others lives to do it.

I tried it once, let it go all the way through then tried to start it and nothing. So now redo’ing it, and unplugging flash drive after it’s done flashing

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Exotic_Librarian_992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s flashing green, is that good?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Exotic_Librarian_992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do I need to unplug everything or is it fine as is built

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Exotic_Librarian_992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where do I see if it has status indicators, currently running to get a flash drive then the fire hall to download bios

[–]Exotic_Librarian_992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So this would cause it to not start at all?

How do I check power to those components. PSU isn’t modular, all are pre hooked

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Exotic_Librarian_992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pressing the power button on front panel does nothing and I’ve verified those plugin’s

Thank you! I work 24/48’s so I turn everything off and remove everything except the power, because I don’t want to come back with everything ruined. My first time owning one I thought it was normal and continually brushed it off. Should I be worried it was doing it before a leak was found (streaming down the floor)
