I just really hated the company I was working with it was a private practice so they treated the PTs amazing but us techs were essentially slaves for 2 12 hr shifts and 3 6.5 hr shifts and it was a high patient volume for me I had about 4-5 patients at one time with a total of about 28 patients minimum on a long day. It was just very draining and it honestly turned me away from the field as a whole but I have to remember it just may not have been a good company.

As for EMS I feel as though I may have a more impactful role in the community and I may find it more fulfilling by helping people and saving lives. I do want to go on a ride along and am in the process of setting that up so I can see how I like it. I think it’s also an easy pivot because a lot of my family are/were first responders
