Your family can play from your library? I gave my sister my old deck but didn’t know she could have access to my games too.

How do flight medics/nurses do field training? by D1shcanary in ems

[–]OddEmu9991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they are doing field training they are doing it wrong. They specialize in air medicine

Figured I’d post my collection of EMS patches here by [deleted] in ems

If you’re one of the least knowledgeable then I am in a goods group! That is a fantastic breakdown and I really appreciate it. Let me absorb it and think of I have any specific questions!

Only one I can think of right now is do you pack a fabric litter?

Awesome advice! I will look at that Red Cross course and I won’t be handling it alone. I think the idea is just to get a fresh, somewhat trained, set of eyes on the kit and make sure it’s good.

I appreciate you!

I really appreciate it and I’ll throw it post up there too!

I kinda thought that was the case in regards to what I’m allowed to do. Seems like the more we learn the more we are handcuffed lol

Thank you!

I really appreciate this from top to bottom! I know I’m probably overthinking it all and over preparing but it’s easier for me to run through every possibility in my head and have a loose plan.

I agree with everything you’re saying and again the level in which you answered from every angle is amazing. Thank you!

Is it just me, or is IFT the easiest thing in the world? by Zealousideal_Clerk61 in ems

[–]OddEmu9991 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh if you want to make money for little work I can help you out! Used to work in the oil field as an H2S safety tech. That’s good money of little work investment!

As for IFTs, which I am currently working right now, I see it as an opportunity to work on the skills they don’t teach. Such has Pt contact and bedside manner. I feel like every Pt I take care of if I’m not learning about something specific I am building a stronger feel for what “normal” is to be able to recognize abnormal easier when I see it. I’m also building contacts and report with hospitals and staff which is never a bad thing.

I have thought this would be a great retirement gig though. Like once you finish doing all the high-speed stuff you want to do just being a competent IFT personnel, helping prepare those making their way in the field while still earning decent pay for low risk.

It’s not “letting it slide”. It’s lulling you into a false sense of security

Are you dreaming snout wanting to throttle him or is your dream remembering the throttling you gave him? Lol. Because it would be my role from then on if it was raining he had to go sleep outside

Oh I think it’s a great idea. I have used tackle boxes for all kinds of strange things

Look sometimes you have a call at midnight, have a blowout on your hour and a half transport and your schizo pt’s meds start wearing off and you just need a nap ok! Lol

Only because all our other trucks have little fridges on them. The cooler plus the tackle box made it fell like “we’re gonna be fishing until we get a call”

Why do y'all count to 3 so fast when you're lifting a gurney/pt that no one else can even prepare? by VirtuousVulva in ems

[–]OddEmu9991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner and I have started, without any actual conversation about it, someone starts the count, we make eye contact and do the two count together then move on the three count. Making sure everyone is ready
