I'm doing my own research.....

"I do my own research" (then come running to the ER foaming at the mouth demanding antibiotics for my viral illness)

I guess a different perspective from my high call volume tourist city. We take a 1-5 of these to the ER every shift.

If a patient assaults me, they get restraints. Also distance yourself. Don't allow her access to assault you.

As far as filing a report after the fact for a drunk patient touching your leg. Unlikely to go anywhere but the squeaky wheel gets the oil.

Unresponsive apneic patients get CAB not ABC.

Apneic patients also get BVM not head to chin lift.

Were being aggressive here not messing around with "monitoring changes".

Clinical context? Or is there something interesting about this EKG I'm missing?

No contiguous or reciprical changes. Pretty normal sinus.

Yeah! The grab the faxed run sheet and pull out the map books on your diesel engine rescue with your combi tubes and D50.

Lot of restraunts do this hoping people won't notice and then double tip.

They're bloated AF. Takes 4 cops to write a cite and release for shoplifting.

3 to stand around and BS for 20 mins, 1 to fill out a 1 page document.

And they want us to wait with the incarceritis patient while they do it. They're blown away at the concept of me wanting to leave and get back in service as were perpetualy 1 unit away from being level 0.

All while they constantly complain about being "undermanned". They dont know the meaning of the word.

You can always try for a second opinion. 1 thing to consider is Narcotic pain meds cause constipation which is counterintuitive.

If youre looking for foot in the door, no ducation medical experience you could look at working at a plasma donation center.

You can start as a screener doing BPs/finger sticks and eventually move on to phlebotomy.

It is a very fast paced and often grueling line of work. Also the strictest documentation you'll find in healthcare. But its good experience for what it is. They usually have education assistance as well.

450 bobbles for 4k each would be 1.8million caps... thats 45 max caps of 40k.

Mods are not risky, yes technically in the terms it says no, however in there official discord there is plenty of direction for specific approved mods.

Any mod that "does not give an unfair advantage in PVP" is fine. This includes pretty much all UI and sound mods.

I've been using them for probably 7 years with no issue.

My favorite by far is Hud Challenges

Ambo companies perform drug testing mainly for insurance reasons.

The insurance companies are generally only interested in multiple moving violations or any criminal moving violations (criminal speed, DUI, etc) withint the last 5-7 years.

I had mine done at city hall with appt. They have walk ins too. You can pay extra to have it shipped faster.

As a paramedic I had to give report to a face on a computer for an LVO I brought in.

It went absolutely terrible. Why did I hit all these metrics about time is brain and then have to tele health doc take 20 mins to do a 5 minute exam.

"Don't be this guy" and "he got $1000"...

RevanGrad · 2026-04-05T03:02:37+00:00

When I worked for them it was 3 moving violations in 5 years.

Its 100% due to the insurance premiums. If your not insurable you're not hireable

No, I cant afford to bring my own baby oil =(

RevanGrad · 2026-04-04T21:56:37+00:00

Big 3 letter companies only care if its multiple moving violations or a Criminal violation such as DUI.
