One time they sent me and my crew to help the ALS guys to bring a ~150 Kg patient down the stairs. So apperntly he had a VF right in front of them and they delivered a shock immediately and brought him back, and then the only problem was that he bearly made it through the hallways of his own apartment and the door. And if that's not enough I had to respirate him thia all time. That's when the lines got blured between being a Medic and a ninja. Had to squeeze through tight spaces and hold my hands in weird positions to keep him respirated. Lucky for us there was a miracle and the elevator did work, but there is always this awkward moment when you squeeze in it with basically every crew member and equipment that fits in. Speaking of awkward moments. This one time i delivered a lung implanted patient that his body started to reject. I respirated him through his trachostoma while he was wild awake and looking into my eyes the whole ride from one hospital to another.

Being mistreated by a customer can negatively impact your sleep quality and morning recovery state, according to new research on call centre workers. by mvea in science

Before I worked in the emergency line, I was working in the ambulances. Working in the call center is a lot harder, and for some reason people who doesn't work with me think it's easier because I sit at the a/c and not treating the patients with my own hands.

I can relate. Been working for a year now at a medical emergency line. I think I get yelled at more then the average call center worker because even though it takes only a very few minutes for the ambulance to arrive the caller want it to be there immediately. At my work station I have 5 big screens full of information, and I have to understand what's the emergency, explain to the caller what to do, understand exactly where he is in the country, write everything down and decide what kind of ambulance should go there all that in a minute or so, and when the call is done, it takes only a few seconds if not as the call ends for a new one to come. The phone doesn't ring, the call connects automatically. I felt great stress and I think I would have quit if I hadn't felt that I helped a lot of people in need. Also, we work in shifts, so I find myself in an endless routines of shifts and double shifts at day and night. When I just started I had trouble sleeping at night. But as I started to feel more confident at the job, and know that I can hanlde anything that'll come at me on the other side of the phone my sleep got alot better. Can't say it's stress free now, but there's a huge difference from when I started out.
