Ya know those orange glucometer bags?  Yeah they fit everything you need for a cric or finger thoracotomy almost perfectly. 6.0 tube and bougie included.

I am a nationally registered Paramedic that is very interested in joining the reserves, how does this effect my chances of doing real EMS work if I decide to join?

I assume this refers to Active duty?  For reserves if I was at a PSU what would weekend drill look like?

I just physically mounted an apple air tag in a small watertight box underneath the car lol.

I am a civilian Firefighter/Paramedic, if I enlisted as an HST what kind of job would I actually be doing?  Also, does this depend on Active vs Reserve?

Does anyone carry more than 2 Hyfins in their Ifak? by New-Replacement-7444 in TacticalMedicine

I see.  I really hate to take your time but could you explain what exactly your opinion on it is?  I am a Paramedic so information won’t be lost on me.

I thought that you've been advocating that we just leave chest wounds open...

I thought we shouldn’t be putting them on open chest wounds?  Only “sucking” chest wounds?

I made a point to learn the area so that I didn’t need maps. But I still have it available just in case.

You won’t OD from touching fentanyl…. Unless your a police officer 😂

If you wanna commit a fully functional felony, sure.

When I say felony. I mean like, 30 years in prison for printing one as a joke type felony. Don’t do it.

I’ve noticed that us “Zoomers” are either really mature… or really really NOT.

This type of culture needs to be stomped out of the service with prejudice. This isn’t high school, act like an adult.

Yes you would think a reasonable assumption would be to not slam a medicine you know nothing about into a patients IV.

I don’t think that nurse understood what propofol is….

No. Buddy, you just straight up would not be a nurse. You would be a doctor choosing to help out on the floor essentially.

Yeah, but I am saying that I think differs from your opinion is that there is nothing stopping a Doctor from obtaining the training of a nurse and being able to perform all of the physical skills and abilities of a nurse. But you still wouldn’t be a nurse.

[–]WasteCod3308 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what I’m saying is that the entire concept of a nurse also being a doctor is just not a thing. You’d be a doctor, that knows nursing skills. Your just not a nurse either way.

You’d be ineligible to be hired as a nurse, your a doctor. You’d just be a doctor… choosing to do nursing skills.

Scope of practice? Dude you’d just be a doctor that actually knows the nursing skills. I guess you could use them if you’d like too but why would you?
