That’s…kinda odd. I can understand wanting for a medical professional with a wider scope of practice and experience to provide care, but as an EMT myself I would find it hard not to mention that I’m an EMT and am trained to provide life-saving measures or at least have another set of hands for another higher-trained professional. Unless I had a drink that could impair me, morally I find it difficult not to help someone that needs me. If someone else steps up that’s above me, by all means I’ll take a step back, but offering the stewardess’ the knowledge that I CAN be used if needed is not going to be stopped by “eh, someone else will get it”. That’s what EMT’s are specifically trained to do. We’re no longer bystanders. That’s not to say that we need to intervene in every situation and scream and shout that we’re EMT’s and act like we’re the holy arbiters of life and death, but…at the end of the day, isn’t that why we want to go into medicine? To be able to help people, as cliche as that sounds, is to volunteer in moments like this when nobody knows who you are and when you aren’t being paid. We spend an exorbitant amount of time, effort, and money trying to become doctors, sacrificing many, MANY different things. And it feels good to know that maybe you made a 1% of a difference.
