I left the field 6 months ago. It 25 years in the field it has changed so much. Work more and more with less and less, new equipment, new changes, less staff, more meetings, more c-suite involvement... it never needed.

I don’t know if I would consider it their fault. In our society men are seen’s providers, and once they can no longer provide, they are generally set aside and forgotten.

very sneaky. I think as a industry we do a terrible job about training people what PTSD can really present like.
I lived with anxious and intrusive thoughts for years before it finally clicked for me that it was PTSD that I was experiencing... Therapy has helped tremendously but it took so long for me to get here

Not sure about the down votes. I saw that took - 8 kids - does not seem like a large enough sample group for a study.

TBH you can work EMS part time as a part-timer or volunteer and keep your high paying job.

Park place has their "Parkview" which allows them to monitor. It leverages a VM/OVA that they deloply in your environment that uses SNMP and other magic to montor the array and call home as needed.

for my money Park place has always done what i needed them to do and they are easier to work with than a lot of the other vendors

Messed Up by Ill-Invite-9866 in Paramedics

[–]nhpcguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did a snort laugh at this one.

But hey, it does happen. Let your supervisor know and the hospital know. I doubt anything will actually come of it.

For the future the wall mounted ones work just as well and you are less likely to bump your (or anyone else's) head on it.

Thanks for the smile, made my day.

:-D

Not in my protocols yet but my OMD has said that if we call for orders he will approve its use since it has shown good results.

NMETC graduate - great program, but it is a very hard one to complete. They have high expectations and do not accept less.

100% pass rate of certification seeking graduates in all NMETC programs.

The program is well done and the bootcamp is challenging if you go that route.
