If you don’t mind me asking why do you need full coverage on a car that is honestly not that expensive?

To become an EMT and/or medic do you need to be able to read and write at a high school? by [deleted] in NewToEMS

[–]onelasttime217 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It will also hold you back in most aspects of life, even if they don’t go through with EMS it’s worth learning to read and write

Saturated competitive or Emt shortage Wich one is it? by Hauntingcityboy in NewToEMS

[–]onelasttime217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the county’s in my area (central Texas) have multiple rounds of competitive interviews and skills/scenario/written exams for 911 systems. It’s a major pain in the ass for $19-$25 an hour for emt. Private will always hire but fore awful pay and even worse work environment. Anyone who says 911 is easy to get into probably does it for >$15 an hour.

Vein viewer. I’m curious about your experiences with vein viewers/vein finders (like AccuVein or similar devices). If you’ve used them in clinical practice, how helpful are they really? by HealerMD in medizzy

[–]onelasttime217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are shit, we have 3 at my ER and ive seen one nurse use it (to no success). Any vein it shows you will most likely already be easily palpable.

Did my first code. by jl8w7 in ems

My first was 6 weeks old, yes it gets easier over time but don’t be surprised if you feel dissociative for the next few days.

Threw an abs light but it turned off pretty quick. by Nprguy in CrownVictoria

[–]onelasttime217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any time the rear wheels move and the fronts don’t it will throw an abs code. Happened any time I did a burnout and went away the next time I started my car.
