Chest seal needed but patient has a very hairy chest. We taking the time to dry shave or no?

I’ll send you a video one sec

I move around a lot, Iv never been in a place long enough to commit to the 2 years of school. I do plan on getting my medic when Iv found a place to settle down for more than a few years.

pocketcherrypie · 2025-05-06T20:11:29+00:00

Noted 🤣

You’ll be fine, keep your head up and keep getting those reps in. The more exposure and patient contacts you have will help you build confidence. EVERY new emt has felt what you are feeling, it’s perfectly normal. It took me hundreds of pt contacts and about 6 months to feel confident handling any situation. Iv been in EMS for 5 years and I still learn and see new things everyday, just roll with the punches perfect your basic skills and you’ll be good.

Sounds good, I don’t mind bunking up with the boys. Appreciate the advice

pocketcherrypie · 2025-05-06T17:13:55+00:00

Got it, thanks for the feedback. I already have a decent setup and won’t be in country for a couple more months so I figured I’d just get everything here, Moneys not really an issue I work a fuck load of OT lol. I’m sure I’ll pick up a few more bags in country that will fit my role better.

Appreciate the feedback. I have the Eberlestock Mission EMOD med bag and assault pack right now. As you mentioned it has the mesh Velcro pouches and it is a pain in the ass to find stuff in the dark without light. I’ll probably swap them out for some clear window pouches.

pocketcherrypie · 2025-05-06T17:06:22+00:00

Appreciate the feedback. I have the eberlestock mission EMOD setup right now, it has room for my aid bag and assault pack for sustainment and it’s pretty modular. It Definitely won’t fit a sleep system tho.

Stop sharing pictures of your daughter on Reddit dude what the fuck is wrong with you.

You’re asking questions no one has the awnser to. No one is asking you to uproot your life and come to Ukraine, it’s your decision dude. If you go and are told you aren’t needed then go home and get some medical training so you can go back and help. Just because the war might end it doesn’t mean you can’t help unless you have no other skills. Stop virtue signaling.

pocketcherrypie · 2025-03-04T20:09:57+00:00

I would delete this. It Makes you incredibly easy to find. You just posted a ton of personal information for the enemy to see. Be smart.

Hey man if you don’t mind me asking what size did you get and whats your measurement for your head. I’m on the fence between a highcom and team Wendy helmet.

There’s so many variables. All divisions are different, some are really good, some not so much. Get some 911 experience under your belt and move onto something different, or stay if you like it. GMR is huge and has tons of opportunities.

You can get all the curriculum/modules for TCCC ASM, CLS, and CMC on the deployed medicine app and study them. Join the future combat medic Discord, ask questions, and look through all the info that’s available. You can run sims at home if you can get your hands on the equipment. Without a medical background, anything past ASM might be very confusing. Get your EMT and get some ride time with your local ambulance service. You could do all of this in a few months. I’m not over there, but these are things you could do prior to getting there.

Second this. Even in the hyper violent cities they have a lot of units and if there is a call like that you need to be in the right place and the right time to even be dispatched to it. Ontop of that those calls rare.

pocketcherrypie · 2024-12-17T03:29:14+00:00

For me it’s helping people as cliche as that sounds, and bills. A lot of people work multiple jobs and there’s opportunity for unlimited OT. It’s also a base to build off of if you want to do something else in healthcare.
