It also depends on what your college major is, I'm in college and working as a basic, but I'm majoring in an Associates in Paramedic Science, and around here medics are in demand. They work with my schedual and the other medics help me a lot so if its something like that, it would probably be...

It helps a lot, definately if your considering working in the ER or Trauma or Code Teams. Also some colleges give you points on your entrance exam for having other certifications in the health care feild. I was taking it while I was in the nursing program and it seemed to help with my other...

Good luck with your class, if it was anything like mine, you'll love it, I wouldnt start just yet, but really pay attention and put some extra time in OB and Peds, those are probably some of the harder sections on the tests. Also I made note cards for when it come time for the national and state...

Thanks shes mommys little girl. I love her to death. I never dreamed I could love anyone as much as I love her.

This is where Murphys Law falls into place, Whatever can go wrong, will go wrong... at the worst possible moment, and in the worst possible way lol. No two calls are ever alike. My ex used to tell ppl if they ever thought about doing drugs, pass it up and get a job in EMS, it gives you a high...

Sorry its been so long sence I've posted anything guys, I just became a new mommy, well kinda, shes a month and 3 days old, I have a baby girl, her name is Jessica Marie Lester, so I'm just now learning a little more about time management, I've not had time to get online recently, so I do...

You can go to the state sites. Theres a link for each on the NREMT site. They should have a list of protocols for that state on thier page

Thanks you guys for the concern and advice, its been really helpful in making a decision. I didnt feel as guilty when I talked to her about getting help. She asked me to follow her home the other day because she had wanted to wreck her car on purpose, thats when I mentioned her seeing someone...

Thanks for the concern and the advice. I do appricate it. I am going to try to talk her into talking to someone on her own rather than report it, I dont want to make someone do something they dont want to, but I do agree she needs help. I dont really think she would do it (I know that sounds...

I think both are important. I think the big problem with bystander CPR is placement of compressions(they are usually a little too far to one side or another) or they dont do hard enough compressions.

I hate to ask for advice on a personal problem, but I thought this would be the best place to go. I'm sure every one has had situations where a friends situation would interfere with work. I have a good friend, and I love her to death, shes like a sister to me, but she tends to be a little...

Try www.emtb.com, it helps a little but not a lot. There are a lot of good sites if you search, and the NREMT site has how many questions will be on each section. Also, my ex worked at a diffrent place, he worked 24s and kept an extra uniform, and the station they worked at had a shower. It was...

Congrats!!!! :)

Congrats on passing your nationals!!!

I'm so sorry for you loss, My prayers go out to you, his family and friends.
