We mainly wear polos, or duty t-shirts. Must be tucked in, and CLEAN!!! If everyone is wearing the same, and look clean, you shouldn't have a problem. The reason I stress the clean issue, is I've seen some private service EMTs in dirty, or stained uniforms, very unprofessional, and most...

-Always find myself reaching for my pen, writing pad, shears, or penlight even when in off-duty clothes - Do this one all the time lol
-Stop at a red light, make sure it is safe, and then proceed slowly through the intersection - Did this in front of a police officer, she pulled me over, and...
I'm a member, and I like it. They help me keep up to date on what's going on with any changes in training, or laws. The training classes they provide are really good. I am really happy about the EMS Safety course, and are members get discounts on different products, like we have a special...
I've worked at two plastic manuf. facilities in the last 3 years. The first one I was at, before being laid off, we were only able to provide band aids, and CPR if someone needed it. The plant I just left, we were able to do everything that I can do know on my rescue rig, exept transport. At...
I like it alot. I used to carry a Stinger by Streamlight back in my LEO days, and the thing broke on me four times. I got the SureFire and never had a problem since, still using the original light bulb. The one thing I would change is, finding a rechargable system for it. The battery life is...
All of our rigs have halogen light bars. The brush trucks have LED's in the front, and rear on the fenders. The rescue vehicle had strobes on the front, sides, and rear with a smaller Code 3 halogen light bar (that I repaired). I like the halogen's, and the strobes over the LEDs, because we...
Me, ADD since 14, but out grew it? At least that's what our family MD told my parents at the time. My Brother, had ADHD, and still struggles with it to this day.
I got the Maxi-Medic bag for my own use, and I carry it in my pov, and out to calls as well. I love it, comes in different colors, and has lots of room. I can't find the page for just the bag alone, but here is the one for the complete kit. I only payed 60.00 for the bag only...
All of our kits are blue nylon bags with the reflective SOL on the flap, but our old rescue vehicle still has a hard case. I personally us the Dynamed Maxi-Medic bag, same color scheme as above.
I carry my Sure Fire G2 in an Uncle Mikes nylon pouch, and I have a ring keeper so I can carry our D-cell Maglights, for when were assisting in traffic control. My pen light stays in my bag or leg pocket.
