I always was amused at the Duty To Act part for off duty. Granted, yes I have my hands which can help hold a flashlight or something mundane like that. But I wouldn't touch anything with out a pair of gloves (Scene Safe, PPE! Drilled into our heads starting on the first day of classes) If...

Does anyone know if Arizona has a Duty To Act? I just moved to AZ in may, and have to take the BLS refresher course to become state licensed (thank god it's not like CA where you are county licensed, what a pain that was). Not that I wouldn't act anyways, but just wanted to know the law on it...

supratheraputic or supraphysiological? I'm still a student and haven't gotten that far... what does that mean exactly?

Halfway through class and still going strong! Whew, it's tough to juggle things around sometimes and find time to study. Anyone else ever have that issue? Err... any other single parents here have that issue? I had my anatomy and terminology test today. Was worried about it because I didn't...

I know I already answered this once but something just hit me today... don't know if this happened to anyone else. You know those high school tests you take when you answer a bunch of questions and it tells you what field you should go in to... I think it's an interest/career survey? I...

Good point Sasha. I shouldn't be on here when I'm as tired as I was last night, lol. Sorry about that, I don't really even remember writing that. But you make a very valid point.

true... pots illegal... in some states. :) but no, I don't do anything now except drink once in a while and I still smoke cigarettes for the moment. my guiltiest pleasure now? watching these on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-guE4CX5sA&feature=related hope you guys enjoy them...

oh i'm not complaining of it. i understand it. i just never have a good answer for people... lol. but i always seem to have questions! lol. I'm just happy I am able to start new threads which will help tremendously during school and i have silly questions to ask.

yeah, I'm taking the B course and then moving onto paramedic once I get some job experience for at least 6 months. I am able usually to study at work luckily. Thanks though, I appreciate the advice. Does it get any better once your on the job or does the exhausted feeling continue?

I just looked it up on the computer one day recently under EMT jobs. A lot near Sacramento. My best friend is in the nursing program and said the best places to find jobs is in irvine, sacramento and san francisco. if your in between jobs and still looking or just looking to pick up extra...

I know this was a very old thread but I didn't want to try to start a new one.

Okay... I'm only a student... and a new one at that. There are so many things going on in my life already being a single full time mom of two kids plus having to work full time and still finding time to study. I know it's probably only going to get worse til school is finished and I find an...

aww man, that's terrible! I hope you hear back from them soon.

I've just started EMT classes. I go to two a week, they are about four hours long. I just watched a video yesterday about airways and they went into extreme details about each part of the airway. I don't know about the rest of the class but since I never took A&P I was completely lost on what...

thank you very much... i should have been able to figure it out. grr.
