I currently work for a county health department, and I would recommend talking with your local/county health department as well. A lot of "policy" type stuff comes from most state level agencies, with the locals actually translating the policies into workable plans for their respective...

Yep.

ROFLMAO! After the day I had today, I really needed a laugh. :P Thanks!

Hello, and welcome! I, too, worked at an office job for many years, but always wanted to pursue emergency medicine as a career. I finally worked up the courage to do it, and I would not trade it for the world. Good luck in your classes, and as others have said, don't hesitate to ask...

That's really cool....just thinking of how much that little girl will like those gifts has made me smile. :P Also, even though I'm a little bit late, Happy Thanksgiving as well!

ROFLMAO :D Thanks for brightening my day!

We only use one (10-50, MVA) so learning a bunch of them isn't an issue here. Luckily we use plain language, or else I'd really be confused! B)

There have been (and continue to be) problems with the 800MHz system in certain areas of our county that have very hilly terrain, because of the fact that the county has not been able to install a repeater in the area in question. They've only been working on it for about 5 years. :unsure...

I was an Air Force wife for 2 1/2 years, 1988-1990, married to a medic stationed with the 1st Medical Group at Langley AFB. So, even though I am not a veteran myself, I feel attached to that branch of service!

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I will catch up with you at the end of July! B)

I always try to talk about dispatchers in any of the classes I teach, as well, but I will have to remember to tell people about the fact that units are being dispatched at the same time they are still on the phone. Hadn't really thought about it too much before, but I do think it's a good idea...
