Well as much as I'd like to address all facets of the realm of slavery...... Getting back to the original topic, Man's inhumanity despite his color. The story I'm the video directly attacks the idea that the slave can be JUST as evil as the master and to assume otherwise is a mistake. Every...

. I realize it and acknowledge that American slavery was one of the shortest and least barbaric slavery periods. The meads and the Persians where probably the most brutal and sadistic of the "slave" masters. As slaves go my family was well treated as far as human property goes. And yeah 21st...

Guess ill post my thoughts here, Facebook is overated. It not real often I look over the new music fence but I got wind of the new movie, Safe House. It looks good but the trailer background music caught my attention. It's a song called No Church in the wild by Kanye West (mediocre rapper) and...

Then we get fit shashed.

One more Breath. No, EMS is not like what TV shows you. The truth is we accept death as part of life and instead we grieve for the family left in the house to deal with what just happened. And every near death experience just makes us appreciate the next breath a little more cause we...

I love closed minded people.

Then I guess we gotta agree to disagree there. In the right dose MOST things are good including fear and paranoia. Not to the point where it causes panic but all of have a pretty healthy fear of fire and hot stove tops. when I'm making my way down the hall of that abandoned trailer to my OD...

Censored? I didn't curse. I'm confused. even the "actors" acknowledged the exaggerated nature of the circumstances in the film. The point is show worst case situations. How bad can a bad report and a poor attitude hurt an emt. :censored:Those EMT's had no idea what was going on, nor did...

even the "actors" acknowledged the exaggerated nature of the circumstances in the film. The point is show worst case situations. How bad can a bad report and a poor attitude hurt an emt. :censored:Those EMT's had no idea what was going on, nor did they seem to care. Not to mention that the...

You sat thru how many hours to get your Lic? Turn it around, would you watch for hours of video if your license depened on it? I watched it over 3 days off, try that.

If you have a EMS license you should consdider this mandatory personal viewing. If you are a basic and you dont watch both videos you headed for trouble. I wish I had seen em earlier. The first is an actual course on report writing, the second is what happens if you dont watch the first...

My personal policy is this. If everybody is up (consious) and talking (good airway) they don't need ems. 2. Human behaviour is simple and repetitive, if a woman is holding both hands to her head and screaming someone she knows/loves is hurt really bad so stop and help. 3. If someone is...

I do my best work when I'm absolutely exhausted. I've known this my whole life and it works for me. I didn't apply this knowledge twice and had a similar experience as you did on scene. Now I stay awake most of my shifts, I think being "tired" only lets my brain focus on the task at hand. The...

Not sure why I bother with internet forums.

Micro management reins supreme. I was waiting for a reply like yours. In my short career there has been one consistant, the assumption that basic means inexperienced. Yes most basics are hot shot 21yr olds that will quickly be brought back down to earth by the reality of this job. I'm not one...

The real point of the story was the caregivers involved that treated her like "Just another crackhead" and yes the most reasonable cause was a separated rib.

"Just another Crackhead" illustrates how some people, not all can kinda fall into a rutt when considering other folks situations. BTW, It's never been a habit of mine to "Just another" anybody. Like I said do yourself a favor forget the letters after your name, the flat screen TV and...

Well before you guys get to far off in the wrong direction... The "snap to" reactions are my point exactly. in a group of 6 caregivers I saw beyond the obvious and the stereotypical. Some of the clues where the pillow bringing relife, serious-ly ineffective pain killers, and I had the...
