Nice idea. Not yet, maybe I’ll get it out the window or something sometime.

Do this any you’ll never worry about your back again :)

Well today is going well got one call this morning which turned out to be just a unresponsive patient who took too much opioids and some narcan got them breathing a bit better. Got a nap in after only sleeping about three hours last night, and got about 12 more hours till I’m off. Got a great...

He stuck with his principles, not everyone does that anymore. I didn't always agree with what he did, but he didn't do things for politics alone, there was always a reason behind it.

Each company will do it differently on pay but a lot of them will go with a lower pay rate than a 12hr or whatever other shift they have, so everyone makes the same. It just is the amount of days that you are at work that is different. Meal breaks are when you're not running a call, very few...

Yeah you're not going to get a response from them, they've not been on in two years now. Your company would be the ones to ask as they have the most up to date information. This thread is six years old.

UCLA used to not have it required when I went there, but it's strongly encouraged.

The difference isn’t that significant from what some of the 68ws who I work with have told me.

Ok so I know we've had this discussion before, but I couldn't find the last thread. I've worn Hanes athletic crew socks for years and they fit comfortably, but the lastest reviews on the site show that they changed the design and they now suck. Looking for recommendations for a good sock that...

Volunteering at an EMS agency that hires volunteers. It's kind of hard to give advice when we don't know what area you are looking in. Once we have that we can help more. But also look at IFT companies they constantly need people and they may be willing to take someone of your age. You are...

If you're a competent paramedic and it wasn't anything too egregious I don't see any reason why you couldn't be hired by one of the other counties.

You need to contact your state EMS office and apply for a EMT cert as NREMT is only a testing agency and doesn’t certify you to work as a EMT. I’d wait to apply until after you get your EMT card from the state. It won’t hurt to look around and see who is hiring and make sure that you have...

Possible heat but never made it on scene. Our air evac unit beat us to the scene and transported to the helipad by our hospital where another unit picked them up to get them to the ER

Yes No Bachelors of Science in health sciences. Concentrated in EMS management

Asides from that it looks like the application period is already closed, my guess would be the civilian part of it means you’re a non sworn member of the fire department and don’t get the same benefits that the firefighters get.

Go back to the office and see if your paperwork is still there. If it didn't get mailed that could be part of the issue

Welcome to the CA DMV where they lose everything, don't know their own policies, take their sweet time with everything, and only one person who doesn't answer their phone is the only one who can help you (regardless of why you are calling it will never be the person who answers the phone). That...

From what you are saying he never should have become an EMT. One of the primary jobs is driving the ambulance and being unable to consistently take the shorter routes isn't good. If he was taking too long to deliver a pizza that should have been a huge indication that he needs to work more on...

Got one of those as well, it's more than you will ever need, but works great as a travel bag
