Hi all, I am a newly minted Paramedic and through all my training I've found one universal truth. In my small part of the world there is an epidemic of under-qualified and just plain terrible primary educators. We are plagued by: Unprepared instructors with poorly formatted lesson...

This may answer your question. The service(s) I've worked for typically provide shirts, jacket, hats, and turn a blind eye if you grab a pair of shears and penlight. I have one service that gives a stipend yearly that can be spent as you choose. They provided 5 short sleeve shirts, 2...

I make lots of foil meals. Make up foil pouches throw them in the oven and wait. I make all three meals at home bring them in one cooler and don't have to worry about prep.

Have his cert framed in a nice frame, NREMT sells some nice paramedic specific ones. A nice watch designed to handle some roughness and water Paramedic field guide, not an everyday tool but when you need it its worth gold If his Service doesn't provide them. A nice multi season rain...

Bob Page says, Use the bell (soft touch w/ littmann tuneable) And keep the scope away from the cuff. Putting the bell under the cuff will do you no favors.

I assume you're referring to the bp's? We've had some issue w/ them but only while moving. Tube length needs to be as short as reasonably possible, cuff secured tightly, and don't let the tube sway much or rest on the rail. With those things taken care of ours is within 5. Pulse ox is...

How about a headlamp? Size is your limiting factor. Stanley makes a nice small tripod not would be positional Lowes czrries that one.

Pd service. Is MFR driver, P and B or I in back Volunteer service is driver and 2 B's. We have an ILS chase, so up to 3 in back.

I'm not sure about your area but I don't have mfrs that can transport. So you should be stabalizing them as best you can (loosen tight clothing, hose them off, help them into a position of comfort) while waiting for the ambulance that your LG partner already called. If you don't have them...

So whats the answer?

Here its 5 years of licensure not less than 3 as a Medic before you can apply to critical care school.

Medisave does engraving free on Littmann's if you buy from the. I think it's 10 if you don't buy from them. As far as personalizing you best bet is a tube cover. There are dozens of manufactures of covers. Some are actually value added, neoprene covers that will reduce some road noise...

I use GPS all the time. I push the search by voice button on my Droid. And say "Navigate to <address>" 2 seconds later it's there and we don't have to confuse Oak St and Red Oak Ct.

Just got accepted into a program starting in June. It's just over a year June - August, 8 Hours once a week. This is the first time my system has run a B-P class. They have been running an B-I then I-P back to back for several years. I'm told the paradigm shift is to eliminate learning...

www.chegg.com I've used them in the past with good results. There are also a number of places that allow you to "rent" books much like a redbox for college books.

Sounds to me like a legal precedent has been set. Slippery slope
