    Training Boy Scouts

    I am not involved with Boy Scouts. I have been asked to do a 1 hr presentation which will only allow time for very basic information which is why I thought a coloring/activity book would be a good resource for them to keep and learn additional information on their own. I raised 4 kids and...

    I believe that they should on behalf of the patient. Granted, if the patient doesn't survive, they will never know the pain we put them through because we weren't compatible with the ambulance service and had to pull the pads & their chest hair off so the ambulance can put their pads on...

    I work for a service that sells the Philips Heartstart. I am also on a volunteer QRU that needs to replace our LP 500 (too old to reprogram) and have reviewed the Welch Allen AED10 that has pediatric capabilities. Physio has a LP1000 that is promoted as replacing the LP 500. While all of them...

    Training Boy Scouts

    I am looking for a coloring/activity book that will be age appropriate, but I'm thinking I might have to design my own. I will be taking one of our ambulances with me. They have requested a 1 hr presentation that includes choking, bleeding, animal bites, falls, poisoning, what to do in an...

    Beware! Ice On the Road!

    Icy roads & snow are 2 of the things that keep us in business from Oct thru April in MN & ND! Feb 2007 had 3 rollovers, 3 days in a row, in the same area on the Interstate.

    Practical Testing

    I have the sheets (I am also an EMS Instructor in ND). I can go through the steps during practice (or on a call) and pass with flying colors, but for some reason when that tester is standing there with their clipboard and writing as I'm taking the test, the nerves kick in and I miss critical...

    Practical Testing

    Some other people from this area said I should go out and get drunk the night before, then they were so hung over the next day they went into their testing and didn't even think about what they were doing - all they wanted was to get done, go home and cure their hang over.:wacko:
