Management in retail. Got tired of the same ole thing everyday and wanted to do something my kids would be proud of me for. Then once I realized I did not wanna be a shoe saleswoman forever, I hit college and never looked back!

Thankyou for finding the info!!!

This is why I like EJ's all at the head for everything

Thankyou for that, I was feeling weak but I am feeling better about it

Sorry so long, gotta get this off my chest. Ok so I got a speeding ticket last month. My first traffic violation ever, I was offered to take defensive driving class to keep it off my record. (Awesome!) anyways I took the class today, didn't realize it would be as good as it was. I would...

I wish we had RSI capabilities at my service

M Most I've seen done in the leg, which is farther from the heart, and going thru the bone it just seems like it'd be a slower route... I have seen a video on contrast dye being flushed thru a humeral IO and it got to the heart very rapidly!! I don't have a scientific evidence to back up my...

How many would rather IO someone or would you rather hit the jugular? I prefer external juge and feel as if the IO isn't as good for med administration. Any take on this?

Well just snatched another one from the jaws of death. Wait for it...... Diarrhea at 2 am he's had since yesterday. Vitals were good. I doubt insurance will pay this

You may be a female in EMS if miter nature sneaks up on you and you considered using an ABD pad in a pinch!!!

I can't compare because I've always worked rural, well a city of 10,000 and the surrounding small towns. I can tell you that what I've experienced is for the most part there are always an abundance of volunteer first responders that show up and know the area. They have helped us find locations...

We don't have RSI capability at our service yet. I really wish we did because I have had several situations where it was very much needed.

Haha I Haha I announce when I'm gonna poo to go ahead and just get it out in the open

I think you did great, vitals show the bagging was effective at the time. RSI and intubation would have delayed transport time, I think you did a great job.

Tr try 48's or 72's ugh

No this usually sets in after a year or so. If you are feeling this way already, get out now!!!! I am at 4.5 years and actually have an exit plan now and I couldn't be happier about it!!
