    Feds fine Ore. Mercy Flights over personal pronoun

    I know it's off topic, but what the heck. When my department needed a MedFlight bird for a critical priority 1 trauma patient, we were told the helicopter was not flying due to weather. The odd part was that (2) separate news helicopters were actively hovering over our scene taping for the...

    Polygraph and Background Check

    If he's interested in Boston EMS (which he mentioned twice), he doesnt have anything to worry about. Polygraphs are illegal in Massachusetts even for public safety positions. Psych exams are standard, but polygraphs are a no-go.

    WTF? Since when are two sloppy drunk sorority girls a waste of time? What f*ckin' planet are you on? :ph34r:

    Getting NREMT-B in a non NREMTB state?

    I'm in a non-NREMT state, and simply applied online through NREMT, submitted my state certification info, and scheduled my test. Simple.

    Why was he that close to an obviously tweaked out dude? Not bright...

    Mass. health department recommends 2 EMTs be suspended

    It seems, to me anyway, that the physician medical director probably only had the run sheet/report to go on, thus not reporting anything. The report says they continued CPR and transported. The problem comes in when the on-scene supervisor is contradicting the run sheet by saying that he saw...

    Trooper vs. Paramedic

    I'm a working (patrol division, and ATV unit member), fairly experienced (10 years this past January), proud, union, police officer who produces consistent, quality arrests, and despite what you may think, has a pretty good reputation for being an honest, hard working cop. I work for a city...

    Trooper vs. Paramedic

    You're missing my point. I'm not supporting THESE Troopers. I've already said that they were wrong. My point is that EMS people should not order around cops, (which is what was alleged by another poster) anymore than cops should be ordering around EMS people. I'm not a cop wannabe, and I'm...

    Trooper vs. Paramedic

    Wait...so when you say "do it, they do it." But "you work with your LE" when they have to "request things from you?" So you issue orders to the cops, and they have to "request" things from you? :rolleyes: In my state, EMS isn't allowed to shut the highway down, only police can control...

    Trooper vs. Paramedic

    I've been the cop handling crash scenes with multiple EMS/Fire units on scene. This isnt foreign to me. Any cop who starts :censored: like this is a jerkoff. But, to assume, as many here seem to, that cops are all useless, power hungry, trouble makers, isnt fair. Just as it wouldnt be fair to...

    Wanted: New partner

    I don't see where the OP identified the agency, or the people involved. Secondly, especially if he/she works for a government, municipal, or otherwise contracted EMS service, most if not all of the non patient related incident reports would be accessible to anyone through a public records...

    Trooper vs. Paramedic

    The fact remains that it's obvious here that many of the posters will argue for EMS whether or not they are right or wrong. Many seem to see no issues at all with anything the EMS people did. I suspect that this would remain the case in any situation where it is police vs. EMS. With that said, I...

    Should EMS be armed

    Cops are now routinely trained in offensive firearms use. To be specific, they are training essentially to hunt "active shooters." In other words, when the psycho gun nut goes to your local school, or mall, or workplace and walks casually through executing all of the people he feels wronged him...

    Should EMS be armed

    Exactly why it makes the comment worse.

    Should EMS be armed

    There is no reason for EMS to carry firearms. The fact is, without proper training (and sometimes even with it) your gun is more likely to be used against you than by you. Part of the reason that EMS generally get cooperation from sh!theads is because you're not a threat. You're not armed, and...
