Have you considered talking to someone through your EAP? Its confidential and allows you to talk to someone who is a neutral figure. But I agree with everyone else with continuing to do your job and cya... She will get hers in the end.

Hope you have a great 4th of July! Be safe!

Tattoo's People who get "Paramedic" type tattoos before they even become a medic always amaze me. I can see why it may give you motivation, but seriously??? I know several people that have gotten them done and are no longer in our Assoc. Degree Paramedic program. :P And I know a few that...

Hey there! I was wondering if there were any Winston-Salem Medics or Savannah Medics on here that could give me some ideas about their jobs in those cities, and living there! Likes / Dislikes? I will be finishing with my Assoc. Degree Paramedic program May 2011, I am officially half way...

Thank you Cory! Photography is something I enjoy alot. Hope you have a fabulous 4th!

Heard a disptacher refer to the patient's condition as "Done fell out"!!! Only in WNC. lol :)

I know a couple of patients that can actually self induce urination, but can not seem to master the oral trauma. :)

Maybe just a teeeeny bit! lol.

Oh I highly doubt it would be fun. But I like it because it can be used for lots of other stuff too! You know, the times when you wish you had a rope...lol.

And if you ever have to use it, they replace it for free!

I saw these on Facebook the other day and I have to say that I am very interested in them and felt they would be a good thread to post. These could be used in a wide variety categories in EMS, and just seem smart! :rolleyes: http://www.survivalstraps.com

Thanks you all, I appreciate the feed back! I am just looking at testing for the State Intermediate for now, its not a requirement to have National Registry in my area. I agree that there is no harm in taking it, but I have heard that it is very hard test.

Congrats! Three more semesters for me and I will be done! :)

Hey dear! I am doing great, school is awesome and I am learning so much! Whats new with you?

Hello y'all, I am just wanting some thoughts and opinions on whether I should test for my Intermediate while still in school or just wait and test for my Medic. I am debating because of the whole "Do I want to work EMS while in school?" thing. I have a great job and insurance at a local...

First off, I am sorry to hear of your troubles, and it may be hard to see it right now, but you WILL be better off in the end. Second, it may be cliche, but you can do anything you put your mind to. You are still at an age where you can find a career you love. Have you looked into "shadowing"...
