Hi all, I was wondering if anybody knew of a company that are hiring EMT-B. I need to find a job for the summer so if you know anywhere, please let me know thanks. B)

i was told nobody really has perfect 120/80 haha also, if ur unsure, ask someone else if they can do and ask what they get..

Hey, so I need to get a pair of pants and boots. I don't want/need anything expensive but I'd like it if they are comfortable ^_^ so what do u recommend and where should i get them from? thanks!

towards the end of my EMT class, we are required to do 10 hrs at a hospital. The good thing is, the program I'm taking classes with talked to the hospitals and got the times set for us. we just need to sign up for when we want to do it.

What do you guys think? I think rescue breathes are needed because the organs in our body need oxygen and compressions will only be pushing de-oxygenated blood through the body if breaths are not given every 30 compressions.

what books do you recommend to use to prepair for the exam? I'm currently thinking of getting the barrons book but not sure..what did you guys use?

I just started EMT-B class and the rescue squad I volunteer for got me a stethoscope. It's not the best but it works great. It's a Adscope and does what it should. I'm probably going to get a better one after I get into med-school. But for now, this is more than enough for me as a student who is...
