    Literally like new, I just got this bag a few weeks ago. It's been in my truck ever since - I actually put it on the ambulance maybe 5 times, and it has never been exposed to the elements. I like it, it's just slightly too big for what I need. They go for $ 140 new plus shipping. I will...

    Worst names for an ambulance service...

    around here, we have..... the standard, interchangeable "MedStat", "First Call", "Pro-Med", and "Lifeguard". With those you could basically mix and match the first and second words of each for hours of fun of creating your own name ........ex. "FirstMed" or "LifeStat". The one that might trip...

    Partner got mad at me. Was I wrong?

    On one of my clinicals, I was told "Our job is to be kind to people, with a little medicine thrown in." You did nothing wrong. Your partner is possibly a jerk.

    Bonnaroo Medics

    2011? Any word yet on the 2011 Bonnaroo medical schedule? I turned my stuff in weeks ago, but haven't heard anything yet. On a side note, is it worth the heat and mud and bugs and mosquitoes and crowds and conditions for what? $ 10 an hour? ..........just askin'

    Tornado region help

    I'm about 2 hours away from the hard hit portions of Georgia and Alabama. I'd love to go down a couple days and help out with some medical needs. I'm not yet a member of DMAT or MRC, and I can't find an outlet or organization rounding up people to do what I want to do. I am National Registry...

    Uncomfortable moment

    He could always take the course for the knowledge, but practical skills would be challenging, if not impossible (chest compressions, lifting and cot operations, etc.). He might be able to perform in a EMD position doing communications.

    What do you carry 24/7 while on or off the job?

    I am a hybrid EMT/Firearms Instructor. Warms my heart to see so many rational, law abiding, safety minded folks in EMS who aren't willing to sacrifice their 2nd Amendment rights.

    Post the # your test stopped at, and if you Passed/Failed

    took EMT-Basic this morning. Test stopped at 70 questions, and I passed. Pretty sure I got the last question correct.
