Get a pt that isn't smelly

Crap...I've done' over half the things on that list. I'm more than halfway to fulfilling my DNR.:rofl:

 

[Joe]

There's other stuff but im pretty sure it's not appropriate to post haha

1. I'd love to fly either rotorwing or fixed wing as a medic, in that order.
2. TEMS is a goal of mine and I'm training for my agency's next TEMS tryout/selection process.
3. I'd love to do an overseas job at some point.
4. CCP-C
5. FP-C
6. I'd love to do Critical Care IFT full time or as a side gig eventually, preferably in pediatrics. At this point I love 911 but I know eventually I will need to switch it up.
7. ALS ski patrol
8. I'm not super excited to work for an FD but there are a few ALS transporting FDs around me that would be awesome to work for just for the fact of their location, salary and their schedule allowing for me to work flight or 911 in a busier system PRN.
9. Been contemplating PA but not at the top of my list at this point. I feel like saying this around here may be considered treason h34r: from some of the attitudes and opinions I have heard about PAs.
10. RRT crossed my mind as well but I think I'd get bored pretty quickly.

I did the first back in 2005. That was a good time. I've turned down two since then... I really need to jump on the next one.

Been to Haiti. Got the tshirt. I'm actually going back. The disaster isn't new, but they still need huge amounts of help.

And ski patrol sounds fun for a day. After that, no thanks.

I don't.. Lol

To hop a medivac as a provider

Never on an Air Ambulance. For BLS Flight Rescue: fun until the Crew Chief points at your and says, "We might have to short haul and you are are the most senior medical provider with short haul qualification; get your harness!" Thank god FFs often jump the gun when requesting short-haul.

I think the only thing I want is, work for L.A. City or Ventura County. Who doesn't?

I don't. Who wants to be stuck behind the border when we give SoCal back to Mexico?
