Don't be worried about what they think. Just do you. If they put the time in they would succeed just like you do.

I'm not planning on bitching about things that will get me in trouble. I will not be posting my service or anything like that either.

Read the book, take notes on the book, ask questions, do research online about the stuff you learn to reinforce in your mind.

What is the best way to count patient respirations? I know to watch for chest rise and fall but some patients don't always have visible rise and fall.

I just landed my first job on an ambulance as a 17 year old EMT-B. I am starting in a few weeks and i was wondering if any of you had any advice that you could give me in regards to doing the best job possible.

Its called an EMT Assessment put on by the registry
-
im not saying its a bad idea, i was just wondering if any other services have different protocols concerning O2.
-
You take the same test as the NREMT but the NREMT will not put you on the register until you are 18. But Maine will issue you a license as long as you pass.
-
Maine allows you to be licensed under the age of 18 as long as you pass an assessment written exam created by the NREMT.
-
My area wants us to maintain SpO2 at 94% or higher, but we do not have to. Some paramedics in this area will not give oxygen for certain cases because of its harmful effects, especially when it comes to copd pt's.
-
In Maine EMT-B's can take a blood sugar, which helps us a lot but B's can't do any injections, they can only use oral glucose.
-
Has anyone had a service change its O2 protocol due to the finding that it can be harmful to patients in the long run?
-
In Maine you can be licensed as an EMT at 16 but you can't drive an ambulance until you are 18-21 depending on the service. You can take your paramedic course at 18 which is about two years long. I am 17 and have my EMT license.
