Let me just say as a "newbie" to the site and a newbie paramedic student, so far I have found that this site is a wonderful place!!!

I got my EMT-B a few months ago and just started paramedic school last week. I live in Omaha

Hi, my name is Kathy, I'm currently a MA and phlebotomist, and I am looking into the EMT training classes, and then possible the paramedic training. Any one have any advice?

Hello,

I am Ray, and I'm an EMT-P in central Kentucky.

Got started with a fire dept. in L. A.

(lower Alabama), but moved up here for family.

My advice to both of the two new emt's above is to work in the field as an emt for a year or so before jumping straight to being a paramedic, you can be the book smartest person in the world, but until you do it at least once in the real world, you won't know what you can or can't handle.

I've been a lurker here for a while, and really enjoy reading others experience, hope I will be able to contribute.

Hi!

I'm from Northern Alberta, taking my EMT-A in the new year. I did some ride alongs with my younger sister (a Paramedic student) last year, and got hooked! (Is that good or bad? haha)

Anyhow, hello!

I didn't introduce myself because even I don't want to read 100 posts of

"welcome to the city"

But I will say that I've really enjoyed this site. I was surfin' around another site for a while and

then I started to count the posts.

(topic) who hates everything 18,361 posts

(topic) scenario 200 posts

and I thought this isn't what I'm looking for.

This site has great topics, especially for those us new to the field.

Students, Taking the test and Scenarios are my favorites.

The spell check is handy also....

Thanks!

David
