I I had a seizure, this is in Deltona, FL, for some reason the cops came. NEVER before had the cops showed up before the EMT in the past. Now when my dad was dying of cancer and I was taking care of him on hospice. We've had to call 911, There was a DNR. and he was on hospice. MY dad was my world, at the time my mom was in a mentally Facility because she had a break down watching him die. He was diagnosed with cancer and in 10 months died. I was upset telling them to take him to the hospital. He didn't need to be resuscitate anyways. I never threaten her or got violent in any way. WE got into an argument. she told me "she would fix" me. I didn't know what that meant. After I calmed down, remind you 4 days prior on Thanksgiving 22 my brother in law of 25 years died in our home, they came up from polk county n at 330am he was found unconscious pronounced dead of an overdose sometime later, before they took my dad to hospital in tears I apologized.(6 days later my dad died) Next day after seizure, I had psychosis. Never had before in my life. I had an addiction to pills for 15 years but have been clean 8 years now. since 2018. Volusia cty police showing up first. There officers need to be trained on how to handle people having seizures and psychosis. I have no memory until two days later waking up in Halifax mental part. When drug test came back clean again urine and blood, they were ready to release me. The police were violent with me, my family even trying to tell them. They lied to Halifax why I was being backer acted, they treated me awful. HOW CAN I FIND out why Volusia police comes out when 911 is called for me?

And the good thing is you can buy all of them at reasonable on *BUSINESS NAME REMOVED*

There are a couple of options you might have. 1. take a job at a local ER as a tech or a paramedic 2. work a transfer truck 3. Move to another state - if you can. Minnesota gives their licenses out just for applying. But that's a big move. 4. Find a volunteer service you can help out at. This might be the only response you get from this site. If you move to missouri let me know, I can point you in the right direction of the services to look at on the west side of missouri

Hello, It seems like there has been a couple of posts here over the last couple of days or weeks. Honestly you would be better served by finding a facebook group or other group as before the posts since june, the previous post was a year ago. This used to be one of most popular EMS Related discussion group but facebook sort of put this group out of commission because the responses were not instant. You won't get many responses to your posts if any at all. Sorry.

I am currently attending an EMR Course with the Fire Department. We take our FISDAP on the 6th of next month. I have been cramming in preparation for it, to the point that I get pretty stressed by it. I have to just back away from my studies for a bit, then hit it again when I clear my mind, Lol. I am my own worst critic, regardless of my score - I should have done better, Dang it!! No - I'm not perfect, but I strive for perfection daily.

Yes, you need a Driver CPC to keep your HGV licence valid. If you haven’t been driving, you’ll need to complete 35 hours of periodic training every 5 years. Check your CPC status online and take any necessary courses to stay compliant.

I think that would depend on your State regulations. In the UK yes absolutely - as long as it falls within your normal scope of practice it’s OK to keep a BVM and use the skill in an off duty scenario. I. America - who knows, suggest you talk to other local EMTs

Almost 17 yrs ago, at the age of 23, I drove drunk. I have had zero citations since then. Am I unemployable as an EMT?

Hello, Let me start by saying that I am not an EMT or Paramedic, although I would love to be one. However, I do own and operate an emergency medical transport business where I am on call 14 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days of the year. My company specializes in emergency transport of blood and human organs to hospitals, medical facilities, and labs across 4 different states. I enjoy this line of work because I take part in saving lives. Although I am not an EMT or paramedic, I do consider myself and my company as part of the EMS family. Just to give you an example of my day, a hospital is in need of blood supply for critical ill PT. They phone the request for blood to a blood bank which my company is subcontracted to, I then get a call for a STAT delivery to that hospital. I run lights and siren to make that delivery. This is a typical day for me not necessarily every call. Some calls are ASAP calls which don’t require lights and sirens, other calls can be for medical equipment. Sometimes I also do donor recovery runs where time is essential where I have to donor organs to an airport or medical facility. Nevertheless, I draw a lot of attention from police and other’s because it’s something they have never seen before. Yet, there are well established organizations that have done this for years like NORA. I’m in the process of getting my vehicle registered as an Emergency Vehicle in PA where my company is based out of. This process can take 8-10 weeks. I have taken CEVO-5 training along with other certifications. I have a commercial driver’s license class A and have driven commercial vehicles for the past 6 and half years. I also have a medical background and education. I used to be a medical assistant where I assisted in out patient surgery, I have a Bachelor’s degrees in medicine, and a Master’s degree in Accounting. I hope that you welcome me because I can learn a lot from you all here.

Hello! I was wondering if anyone on this forum would be able to help me out : ). I am from Australia and am interested in training as an EMT in the US and would further like to work as an EMT for 6 months. However, I’m finding it difficult to determine what visa this is possible on/if it is possible. I understand that I would probably need a student visa for the training, it is the work visa that I am struggling to understand. Any information would be incredibly helpful! Thank you!
