I know I haven't posted jack diddly on these forums, but... I passed the written portiion of NREMT-Paramedic today 2/28/12... I'm stoked!

If I don't have to take them off I don't. If there's no worry of spinal precautions I try to remove them without the cut. If the pt is conscious I usually ask them how attached they are to the item of clothing I am thinking of cutting. Most people are more worried about their health than their clothes but if they ask me not to cut I try everything I can do not to. If its unavoidable I explain why. Most people understand.

by reading all the press clippings a hero and lifsaver all fall under the description of FIREFIGHTER......... or that is the impression that is forwarded....all i can say is what a bunch of wankers to refer to them selves in such a way....talk about reading you own press. can ambos save a life.....my bloody oath...ie narcan and IPPV for a opioid overdose are you a hero for doing so....only in the eyes of the family members of the one you saved (and the person in particular) should you refer to yourself as a hero.....not on your nelly.......thats conceited and reserved for firefighters what makes a hero........google either the Victoria Cross or the Medal of Honour and see what does what makes a life saver.........a confectionary company or a person that saves a life....not bloody rocket science.
