  1. fiznat,

    I work in the northwest for AMR and our contract is ok here in our operation but still needs a bit of work. The best contract held by AMR emploies in this area is from King county, Washington They are represented by the teamsters. I like it because it has one rate of pay no more diffrent rates for diffrent shifts. I dont have a copy rediely avaible to me but I would start there.

  2. We use them frequently. We call them SPRNT units ( pronounced sprint) Single paramedic response non-transport. They work well for the rual areas that run skeleton crews.

  3. While in high school I wanted to become a MD. I had the grades I even graduated HS early and was excepted to several State and private colleges. I was right on tract. However at the end of my last year in highschool I attended a national youth leadership fourm on medicine. During the time I spent there I was given the opportunity to shadow several different MDs, DOs and PAs, while shadowing and ER doc I was talking to a paramedic and he offered to take me out on a ride along. After getting clearance to do so I rode with him for the last 8 hours of his shift, during that time I realized that That was what I wanted to do. I didn't need to become a MD. I have no regreets as of yet I love my job even though I despise my company and I am getting ready for medic school.

  4. today was just one of those days it wasent worth chewing through the leather restraints. I think I need to put that on the celling of my ambulance above the cot
