Best advice I have is can the union. I haven't seen one that ultimately helped. They create a bunch of inflexible rules that does little to benefit the worker and nothing for patients at all. If you need a union where you work find some where else to work. I see ads for medic jobs all over the country. If your employer doesn't treat employees with respect and a competitive wage there are others that do. Without employees they will not stay in business too long. Ask the supervisor how many 24 hrs shifts in a row he can handle on the front line.

They are not used in my service we have LMA's as a back up for a failed RSI ( haven't used one yet). I would not want to remove any patent airway that is working. Why tempt fate.
