  3. omg that was so wrong but i ended up playing this dang game for 20 mins thanks alot!
  4. You say you have no intentions of being ff but here in ny alot of the vol ff companys will acually put you threw the emt basic training or whatever training there department requires to be a memeber, but alot of them also require you at least take your ff one course and extractions ya know.... so I know if you join a vol company your not going to get just the basic training,, u'll prob get a insite of ff training as well. Unless you want to be just a paid medic or emt then I know rural metro offers a course for free but they have to accept you first or you have to pay for your own course which is around 700 bucks out here and find a service to apply to., out here in buffalo , ur options are Rural metro, Twin city ( tonawanda , amherst area only), Tri Comunity.... and few others I don't rember right now those are the paid companys but its mostly Vol out here.
  5. thats great but i read that along time ago.
  6. set up a meeting have a vote and majority rules,
  7. the diabetic women was that way because of her sugar and can make her combative confused, even lil crazy . its the sugar btw was it really low.
  8. first call female women 37 boy friend attempted to beat her to death.
  9. Most common calls out here are MVA's, ederly people falling or with chest pain. maybe the occasional crazy man running about that forgot to take his meds.
  10. I have heard of this vest and i think its a great invention. youtube link for it

  12. your wish is granted you find thos pics of terri and you live happily ever after. I wish I could fly , so i could poop on all the people that have craped on me, mostly men.
  13. i personaly think even though we check pulse with patient in cardiac arrest, but i think cpr should be continued unless the patient wakes up or says OW!! lol , i am stronge believer in continous cpr, keeping everything regular until u get to the hospital , even though i havent done continous i believe in it but i am scared id be wrote up for not checking fo a pulse so i do because thats how it works here were i live.
  14. is he still consider illegal even though hes dead now?
  15. i have a seizure problem myself and i have been dealing with it for years it is very hard to deal with somtimes, especially now that i work, i have to stay on medications and can never mis doses.
  16. Ive noticed alot of emts do it but not sure i under stand this post. sooo very lost>
  17. unitek was the one i considered when i was looking it looks great.
  18. My reponse to this would be if it didnt have to directly with work and didnt involve patient care and you got it off duty it shouldn't effect your cert any, unless it was more serious than a DUI, then the state might be notified . evrybody makes mistakes I do have to say being in EMS person should know better than drive under the influence anyway.
  19. Nasel intubation is used when a oral airway isnt possiable due to mouth truma , or if the patient has a gog reflex and wont take the oral airway , you have to becarefull with a nasel you can go in the wrong way it should never be forced in. if it doesnt go in the 2 or 3 time resort to bvm if you have to its better for patient safety in my eyes.
  20. Getting a paramedics at 18 or 19 would be pretty hard to do in new york state (where i live) .... and Is almost un heard of in alot of states because. Emt basic maybe but not paramedic most paramedic programs require 2 -4 years of schooling depening on how you go about getting it so highily doubt kids at 18 or 19 are full fledged paramedics they can however be emts basic and perhaps EMT-I , bUT ITS USUALLY 17 WHEN kid graduates high school unless they started kindergarden late or failed a few time, usually kids have been in college 1 or 2 years at age 18 -19 I was already a nurses aide and a emt basic at 19 so to be basic it can be done. and I graduated high shcool when I was 17. and I WAS living on my own had a car , apartment good job at the nursing home and vol at the fire hall. It was hard work but it can be done if your heart is in it fully. -heather-
  21. as wrong as this is its just dang funny everybody is telling how wrong it is , yea its wrong but is kinda funny
