Hello, My name is Max and I just wanted to say thank you for taking time out of your day to read this and in the future answer any questions I might have. I am still waiting to see if I am accepted into the EMS academy here put on by the Cleveland Clinic. I have plenty of questions and no experience in any medical setting so we shall see how it goes. A brief history about me I grew up in the country and was raised on a mini farm by two amazing parents, went to school and graduated toward the top of my class, decided that college wasn't for me which is a blessing and a curse, worked as and electrician for 5 years and got bored with it then met my fiancée moved to Cleveland and worked odd jobs trying to make it ....so i decided to go with paramedic because I have always been interested in the field. I'm not really the type of guy to sit behind a desk and be content or even really work a mindless job in an office,factory,store, etc. So putting that into consideration with my interest in EMS,Firefighting and Law enforcement I figured EMS was the best option for me although I'm going into it pretty much blind. I do have some clue as far as medical terminology and such from my mother.. she was diagnosed with RA, Psoiratic Arithritis and Fibro when I was young so I picked up on a few things..also my aforementioned Fiancée was going to nursing school which changed to pharm tech after clinicals and I help her study regularly. Anyways thanks again for reading also any and all suggestions comments or just hellos are welcomed completely ..thanks again and sorry for any grammatical errors...
