Yes, had calls like that before. You can paypal me my $10

Saran wrap is always a good choice. Post pics of her so we can further assess means of action.

Sounds immature to me. She should have asked first about moving your stuff. Calling a supervisor to you into trouble is childish. Sounds like she was causing the problem and wanted you in trouble for it.

Hormonal maybe?

Quick look makes me think of a Mobitz Type II.

I disagree, I see a QRS for each P wave.

Like others have said, it depends on your area. Police often respond to EMS calls, but not always. In my area, they are advised of EMS calls but are not required to respond to them, unless in certain circumstances. So, unless someone called and reported the person being pushed, most likely police would not come where I am at. Did the person that pushed them call 911? Did the person that got pushed call? In instances like this, if PD did come, they would probably NOT ride in the ambulance. They would meet the EMS crew at the hospital. If the person whom was injured committed the crime, then PD would more than likely ride a long.

I have the cool sunglasses for when I am not working with a patient, ie driving/passenger, outside, whatever. I do not wear them when working with a patient as I see it is unprofessional.

I wear a pair of safety glasses I got at the hardware store for like $2. They are for working with/cutting metal and wood. Good enough for me.

death is too good for those scumbags

I am going to start an online paramedic program. Do it at your own pace. Buy the book and I will post test/quizzes. Feel free to use your book and/or google to answer the questions. As long as your check clears, you will pass.

Look at it this way: If Tom Edison had not invented the lightbulb, our night time postings via computer to the internet, would be created by candle light.

Actually, the problem seems to have been corrected.

some one else surly would have invented it sooner or later

Would love to go and I will try to make it.

Very well written and informative research. When I went through medic school our lecture was brief on EMTALA, but the instructor (an MD/lawyer) made it clear it was important.

There were a few things I was not aware of before reading this. It might be dry subject matter, but I believe it should be taught and explained in detail for your own good ant the patients.

RIP... lived a long and wonderful life

Samuel L. Jackson does have a way with words, doesn't he?

he sure does... but someone obviously doesn't like his script lol

learn to do some of that 'freestyle walking' people do. it looks really cool and would be a badass way to get on scene

yeah that sounds about right. I was curious of their setup so I could maybe adopt some of it for our junior firefighters and new members, maybe even some of the old members. The normal run of the mill "training" night is not sufficient in my opinion. Volunteers need to be trained and knowledgeable just as much as the paid guys.

Make some printouts, give them simple homework, go over stuff during training nights, etc etc... we will see.

thanks

I'm sick of all these m f'n snakes on this m f'n forum!

I guess someone didn't see that movie.

publicity.. they got what they wanted

First link doesn't work, it wants me to login.

I like the idea though. Many people are more then capable of learning things on their own. A course like that would allow people who have jobs to learn at their own pace essentially. If they need help they can get it.

When I originally took my FF1 and FF2 it was an application with a few requirements. You needed to go through an essentials of firefighting course, a structural burn, hazmat r&i and I think cpr. For FF2 you needed FF1 and haz-mat ops. You didn't need any formal instruction or classes to take the exams. The written tests weren't that bad, basically right from the book. If you read them, you were fine. The practicals weren't too bad either. You just had to pay attention to follow the instructions to the letter. You would get failed for simple mistakes.

I'm in the midst of a hybrid fire course. It has all the didactic on-line and once a month skills are evaluated over 2 days. By no means is it an academy. It simply allows one to obtain their FF1 & FF2 certifications. I suppose if I wanted to work for a FD it might help me, but I would still have to go through their academy.

I'm just doing it for shits and giggles.

Oh ok.. that makes sense then got a link?

It might also help if the students were to explain why the ECG is doing what it is doing.

Yes and Yes

1. We MUST report if we suspect abuse, neglect, rape, etc etc. If we do not, we could be charged with a crime.

2. Fairly sure also must report suspected drug use and drugs being found. I would def report it. What if the patient says "he took my drugs" and I didn't report there were any? I don't need that headache.

Forgive the ignorance... but is there even an online fire academy? How could that be accomplished?

Doesn't matter what training you have. You must go through Florida's academy.
