I've been a medic for 4+ years. Frequented ems forums (this site and others) when I was a new medic but haven't been online for quite some time. I worked 3 1/2 years at a busy and troubled inner city FD as a single role paramedic (no fire suppression) and now i work at a rural hospital based ambulance district. Our closest level 1 is over an hour away by ground with good road conditions, no traffic, and the EMT driving the rig hard. I consider myself an experienced and knowledgeable paramedic but also am grounded an know the limitations of our profession and the training we receive. I am confident in my abilities, but because of my experiences I stay humble in knowing that I don't know it all. Between long distance transfers of critical patients (when flying is not an option) and working in the ED around the nurses, I have come to realized just how little medical knowledge paramedics have. I like being "in the know" so i've enrolled in a semester long critical care program that starts in January. I'm sure i'll have questions that come up (and yes of course i'll ask the instructors my questions but I like to hear from multiple sources too) so i'd love to hear from any critical care guys/gals or flight medics out there that might have any suggestions for me. Also, i'm pretty sure I want to start focusing on becoming a flight medic. We have 3 air ems services in the area and i've started applying with them.
