Thanks, Capt, you pretty much hit it on the head. I've been with the private ambulance for about 1 year and my patient "assessments" were spectacular after 1 week but then it became same old same old for my remainder there. My skills and knowledge I spent a year on were gettings rusty or going to waste. I know now that I'd tell some one coming out of Medic school to go to a transport service that does 50/50 transport/911. Like I said, I don't doubt my knowledge but I'll definitely be picking up an EKG handbook to review that and go over my med lists.
All of the other input and advice is definitely greatly appreciated! I'll be coming back here to give you guys some reviews with my preceptor out in the streets.
Thanks again everyone for tips/advice.
