Anyone have further information on this story? I found this using a Google search: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/ny_crime/2010/01/21/2010-01-21_emts_accused_of_ignoring_dying_pregnant_woman_eutisha_rennix_back_on_job_after_3.html Seems that their suspension is over, still working, no charges laid, but a criminal investigation is still ongoing.

Question: Were these two wrong for their behavior? Answer: You don't know. I don't know. I'm a little disappointed in many of the comments against these medics. How can you judge someone by reading what bystanders have stated to a news paper article. There are three sides to every story: His side, her side, and the truth. There are a million different things that could have happened, and until you hear the medics in questions side, the investigators side, and the bystanders side (not from a news paper article) only then will you have the truth. This is a tragic story. I truly hope that the two medics are exonerated as I want to believe that all paramedics/EMTs are professionals, but if it turns out what they did in the article is true, then they will get what they deserve.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Apply to other areas as well. Chances of getting hired in the TO area right out of school are slim to none. Work up north or in a small community, even if only for a year. That experience alone will get you miles ahead of anyone right out of school. I know many people that have worked a year or 2 in the north right out of college, and that experience landed them FULL TIME PERMANENT jobs in Barrie, Toronto, Durham, Niagra, peel, and ottawa. cheers
