Hey, everyone.

So, we have a pretty diverse forum, and I thought it might be fun to make a poll and see just how diverse a group we are. Please answer the poll and specify in the thread, if you're willing!

I'm a paramedic and I work for a third-service county-based 911 transport agency.

Currently Certified as a Basic, and have about 4 weeks until program completion of Paramedic school. I work for a small Private, for profit, 911 and IFT Agency. We also run a Cabulance/ wheelchair van service. We are unique in the aspect we also have a few contracts with other agencies to provide atypical EMS services.We hold a contract with the Forest Service to do Forest Fire Medical standbys, A contract with a COncert venue to do Concert standbys, and other event standbys. We have been known to respond to nursing homes to start IV's of do lab draws for the staff, Do legal blood draws for the Washington State Patrol, and we do Removals of bodies and transport to the funeral homes during nights and weekends.

I also am a Volunteer Fireman that works on a non transporting aid car.

This is a really cool idea Biebs.
