Congrats on the license!
I don’t have “hobbies” I’m developing a robust Post-Apocalyptic skill set.
Thank you!
It is, of course, obvious that speed, or height of fall, is not in itself injurious ... but a high rate of change of velocity, such as occurs after a 10 story fall onto concrete, is another matter.
So some surprising news. It seems i may be able to get into the February medic class after all!

Good news! The only advice I can offer, is when it comes to Cardiolody, break everything down by rate and regularity.
Then you're only choosing between a couple rhythms.
Well. Signed up and paid for the first parts of medic school! Medic school here I come!!!

Glad to hear it Twitchy! Sounds like things are moving along nicely. Great Job!
We are getting into EKG's more in depth now, and this advice is pretty much golden... It simplifies it so much!
In other news, we started to do our first intubations on mannequins today!

I pulled 6 years as EMT-A and NR-EMT-A... I think now days, they call someone with these certifications "driver", but in the mid 80's Paramedics were not that common on an all volunteer rescue squad.
I was most proud of my NR cert! That test was not easy!
Congrats, and study, study, study!

Hey, Currently I am the glorified ambulance driver... At least AEMT's and EMT-A can start IV's

Not in my day:
EMT-A (Ambulance) - Everything but IVs and Cardiac & intubate & EOA
EMT-ST (Shock Trauma) Everything but Cardiac & intubate
EMT-C (Cardiac Tech) Everything
EMT-P (Paramagic) Everything above, plus a few more things, plus there patch glows in the dark and they can part water.
