Haven't posted in a while because nothing particularly exciting has been happening in these last few months...really.
I work in a fairly rural system, so going an entire shift without a call isn't unheard of.
I am considering applying for a part time job at another service. I have a few choices.
One service is somewhat familiar to mine, but with a Community Access Hospital as it's Medical Resource Hosptial.
One service is the most busy in the area by far, but in terms of protocols is fairly behind the times(calling Medical Control for benzos for a patient actively seizing).
One service is a Community Hospital Based 911/Intercept Service. The Paramedics work in the ED when they aren't on calls.
In terms of possibilities I guess things are pretty varied. I know folks who work at all three services, so I guess we will see what happens.
I've probably lost 30 pounds since finishing Paramedic School, finally able to do the things outside I like doing and not eating crap all the time probably has something to do with that.
Still haven't worked a code yet as a medic, but I'm sure there will be plenty of those.
