So I got to thinking, my full time partner and house mate has been posting on here for years. I continually read what he has to say and take things to heart. With him being in EMS for many years and myself new to the career I thought I might write about how I see things.
About myself, im 24 and an EMT Advanced. Just got my advanced back in March and been in EMS for little over 1yr now. I started my EMS career on a transport truck for a private company. The months that I spent toating grandma around town really helped me learn a lot about EMS and how to handle things. Dont get me wrong I am still learning new and exciting things every day.
Once I finally moved up to a primary 911 truck for my hometown, it was a real eye opener. Ive spent my entire life in this city and still find new streets all the time. I havent really seen to much of the terrible stuff. Like they say 90% is BS and 10% is actual emergencies. Last week my partner and I assisted another crew on a bad motorcycle accident. This was really my first bad accident I have been to. We occasionally get a few good ones but never anything serious like this. I really dont want to go into detail about it. But afterwards I looked at my partner and jokinly told him he is like Obi Wan Kenobi to me. He always has advice and I always take it to heart.
So with all this being said, I thought it might be a little interesting to write about how I see things. And heck it gives me something to do on the slow days.
