Seth, my first day on the job as an EMT was like this I come in for work ready for a day of orientation and they tell me to get on the truck and drive the medic to where he needs to go. That location is the scene of a adult cardiac arrest and we work this guy to the hospitals. We then catch two transfers back to back. The fourth call was to a major trauma on the interstate - Class I trauma, closed head injury, massive internal injuries, kids involved and lots of blood. The final call of my 24 hour shift was to the scene of a infant non-breather where we were unable to get the baby back. That day nearly was my last day in EMS. I stuck with it, you can too. PM me and we can chat. Everyone of us on this site have had the kind of week you are having right now. By the way, my second shift I ran 2 calls for the entire 24 hour shift. We just were never in the right place at the right time to catch the calls.
