To be honest the only real thing that I hate about EMS, is the patient refusals. There are many times that People call ems for their selves ,and then when the Ambulance gets there they change thier mind "because they dont want to have to wait in the ER". I mean seriously. If you call ems, you should go to the hospital. just my input.

Becomming and emt was the best thing i've ever done. People in my family thought I was crazy for taking the class, they all thought i was going to fail, but I passed They ask me why I got involved with ems and i just tell them, at the end of the night, when I put my head to the pillow, I'm happy. Even If I just saved one life.

Yes Hazing was a bad thing, some places it was acceptable yes, but it was wrong. Peole were getting seriously injured even killed just to be part of the "in crowd". It's wrong in every sense. BUt your alternative to hazing seems to be a good one, you could use something like they used to American Pie Beta House, they had a "pledge board" and before you became a full member you had to complete the tasks of 50 things.. that seemed like a good idea to me.
