Caduceus

Does anyone think it would be appropriate if next time I am in Seattle to stop by a MedicOne base and ask some questions? I don't know how the big city departments operate and if this would be allowed.

*shrugs* I am a different person than when I first signed onto this forum.

@paramedicMike So basically all you are saying is that if you want to lead a happy life, use Fahrenheit?

Hm. Not only have I learned about Medic One but I have learned not to be arrogant in EMS. Thanks guys.

Welcome Ralphie, don't let them get to you.

Get the hell outta here, you bourgeois!

Ahem. . .um what?

Thanks for the advice Mike. I'm considering majoring in paramedicine w/ a minor in biology rather than just going through a certificate program to help me get in.

Thanks for the info, Mike. All in all I know it's competitive but I think I can get in. It's cool you work in Seattle, I'd like to work there someday if the cost of living wasn't over the roof.

Welcome. I'm the person everybody bullies. //shot

As the daughter of a prison guard, I support this. One more off death row!

@IrishEDP That's with the fire department as some kind soul explained to me, I'm looking at KCM1 which is a separate thing that you don't have to spend years as an FF. All in all thanks for the advice guys.

Yeah, I like his version better. Maybe that's just cuz I'mma girl tho. . .

Looking for help from a Medic One EMT-P. . . I live in Washington state and someday I would really like to work with Medic One in Seattle. The problem is I don't live in King County now, and it seems like Medic One is pretty selective in who they hire and tend to choose students who have always lived in King County. . .? I plan on getting my EMT-B as soon as I grad. high school, and get three years of volunteer work under my belt before applying. But since I am fifteen now, what are some things that I could do NOW that would look good on an application later?

Heh. . .

This weekend all I did was burst randomly into my brother's room and start singing this song. I know the image is as burnt into his mind as it is mine.

We are really moving forward with this. I can't wait to see what we will do next: http://3dprintingindustry.com/2013/06/05/3d-printed-bronchi-splint-breathes-life-for-a-child/

Sorry for your loss Doc, that's tough. Thinking of you guys.

You have fun with that metamucil, Doc.

Have a good time here.

@Mateo Yeah, I was kinda emotional. :/ I did wait a time to let things settle in myself before I talked to her. All in all it turned out okay, just some trust needs rebuilt and actually earned. Not only do I use it with that friend, but I am more careful with who I trust now when I go out places. I make sure I have at least one reliable person in my group. That last paragraph was great. I really appreciated that, all in all, it is difficult to prove to people that yes I am mature enough to at least be considered for it. I appreciate adults with views like you, you mean the world to us kids. Thanks for the reply.

Sorry, but the limited wisdom of my fifteen-year-old my mind can only look up in awe at the cumulitive knowledge of my elders here. Thus the "old" comment.

I read a good one. Dial 911 by Joan E. Loyd and some other guy. . .it was kinda old so yeah like ERDoc said with the MAST pants etc. . .but it was good.
