[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are mostly picking up and dropping off [/quote] Do you live in Mayberry? Over four years here is what our EMT child dealt with as an EMT: Stab wounds GSWs Amputations Crush injuries Full body burns Suicide attempts and successes Horrific MVAs Child abuse Elder abuse Medevac TBIs So many overdoses I guess it depends where you work.[/quote] Yes, and the care and interventions the EMTs actually are able to give is very limited. They are still mostly picking up and dropping off- regardless of injury. Their ultimate goal is to get you to hospital as quickly as possible, not save you in the back of a vehicle- they cannot. [/quote] It’s both and sometimes time isn’t on a patient’s side. What a weird thing to discredit. There are far more mundane clinical opportunities, but I don’t discredit those as all are a part of the system and each play a role. [/quote]
