EMS Personel.?


Question:
I'm sick of everyone hatin EMS providers.we are like nothing to you untill we have to pick your sorry *** up after you fell down drunk or some **** like that.
You watch these TV shows like SAVED and let me tell ya that really isnt what EMS is about so give us some credit man. We spend hours and hours training and away from our families jsut to help people we dont know. EMS isnt a job its a life. No one joins a squad just for the hell of it. its gotta be in your blood
Am I right? or what.

Answers:
Bravo.I am a nurse and married to a EMT..we met while working at a hospital and he would bring patients in to me..I truly appreciate what you do..I like it when you bring the patients in nice and neat and bundled up..folks don't realize how many times you lay your life on the line caring for patients..they don't see you hanging upside down in a over turned car, managing an airway and providing C-spine precaution in the middle of a winter storm cutting yourself on the broken glass to save someones life..Those that don't appreciate you shouldn't be so quick to dial 911 for your help..let them take a shift ride with you and see what your day is like..they would get their eyes full..and further than this you are paid horribly and won't get rich being a EMT or Paramedic..but God Bless You..your reward will be in heaven because you public don't thank your enough on earth.I love you folks and support you 24/7.

i say thank you to all ems personal. the unit where i worked was right by the ems "station" in the hospital and they were all great people, cooked a turkey dinner on thanksgiving and invited all of the staff on my unit.not to mention they saved my dad several times. thank you thank you thank you!

your right . . . but we are not completely hated . . .every now and than you run into someone that i greatful for your services. . . I appreciate the hours and hours spent by people like yourself in obtaining the education to become an EMS.

I have never had to use the services, but I am so glad you're there if the need arises.


I say you are damn right, and way underpaid for your training and qualifications. Not to mention you have to keep your mind sharp and clear, because you are not only driving in a hurry, but getting there to save someones life. I am thankful that people have the discipline to make something out of themselves that help a lot of people.. Thanks.
