When people see a blue shirt that says EMS STUDENT in large letters under a cool star of life logo their first thouts is wow this person has no idea what they are doing get the hell away from me. i Guess people dont really understand that I will be the guy walking through your door at two in the morning when your emergency turns into my emergency.
this vital point is missed by many and thus here i am two weeks before the end of my semester with not all of my objecves done yet i have done more clinical hours then any other person in my class. the other day i actualy got the line from a nurse, well she has a lot of hospital connections so i better start this iv, the lady had veins the size of a bloody subway tunnel I told the lovely nurse in centeral maine medical center, well how am i supposed to get any pratice in? and my response was well she is the wife of the CEO in the hospital... lets be honnest that dosent mean shit to me. I dont cae of your the bloody president of the united states your getting treated the same way in the back of my ambulance. so if the ceo is in the back of my truck... does that mean i should be lik ewoah... let not give her an IV because she has connections. my point being as a student i need to learn, i need to get hands on time and you are not going to let me then back the fuck off and dont let me use ou as a clincal site. dont ask just be like HI we have a student here who is goign to be starting your iv today. or at least let me introduce myself so i dont have to look like a total idiot.
the good news is the Unity Ambulance is now an offical proctor for me for just IV pokes, why this couldnt have happened from the start is beyond me
intill later
