Confessions of an EMS Newbie

Ep 27 Let the Testing Begin

Listen Later

[audio:27_LetTestingBegin.mp3] (46:53) Ron had two tests and his last clinical this week. Pretty much nothing but testing from here on out. We talk a little about EMT Intermediate 85/99.

Learn at what point Ron’s last patient asked, “Did I get a student?” And all about his injury prevention program he’s working on.

We follow up on the Tazer vs. GSW discussion with feed back from someone who’s experienced both. This leads to how much does and IO really hurt? And a discussion of the various IO devices.

Listener Questions
