27 min - Thirty Seconds from Death – The Randy Hanifen Story (SAM 287)
Randy Hanifen serves as a Captain and shift commander with the West Chester Fire Department near Cincinnati, Ohio. At the time of his near-miss event, Randy was a firefighter riding up in the officer position on an engine. While operating on the second floor of a residential dwelling fire, a rapid change of conditions forced Randy and his partner to bail out a second-story window to save their lives. By Randy's admission, if he would have been in that environment for 30 seconds longer, he probably would have died. Randy explains what happened and shares some valuable situational awareness lessons.

54 min - A Near-Miss While Responding – The Brian Collins Story (SAM 286)
Brian Collins serves as a Battalion Chief with the Brentwood Fire Department in Tennessee. At the time of his near-miss event, he was serving as the company officer on an engine. While responding to a call, and while the apparatus was making a left-hand turn at an intersection, the door opened and, if not for wearing his seatbelt, Brian would have been ejected from the vehicle due to the centrifugal force being generated from the apparatus turning left. Brian explains how it happened and shares some valuable situational awareness lessons.

52 min - Life and Death Matters – Chris and Sam Adams Interview – Part 2 (SAM 283)
Skills to succeed in a world where there is no gray. IT'S NOT ABOUT HOW QUICKLY a paramedic can insert an IV or intubate a patient or victim in trouble. It's not about being able to recognize a heart attack from a panic attack. Until it is. Medical knowledge is important in responding to life-and-death emergencies for paramedics. But just as important are the qualities of paramedics that allow them to act decisively in the chaos of prehospital emergency medicine. And those qualities include character attributes and interpersonal skills that serve them well under pressure in a world where there is no gray. This book reveals the inside knowledge of what it takes to be the best paramedic: Understand the role of essential attributes such as humility, integrity, compassion, drive, and accountability. Practice the crucial interpersonal skills such as teamwork, assessment, and the ability to act. Put it all together by using principles of decision-making such as the ability to analyze and anticipate, and take a logical approach to every call. In this book, two veteran paramedics explain the skills for success in the field when seconds matter and judgement means everything. One section is devoted to developing the expectations and evaluation skills of the paramedic who trains others.
