I am joined by Mike Helbock, Faculty at Seattle/King County Resuscitation Academy and Former Division Chief of Training, MSO-4 at Seattle/King County Medic One, King County EMS, talking about High Performance CPR. Part I was all about the science behind current CPR guidelines. This is all about WHY we do what we do on SCA calls! Sit back and geek out with me! I know we all know what to do on CPR calls, but if you want to get better at the art of running codes and performing organized CPR, you will want to check this out.

A large commercial structure fire would challenge almost any department, but can you image if that was a school, that was the education center for three different communities, and first due was a rural volunteer fire department? I host the fire chief and IC from that fire, Dennis. We talked about general hurtles that rural EMS/Fire departments face and he breaks down the events of that fire. This is an amazing story, so sit back and walk through the response, challenges, humor and sadness around this big fire in a small community!

Whether you like it or not, fellow EMS/Fire providers look up to those around them! It may be the new guy, the student or even someone just watching you on the fire ground or EMS calls. I host Ryan with "Young Officers on Fire" and we talk about mentorship in EMS/Fire. Maybe you want to mentor others, have to mentor others, or you are looking to grow and want to be mentored! All of these things can be a little intimating. Hopefully this will get you started mentoring or successfully being a mentee!

Are you up for some self reflection and some "in your face" honesty from EMSconnect's CEO and ED Physician Dr. Travis Dierks about checking your ego at the door? Don't scroll past this just because I host a doctor, trust me! The two of us are pretty open and VERY honest about how to raise the professionalism bar. If you feel "attacked" on this episode, GOOD! This one is really meant to make you see yourself, not others! The second half, we share our struggles with burnout and try and give you as many tools as we can to prevent EMS burnout!
