by dispatch they dispatch our ambulace not the fire trucks. and i would like to go to 60 personaly but my officers don't why i could tell you srry

I agree Great job Seth on the website i think we all know that you try your hardest and as for as myself i would like to said thankyou for doing what you do. I had a real question about Lung soundsthat no matter how many time i ask me friends they couldn't answer, well i came here in hope of geting an answer and i did. So this place is not just for Photo's it's a place where people who choose to be a person who helped he's fellow man (ie firefighter emt paramedic police officers) come to talk and share his/her storys and ask for help or just to come and hangout

Ok i'm trying to understand what i'm listen for when i listen to lung sounds. I mean when i listen to the L/S in my assasment i sometimes heard weezeing but most of the time they sound clear( like a ballon being blown up) but what about other stuff such as rails or wet crackles. What do they sound like? can some one give me an idea of what this L/S sounds like and maybe give me some others sounds i should look for. I'm only asking this to further my education as an EMT. And i'm glad to said that if i don't understand something that i will ask for help with it. any and all help will be greatly appreciated

I agree with alsfirefighter any centralized 911 system is a good system saddly i'm being dispatch by PD and i don't know if i want to go to 60 because who know the way around the village better than the PD who patrol it

hell yeah that what i'm talking about anthony is good but if i have time mamaroneck dinner 2eggs homefries sausages and toast for $6.00 last tme i went there

Rule number one of the EMT class Cover you A$$

looks more like a party were the boos at lol

yeah it has been try earlier this year but you can't blame us for trying lol and i thought it whould be alot more expensive than what they asking

no i did the same tihng in my EMT class also i thought you guys did it on the call it's self

No! Every chance i get on a call or back in HQ. I always ask if i can take a listen to the lung sounds, and i always listen to them in my assessment, and if it's an ALS call, and the medic can spare a minute to let me listen i try to remember what they sounds sound like. (ALSO as a side note i got my self a littmann Lightweight II SE from GALLS)

WOW they let you write them up back in the day that's cool one thing i do is i find a spot in the ER that has alot less noise then i sit down and think about the call than i start writeing it up

how much are we talking about here

1. i do take offense to that he's right us EMT that are 18 19 20 we try are best to do what we learn in the classroom and 2. Mamaroneck ems and larchmont vac are all volly without the paramedic Just as an FYI and also try looking thru the pennysaver or go to your local hospital and if there are ambulances there ask about how they got a job

What happen's when the Pt is unresponsive what whould you write for that? (I.E. KNDA (What i use in such a case) or unable to retrive) which one is more right to use in such a situation?

Thank you guys very much for all your help. Also special thanks to aimee, WAS, AND WOLF THANK YOU GUYS FOR THE WEBSITES
