Every EMT or paramedic who works out in the field knows that a fair percentage, some might say the majority, of our patients, don’t actually need to go to the emergency room.” Is it safe for this patient to go to urgent care? Can they get a prescription written for a new medicine or refill an existing prescription?

Objective: Paramedics are exposed to significant job-related stressors, which have been exacerbated by the pressures of the COVID-19 pandemic. Given the essential role that paramedics play in the health system, it is imperative that we understand how their health and wellbeing are affected by this range of stressors.

Article by Karlee De Monnin CASE During my first ambulance ride-along as a fourth-year medical student on an EMS elective, my unit responded to a call for abdominal pain. The paramedics assisted the patient into the ambulance. I was focused on exploring the truck as it was my first time transporting a patient in an ambulance.

Many years ago I was asked if I wanted to be an expert witness/consultant in court cases involving paramedics. One of the reasons I declined was because I wrote a blog about being a paramedic that included descriptions of calls where things didn’t go as they do on TV (or as the public might expect). The ambulance responded.

As paramedics, whilst we often take great offence at being called ambulance drivers, the question is, when it’s our turn to drive, what exactly is it that we are providing? Do we fully engage in shared patient care with our attending partner, or do we switch off so that we can simply drive the ambulance and take it easy?

When I tell people I work as a paramedic, they automatically relate to the job as being stressful. They often relate to stress as a paramedic from the calls we get, the things we see. I love being a paramedic and did not want to give that up, so I worked various jobs on the side. That is true. That is also true. Absolutely not.

We have a large number of graduate paramedics starting with Ambulance Victoria this year, so it’s probably a good time to revisit a topic that seems to receive surprisingly little attention in an industry that relies so heavily upon it. This means that wherever possible the closest ambulance is sent to high priority cases.

I can feel the hunger for paramedicine again, the drive to learn, to push myself towards the goals I set back in 2009. I prayed the ambulance would go faster. I remembered his words in the back of the ambulance to me, “All I wanted was to get home to my family.” His face was so pale when we arrived at the hospital.

In this article, we’ll be discussing the differences between a civilian paramedic and a United States Army combat medic. So what’s the difference between a paramedic vs combat medic? Well, to figure that out, we first must define the basic differences between EMT’s, Paramedics, and eventually U.S Is this field for me?”

Signs entering ambulance bays around the US, and the world for that matter; point out in no uncertain terms that “HEROES WORK HERE”. If you trust paramedics to intubate, then for God’s sake give them the proper tools that are evidence based to work! Since the entry of COVID-19, EMS has noticed a difference. People wave.

As your partner pulls the ambulance to a safe location, your pull on your gloves. It’s pointless, every time she goes with the ambulance, we get a bill, and there’s nothing they can do for her there.” It comes in as a Code 3 for a possible stroke by the side of the highway. I never really thought about that.

As one of those "soft skills" integral to the paramedic's toolkit, it is encouraging to see how widely it appears in research, training, leadership and culture. In the current climate, paramedics are feeling both the warmth of widespread empathy, for the role we are playing in pandemia, and the contrasting cold of its absence.
