We welcome our new panelists.
Micaela (paramedic)
Simone (former ER RN and now ER NP)
Paramedic’s Alex and Casey returning.
Simone gives us a glimpse into the tough transition from ER RN to ER NP.
You need to love the medicine. Having to know so much of so many things was one of the toughest parts.
You must be second best at every specialty.
Alex talks about the transition from EMT to paramedic.
Being in a system that creates strong EMT’s makes the process easier.
Being able to think back to times when you were an EMT and what your paramedic did in certain scenarios is a great frame of reference.
Transitions like this are difficult to explain until you have lived them. Not having that safety net is a big difference.
Confidence only comes after practice in the field, not in school.
Don’t make the mistake of thinking you know everything. It can be a dangerous mentality.
Critical procedures should always be taken with the seriousness they deserve.
Casey talks about pericardiocentesis (please follow your protocols)
Cricothyrotomy stories
Casey takes about doing this in the back of a helicopter.
Think about having to cric every time you intubate a difficult airway.
