I was a paramedic in the early 1980's and taught paramedic classes 1991-92. Now I am a critical care RN and when a patient crashes I have support people just moments away. It really is a test to be in the field when a patient is critical and you only have radio contact with physicians. I absolutely loved being a paramedic but it was really hard on my knees.
Let us know how classes go. I miss the excitement of EMS sometimes.
