EMT = ME


sooooooooooooo I keep forgeting to post about my EMT tests. They weren't hard, but boy was I nervous especially for the practical one to show off my wicked life saving techniques.

First off I would like to thank Mike for letting me practice putting on a C-Collar and completing rapid trauma and medical assessments on him for about 7 hours straight. I was able to complete my trauma assessment in under 6 minutes and medical in about about 7 minutes by the time the night was through. Secondly, I want to thank Mike (again) for encourageing me to stay in the course and FINISH what I started. After I got a job at night it was soooooo hard to get up at 6:00 AM and go to class, but I DID it and am glad. I haven't ever really been good at finishing projects and this was a project and a half. After I took the written test and found out I PASSED I just went to my car and cried, a strange reaction for me. So I passed both tests and I also passed the course with an A. Now I am an EMT, not sure what I will do with my certification, but I am very proud of myself. Thirdly It feels so good to acomplish something and to do it well.
