You Can't Give Away What You Don't Have

Reposted from www.theemtspot.com

Imagine we were walking down the beach together on a sunny day and I suddenly looked at you and said, "Would you like an apple?"

If you were hungry, your initial reaction might be, "Yes, I'd love one." But you might also be a bit perplexed. I mean, what if I clearly didn't have an apple? Somewhere in your mind you'd wonder where the apple was. Did I have one stashed in a pocket? Do I know… Continue

Quality Assurance In EMS

Reposted from www.theemtspot.com

Not everything that counts can be measured. Not everything the can be measured counts.

- Albert Einstein

Merriam Webster defines quality assurance as a planned and systematic production processes that provide confidence in a product's suitability for its intended purpose. And with that definition, and the best of intentions, our quality assurance teams march forward to confirm… Continue

Waiting Is Serving

Reposted from www.theemtspot.com

Chief Mike West is one of those people with that EF Hutton sort of mystique about him. When he has something to say about emergency services people tend to listen. At least the folks who want to learn more about their job tend to listen. Today I'd like to pass on a little Chief West wisdom.

Depending on where you work, you may do a little waiting or a lot of waiting for your next call.… Continue

Is What We Do a Science or An Art?

It's both. And that can create quite a problem sometimes. OK ... often.

Some EMTs are scientists. They see medicine in very linear, protocol driven flow charts. If the chief complaint is X then check Y and administer Z. They like statistics. They talk about efficacy percentages and risk-benefit calculations. If they can analyze the data ... they can find truth. Within the beautiful geometry of research they can discover the perfect algorithm of care and believe that, by doing… Continue

At 12:49pm on July 14, 2009, Robert Scott said…: Hey Steve,

Thanks for your interest! I've got 2 calls going, one for the West and another for the East. The participants are all non-competing sales reps that have joined our service which administers the calls with a set format that involves effective networking and relationship building that fosters beneficial relationships and an understanding of each other's products and services. We realized that these sales reps all are targeting the same clientele, but with different products and services and can therefore refer each other into new opportunities. I began the Fire and EMS segment in March because of my background as an EMT and familiarity with this industry. I would love to talk with you more and get you onto a call and give us a test drive. Please give me a call when you get a chance 804-378-3543 or email r.scott@radreferral.com

Again, be safe. Yesterday one of our engines was in an accident responding to a hazmat call.
A driver hit the engine and she is now in the hospital. As they say, One really never knows what can happen..." be careful.
