EMS A-Z Series: "P" Patient Assessment & Public Perception
There are so many P's in EMS topics that I found it hard to choose just the right one. What I decided to do was to pick one that is common and one that is not.

EMS A-Z Series "O" - Oropharnygeal Airway
Now before you run away thinking you know all there is about the OPA, take a
minute and read on.

EMS A-Z Series "N" - The N Word EMS Style
In EMS we hate the "N" word just as much as anyone else.

Nov 15, 2007, 11:38:25 AM


EMS A-Z Series "M" - Medical Control
Medical control in EMS is often a feared aspect. Especially when you are first starting out and do not yet have the confidence to talk to the physician without being intimidated.

EMS A-Z Series "L" - Learning From Mistakes

Even at my advanced age I know the value that mistakes can have on my actions.

EMS A-Z Series "K" Ketoacidosis and Kussmaul

EMS A-Z Series: EMS Week Installment
Although the only people usually shining that light are our peers and related industries. Most people are not even aware that EMS Week exists.
They sure know when Secretary's Day is or Bring Your Child to Work Day. Not that I am trying to bring these days of recognition down. The question is, why isn’t EMS Week more recognized?

Feedback: EMS A-Z Series ...."F" First Aid, First Responders? First On Scene
Firstly, I will admit that most of this may be colored by a regional system quite different from my own.
