WOW, here in NYC, do to the high call volume, 2 EMTB'S staff a BLS (basic life support unit) and respond to all the trauma jobs; gunshots, stabs, jumper downs, MVA's and lower level priority call like difficulty breathers with no history and asthmas of a certain age. our system and FDNY respond to about 1 million calls a year. i have been a paramedic for sometime and i can tell you the EMT's get the bloody stuff, they call for our help when it is unmanageable. the starting is $20ish for the hospital based and $17ish for the municipal based BLS units. just last night we had a double shooting and one was a traumatic arrest. EMT'S got there first and requested medics for the traumatic arrest... we also get dual assigned on all medical arrests one BLS unit, one ALS unit(2 paramedics), a fire engine and a patrol supervisor. so the moral of the story is, anything high profile or just plane gruesome there will be EMTBS AND MEDICS working it side by side.

yea, that was awesome....

:yeah:lmao " I SWEAR I CALLED HER NAME 4 TIMES IN MY HEAD AND SHE STILL DIDNT COME!" oh well her loss...

do you or have you ever had a criminal record? call em! they will tell you exactly what the wait is................

congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would say the same thing if you were 10lbs, 3feet tall. don't give up the opportunity..... you will be ok.

Im not a nurse there, but i worked as a paramedic in that neighborhood for sometime. the area is one of the ruff ones in terms of quality of patients: gunshots, stabbings, shootings, ect.... but you are right behind a community college and there is an FDNY station on premise, you have HHC police in the hospital and you are a couple of blocks from a police precint and a subway(two blocks)... i would not turn this oppurtunity down because of the location... there are tougher places in the city

5 days, and received it in the mail on the 6th... Pearson trick works ! congrats

dec'09 graduate... Since the transition from svcmc to spson things have been hectic( moving and setting up). With my class graduating, an evening and day program running they have there hands full. One thing is certain, it has always been best to stop by and pick up the application in person.

Graduated DEC/09. passed my boards and there was never a problem because the school was not NLN. your NYS lic doesnt say which school you attended.

I could not have said that better myself, deadline and limbo. I am in New York and the wait is killing me.

Your daily routine is doing for others, but we gotta do for ourselves sometimes too. Transfer!

Who is this paul fella? SVCMC FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
