I began my career at 14 in the emergency department as a volunteer. At 18 I was hired as a tech and worked for 4 years in the er. I decided to go the prehospital route in the busiest 911 ambulance service in the state and have loved every minute of it. I have been a paramedic for the last 8 years and was an EMT for three years before that. I have moved up through the ranks and was the youngest dispatch/communications supervisor the company had ever had. I am as high as I can go with no room to move up or change what I do. I miss my ER days and have decided to go back to school for nursing. I miss taking care of patients. I am going into a traditional nursing program as apposed to a bridge paramedic to RN program because I feel that having not touched a patient in the last 6 years it would be in my best interest and it would help me to transition from the paramedic mindset to the RN's way of thinking. I look forward to interacting with you all and have loved everything about allnurses.com so far.
