It's EMS Week 2025! While a lot of people use this week (specifically those in EMS) to complain on social media about being underpaid, understaffed, and ran into the mud, I'm trying to encourage you to take a deep look into WHY you wanted to do this job in the first place.

In this episode, I discuss how your attitude towards coworkers and patients, plays a huge role in advancing the field of EMS. We all know EMS is the "bastard" child of healthcare and public safety, but it doesn't have to be.

I also discuss why it's important to prepare yourself as a brand new EMT or Paramedic for what you might deal with in the field. It's important to set yourself up for success so that you can work a long and healthy career in the field. There was so much more that I wanted to discuss, but for now, I'll leave you with this.
