Paramedic Stories
Paramedics are highly trained emergency medical technicians or clinicians, who are trained and capable in medically treating patients who have suffered injuries or illnesses outside of a hospital. Because of the nature of the work paramedic often attend to, paramedics often deal with extremely stressful environments and unusual situations (car accidents, heart attacks, out of hospital deliveries of babies) which for most people would be considered very strange and intense; however, for paramedics, this is just a part of their daily routine at work. Don’t get me wrong, paramedics still have many hours and days spent performing routine tasks and taking regular patients from nursing homes to hospitals for check ups; however, in between all this monotony, paramedics earn their money by dealing with trauma and severe medical emergencies, such as cardiac arrests, seizures, meningococal disease and other medical emergencies.
