The Idea

I've been speaking to a lot of people about a blog and thinking about starting one for a while and finally here it is.
At present work has given me the opportunity to look at myself and with these new eyes, through training and experience, I want more. I love my job, I sometimes can make a difference. You can see that in the people that you treat, but we are bound by such limits that the provision of what you can do can be so limited that you think I could be doing more, I need to be doing more.
Sorry for the first real posting this may sound like the rant of a madman but those of you involved in prehospital medicine, be it ambulance service or VAS, might just understand
At present I have just completed my Paramedic qualification, well as soon as the paper work arrives I can practice. In comparison to the role I have been doing as a technician this is so much more. As part of the training you get to spend some time in hospital. I have enjoyed every min of this it was an opportunity to get training from people who are specialists in their field, enthusiastic at the job, well the majority are. The chance to pick their brains. And what did this do? It shouted at me THERE IS MORE YOU CAN DO . So the additional ATLS course was fun now back to the books to find another course. But for now I'm going to enjoy my new skills and soon hopefully I can practice. Go Mr postman
