EMT Reflection

Decent Essays
I want to take this course because I know as a Health Care provider that there is so much more knowledge and experience available to make us better at what we do, and how we do it. As an EMT I would always say that I was capable of being more. More, in the sense of knowing that I could help contribute to something bigger than myself someday. And in that capacity it was earning my Paramedic certification to help play a bigger role in the care for the sick and injured. I feel that having this mindset has helped me tremendously overcome some very mentally taxing obsticlals (Paramedic class being one) but it also continues to inspire me to be better than I was yesterday, or on the next 911 call I run. I have a deep passion for EMS, and some say

    Capstone Reflection As I reflect on the past two years of the education that I have participated in, I am excited about the conclusion and completion of my Bachelor of Nursing Science (BSN) degree. I have long anticipated completing my BSN. Twenty plus years ago I was accepted into the University of Washington nursing program, but was positioned as third on the waitlist.

    Communities entrust their health and safety to paramedics when they are in their most vulnerable state, it is for that primary reason paramedics should be subjected to professional registration - to protect the public. Currently, the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (APHRA) is responsible for overseeing the registration requirements of health professionals within Australia (AHPRA, YEAR). AHPRA’s paramount objective is to maintain public safety by ensuring only health practitioners who are appropriately trained and qualified to practice in a competent and ethical manner are registered (Victorian Government, 2009). Of note, unlike the other health professionals, at present paramedics are not subject to any annual registration…

    In 2001, my father was rushed to hospital on blue lights for pneumonia. I was later told that he was just hours from death and that it was paramedic intervention that had saved his life. Since then I have had a deep fascination with prehospital care, making it my life’s ambition to help others in similar situations. The role of the paramedic is constantly changing and with more opportunities for career development than ever before I would relish the opportunity to embark on the Paramedic Science BSc Course.…

    Mark Emmert alongside a female Indiana Law Professor talked to a small group of students, teachers, coaches, and adults. The conversation started with a few basic questions. The first being, “How are rules made and what is the process?” Emmert went on to talk about self-governance and how the universities themselves make their own rules and make their own decision on finances. The NCAA however, is broken down into 3 divisions and a collection of university presidents with sub-committees that make decisions on tournaments and revenue.…

    The Emergency Medical Services as we know it today has a very humble beginning based on evidence from 1500 Before Christ(B.C.) when evidence indicates a Good Samaritan treated wounds of a injured person found on the side of the road with oil and wine per protocol of that era. EMS education has grown from that day on primarily through knowledge gained from multiple conflicts and wars that date as far back as the napoleonic wars. This knowledge was taught to military medical providers and eventually to the general public following World War II. As we see from the treatment protocols used by the Good Samaritan in 1500 B.C. compared to our protocols used today many changes in the education of EMS providers have occurred.…

    All the classes prior to this one were easy and pretty general in nature. None of them really had the feeling that they would help me out in a practical way. But once I took this class, that all changed. The certification practicum has taught me to think critically about problems in real time. Doing the lab exercises has taught me to use the world around me by working in a virtual office setting and going from room to room trying to configure a DMZ or trying to get security cameras on the network.…
