My Training:

I am a nationally registered EMT-I, was a basic for 7 months in New York and now have certificates in evok, hazard materials and CPR. Got hired to do two months of non-emergency transport and on March 1, of 2008 my companys contract with Dekalb County backing 911 fire went into effect and I got trained in real life real quick. I have done CPR more times then I can count. I have handled many kinds of broken bones. With the help of alot of awesome firefighters I am a better EMT-I now then would be probable without them. I had a parimedic from staton 1 walk my partner and I though our very first crime scene. Can't thank him enough for teaching us what to look for and what not to do. I have a long way to go but backing Dekalb County firefighters has giving me actual real life training that I am grateful to have.

Why I Joined Fire/EMS

although I always wanted to be in the medical feild, My son at 4 had become a hazzard to himself, busted eye, head, broke bone. So In order not to panic and break down crying, decided I would become an EMT but I was a basic and georgia didnt accept basics when I moved here. Other then that I love helping people in there time of need. I LOVE WHAT I DO!!!

Why I Love Fire/EMS

I get to help people who need help and are in pain.

Top Issues Facing Responders:

seeing or hearing calls go out that involve babies n cardiac arrest, or having been abused.
my biggest one is working with a medic to keep people's heart beating and air in their lungs and getting to the hospital only to have a doctor call time of death without any intervention. keep them alive till you can get them to surgery. doesnt always apply.
