About Me:
15 years in the field. Will add more later. 12/10/09
To help other people and living things. To make a differnce in this world! Paying bills and using up oxygen is just not enough for me. I WANT MORE OUT OF LIFE! This calling is also a great gateway to learning many, many other things in the world than just Emergency Services.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
We get to see and experience things that other people never will. It is also very rewarding to me to make a real difference in someones' life that is hurting and/or in need of help they cannot provide for themselves. Am I my brothers' keeper? Yep....
Top Issues Facing Responders:
FUNDING!
Recruitment
Retaining Members
Combatting "BURNOUT"
