We need to be able to adapt to our surroundings and turn the scene into our own office, our own workable space. No scene Is the same so if We can adapt it will bring the best outcome for our patients.

As a paramedic we are constantly caring for so many individuals. The more of a caring attitude we bring with us the less stressed and overwhelmed our patients will be when under our care. Understanding how a patient is experiencing a situation is important and being able to see their needs before they have to verbalize to us. Take a step back in your shoes to take a moment to understand what your patient may need in this moment of distress for them. -Martha Helmers]]> 2018-01-31 03:54:33 UTC https://padlet.com/DuggSteary/PARA5009NewParamedic1/wish/226410190 https://padlet.com/DuggSteary/PARA5009NewParamedic1/wish/226418584 As paramedics we must be able to adapt to all situations. We must be resourceful if we are not given or do not have the tools we need. This is a homemade stethoscope. It was made to represent creating your own tools.

They also expressed concern for maintaining compassion through every call when they feels like they needs a break sometimes after the heavy calls. We came to the solution that self care is really important to maintain your mental health and help you cope with the situations we are in during rideouts. Puppies make everyone happy so this is a puppy I made...(not a monkey) to represent self care.

Scheduling time for yourself allows for everyone to de-stress and relax. Work-life balance is needed to have a healthy life in and outside of work.

You must be able to handle the stress or you will not last long. That is why resilience is an important part of being a paramedic. After and long and hard day, you need a coping mechanism.

Hopefully paramedics can be paramedics for a long duration without losing compassion or becoming burnt out. The way we can do this is finding a good work-life balance that works for us. As a result, we can be better paramedics for a longer time. ]]> 2018-02-14 16:29:25 UTC https://padlet.com/DuggSteary/PARA5009NewParamedic1/wish/231574881 michaelbrock1052 https://padlet.com/DuggSteary/PARA5009NewParamedic1/wish/231580672 A good paramedic is as much a team player as they are a leader. A good leader knows the strengths and weaknesses of their team and guides the team to complete a task using those strengths.
