What do you remember about your ride to the hospital and the care you recieved from the Paramedics. I am a paramedic and I can easily imagine the care that I would give and the reassuance that I give my patients in these type of situations. Did they help reassure you, or try to help keep you calm?

Thank you for your response. I strive to teach the paramedic students to treat every patient like they are a person and realize that they are having one of the worst days of their lives. We (as paramedics) are not remembered as much as many would think and since we are such a young profession (40 years give or take) we do not have as deep a public relations as other emergency services. I am very happy to hear that the medics that helpped you tried to ease your fear and treat you with professionalism and kindness.

LOL many people that do these sort of crimes are not very bright bulbs!

I didn't mean to make you cry... I know personally that I have feared for a person's life and done very well to not give "that vibe", your case may have been one of those. I try not to "armchair" any call I have not been on. I know I try to at least make my patients smile or at least feel a little lighter about the situation.

I am sure not all patrons are creepy old guys or drunk college guys. Have you ever had a decent single guy come in to enjoy the view have good food and a smile. Can you remember any memorable moments like that? (that were not all creeper like.)
