I officially saved a life...FOR REAL!!!






So I had my first successful cpr the other day! I was helping with compressions, suctioning, breathing and lots more, and we got the patients pulse back and still had it when we got her to the hospital. It felt amazing to now be able to say I really saved a life.

Then yesterday I was in a car accident with the ambulance but it wasnt bad and I am okay. I promise I am safe and being careful.

Last night though, on my night shift I had an insane call. I had my first prisoner in the ambulance with a police officer coming with for the transport. He was chased on his motorcycle by the cops, and ended up crashing his bike into a bench and breaking it taking part of it with the bike, that landed in and sort of under a parked car nearby, and the other part of the bike broke another cars window, and the patient landed further ahead. I took some pics so I will have to post those later. It was really interesting to see that he was actually alive with the way this accident looked.

Now I am off until Tuesday so we shall see what next week brings!
