I could be wrong and ROTO 6 data was in there and I only remember roto 09 cause that was my roto.  I will check on the 7th when I get back to the clinic and will scan a pdf of the study or find the very obscure link to it. MTF on this Wait Out....

Medic was my 3rd choice, and really was just there for giggles.  Fast fwd 6 years later, I've had a great career that I love.  Some times when one door closes a few more open and we are meant to take one of those.  You never know.  I spent some time working as a medic in recruiting and got this...

Currently, nothing. While overseas in 2010 we trialed using HSD, which meant we also carried NaCl.  Yes we carried 4 500cc bags of IV fluid.  On long patrols I'd pack 6 (an extra 2 saline). The final study came out last spring I believe (it's at work hanging on the board and I'm on Block Leave...

Every time I get tasked somewhere, I read the OP/Admin Orders, do MY map recce of the AOR and find out if any air assets are available, and then I think about what I will need to bring.  Then I pack my bag.  Then I realize how heavy it is. (We tend to try and pack everything).  So I lighten it. ...

Trying to Release, I can understand why you don't want the pharmaceutical approach.  That is something between you and your doctor, you certainly have the right to refuse treatment unless you are a danger to yourself or others.  Check out this site/facebook group, they may be able to help you...

Learning this tid-bit, only hardens my resolve.  Unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to get anything down before x-mas.  But you never know.  MTF  I'll keep updates going on here too.

Good Day Everyone, Mods, please move this if  I put in in the wrong spot. We are all aware of tragic events that occurred in Newtown, Connecticut yesterday.  There is lots of press coverage of the victims and their struggles (as it should be of course).  However, as usual the first responders...

Begin Rant..... Ok, so I've spent the day reading over the posts and absorbing what everyone is saying about the IR deductions, and the movement of some items from one Move Folder to another in IRP.  What my main concern is, and what nobody else has mentioned, is the loss of MLI and the...

Reg Force Medic here: I think being a medic is the greatest job ever, there is nothing like it anywhere.  That being said I am posted to a Clinic, and while I have a tour to Afghanistan, I have yet to be posted to a Fd Amb. I have had the opportunity to do many things, I have walked on a...

You would be surprised as to how many people forget the gloves,  PPE is very important for you and your family.  I used to get ribbed all the time for carrying a few pairs on me at all times.  Until a few incidents occurred in the ROLE 1 at the back door away from all the boxes of gloves in the...

No matter where you are sent, there are aspects of any posting you will like, and dislike.  Speaking from the CDU side of the house, we have 2 QL3's in the clinic (myself included) and we work in our full Clinical Scope of Practice.  We screen patients and do exams, then head straight for a...

Well a quick Google Search for "American PPE Study" returned 161,000 results.  I scanned 3 studies, one by the American Army, one by the Marines, and one from a southern Univerisity And they all advocated more armour not less.  The Army and Marine Studies attributed NBI not to the increase in...
