The issue (to me anyways) should be about choices made that inevitably led up to some of these crimes being committed - in Vince Li's case, he (like many other people with schizophrenia or other psychotic disorders) chose to stop taking his meds - either the background voices were telling him to...
The stations I've worked at under ISC have the odd NP, usually a mix of expanded scope RN's and non-expanded ones, along with paramedics, PA's like me and docs that rotated in for 1-2 weeks at a time. Last couple places I worked at had no hospital - we'd either transfer to Winnipeg or Thompson...
I had a newly minted MO that couldn't get his Capt's promotion because he trained in Quebec and, despite having his CCFP, couldn't qualify for a license there because their qualification exam has one of the highest failure rates in the country on the first try...he had to apply for a license in...
I meant moonlighting in paramedicine outside of the 911 system...though I've met many paramedics that were combat or other arms reservists over the years, just to do something different for work/life balance...and bring added life experience to their other jobs
Do they still go with the "AEMCA" designation in Ontario and then once you're working call you a Paramedic, even if you went through a paramedic program in an Ontario College? That was still a thing when I was posted in Kingston in the late 90's...
The folks I work(ed) with in Northern MB...
Not everyone who works in paramedicine does work for a 911 system though - many work in industrial sites, we have them working in nursing stations in northern Manitoba helping in the ED or doing dressing changes or screening patients - none on ambulance though, except for the places that...
Interesting...I did SYEP at the ARTC on the other side of the highway/up the hill from the Cadet Camp in 1986, and also worked at the Reserve MIR in 1988. They'd need to likely revamp a lot of stuff, add a decent training area as well - was pretty small IIRC AND when I was there last time...
I saw an Aussie documentary on the Battle of Kapyong, since they were holding the opposite side of the valley (and were forced to withdraw) that had a short blurb from the Canadian perspective...I think an actual movie, NOT a la Passhendale or Hyena Road, about that would be a good start. Frig...
