Ridin' the box...
That's right, every now and then you gotta put a little time in the medic unit. In my case, alot. Being the rookie ALS provider I get the "privilege" of ridin' the box quite often, but I'm not complaining (in case the captains are reading this). We have 5 24/7 medic units throughout the city, in addition to a medic unit that is staffed Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday for ten hours each day aka (the Powershift). Needless to say were on our 15,000 EMS call, so we stay fairly busy, between 10-16 runs a shift here at #1. Obviously, there are days when we run not nearly that many, and as you may know, the shift that comes on after that lull gets royally screwed.
