Yourself? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Speaking of Your Attitude….
 
 
We chose to be apathetic.  We chose to be burned out.  We can also chose to have fun in almost any situation.  THAT is the best antidote to burnout and apathy.

Food for thought ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Q: Why is the Emergency Medical Service never spoken of this way? (and what are  you  going to do to change this?) Our attitudes toward ourselves and others determine others attitudes to us. Do we view ourselves in SERVICE?  Do others view us in SERVICE? Or… Do they view us as just another job….
Service  Service   Service!

Special Populations
 
 
 
 
Aging is not a disease. It is a level of maturity that begins to evolve at birth and continues until death. There is no cure for it, new or old, any more than there is a cure for life itself.
The Graying of America -pertains to a doubling of our elderly population between 1990  And 2030. -Advances in medicine -decrease in nationwide birthrate since 1965 -aging Baby Boomers -1990: 3.4 million EMS responses annually (roughly 1/3) -occupied 90% of acute-care hospital beds, 60% of long-term  Beds and used 30% of all pharmaceuticals

Editor's Notes

  1. Follow up questions about “service” in that job.
  2. Even in a no choice enviroment (i.e. an exclusive 911 service) the customer has a “choice” to support, or oppose, the service politically and personally, making the job easier or harder on many different levels.
  3. We chose to be apathetic. We chose to be burned out. We can chose to have fun in almost any situation.
  4.
