I was trained and certified as an EMT when I went through the Fire Academy way back in 2010. After I graduated I also passed the EMT National Registry, so I could have gone to work on an ambulance, but I never did.
My mother was an ER nurse my whole childhood, and later became a Nurse Practitioner. She just retired a few months ago.
I worked in long term care as well have done home health care.
shareYes. For over a decade.
shareNo, never, but my wife has been a Registered Nurse for about 27 years, we know a lot of Nurses, Cops and Firefighters through our shared circles of friends.
Nurses, Cops and Firefighters have some of the craziest work stories I’ve ever heard, they are heroes and share a very specific sense of humor. You have to be pretty tough and ‘grounded’ to do most of that sort of work…it can really beat a person up.
No but my mum and sister were both nurses.
There's only one job that is more thankless than teacher, and thats nurse. Its a tough job, I wouldn't want to do it.
