Realtime status, training assets, and a home for the Brown EMS Corps
I think that at Brown we do a lot of things right. However, I have a question to ask: why is our jump kit so heavy? That red bag weighs a ton. I consider myself to be a pretty big guy, but even I have trouble lugging that stupid bag up five flights of Keeney. The gear I carry in the fire service is usually lighter. I honestly had some back soreness after carrying that monstrosity around all night on our spring weekend shift.
…Because we’re working on the 4th. Good eats, chill peeps. Burgers, hot dogs, grass pucks, etc. Food donations welcome. Times are tentative. Somewhere in that window. Everyone’s invited!
For those of you who are on facebook, be sure to become a fan of EMTs at Brown. In addition to posting choice updates from the blog, we will be setting up some community features for the EMTs at Brown student group and corps.
For those summer course students reading this: You will not pass the summer course unless you become a fan. No fan = see you next summer. Just like the “CHUBBY BUNNY” trauma assessment incident last night, this is not an idle threat.
Skill Station 3 of 9, Trauma Assessment has been uploaded! Check out the Skill Station Videos page to view.
Also of note, Lab Instructor Office Hours are now on the bios page for your perusal. As the summer course continues and you find that you are lacking signatures, office hours are an excellent time for practice and testing.
Okay, so we all know the best part of commencement duty is tooling around the brown campus on gators with sirens. How better to show your love of the gator with a sweet patrol uniform shirt? The miniscule proceeds go to supporting our lovely website, so purchase with confidence!
