EMS Live

Posted by GruntDoc on 19th March 2005

EMSLive emailed me the other day, mostly so I’d know they exist. They have audio interviews about, by and for Paramedics (and I suppose other prehospital healthcare people, but their focus is the Paramedic). They also have a chat function.

EMSLive is the place to start. Now, I’m always reluctant to sit through taped content like this unless I’m already trapped (in my car, for instance). I can visually scan written material and decide if I want to read / get involved in about 5 seconds, which is impossible with audio (IMHO). So, I haven’t tried it yet.

Anyway, if you’re a Paramedic, you should go and give it a try!
