Subject: Time to move on
Is it me, or are some on this list getting a little testy? Where is
the level of professionalism we all should be striving for?
Is there some way this nonsense can be stopped? My mailbox is
clogged with juvenile, often anonymous messages. (Who the heck is "DCK,"
anyway? And why should anyone bother to read a nasty, anonymous
post?)
Those who have contributed useful information to this discussion are to
be applauded. Yes, this topic will always be emotionally charged, but
clearly, nothing is going to be resolved in this forum.
Give me a partner in prehospital care who is compassionate, alert,
creative and well-educated, then throw the letters out the window. Those
who hang on to their letters like a life-line are more worried about their
image than about their patients. Have confidence in yourself, and others
will have confidence in you
'nuff said from my corner.

Subject: Re: Higher Level
Sorry... but it will
be a cold day in H _ _ L when I say an RN is a higher level of Pre-hospital
provider than I am as a Paramedic. If you look at hierchy,usually its the
nursing profession that puts them on top of the heap. PHRN do not function
with different protocols, if you wwant to do my job then become a Paramedic.
