Welcome to Delta
Finally.
After over a year of waiting I'm officially working for an Ambulance service. I'm now a proud Employee of Delta Ambulance.
So I've spent the last two full days getting "Oriented" to the new job. Also known as filing out a tree worth of paper, having every Ofiice/Important person introduce themselves, tell us what they do and how you can call them 24/7/365.
It wasn't the most fun thing in the world but it was informational and helpful to meet my fellow N00Bs. I'm also glad to get a chance to talk with some of the EMTs and Medics that have been working for Delta for up to TWENTY years! That's a friggin long time...
I actually start my "Ride Time" or basically a beginner test to see if I'm up to snuff on technique and get me familiar with the area. To be painfully honest... I'm stupid nervous. I know the technical skillz, but half of them I've never done on a person. It is very exciting for me to think of actually being able to go and help people and even get paid to do it! I think I will do well and learn quickly. I also see this as a chance to get to know doctors and make connections that will potentially define the references I get and the Colleges I'm accepted to.
I feel like I've finally hit that "Ah-ha" moment, I'm no longer a kid, I have a grown up job, Grown up issues, I'm not quite a Grown up... But I'm getting there.
