Day 13
Last weekend I past my qualifications to drive ambulance, today was my first shift doing it.
Having real patients in the back and 4 lives in my care while also knowing I have to keep it as smooth as possible was heavy.
My partner has to work in the back at times with critical patients. I was really nervous about it at first.
At one point my partner took me aside after we finished a run and said in the parking lot "are you a bitch, drive this thing like you got balls." Your doing fine but get the hell outta your head.
He had total faith in me the whole time it definitely helped build my confidence. Either way the first time is over -- 12 hours 6 calls two critical patients.
Next time only gonna be stronger 💪!
