And In The Time-Honored Tradition of Shit Stirring…

…I give you the second installment of AD hatin’ on the fire department my take on the fundamental differences between providing EMS care and fire suppression.

And contrary to popular belief, I do not dislike, nor lack respect for, fire department paramedics.

On the other hand, neither do I insist that the two professions are a seamless match, and that everything is rosy in dual role departments.

If you’re an EMT, particularly a firefighter/EMT, give it a read and tell me what you think, either there on EMS1.com, or here.

Part Three comes next month, where we let the healing begin.

And hey, everybody knows I’m all about the healing.
