[QUOTE="Mark K 2, post: 983095, member: 55685"] I got hired as a registered nurse by an ambulance service ten days ago. The day after hire, I was thrust into a paramedic refresher course (I've never been a paramedic, per se) and have to complete an advanced cardiac care course online. This is in addition to orientating to the department. My mind is mush with crammed information. Somewhere along the line, I accidentally passed the hands-on portion of the cardiac care course without even trying. Today, I am in an EMS uniform for the first time in five years. I've discovered that my old undershirts are too small and my quick-zip boots are too tight. Apparently, I'm larger than I used to be. It's nice to have a job, but I'm nervous as hell because many of the medications have changed and the procedures are different than before. The old dog/new tricks thing may be true after all.
