Ol’ ZB popped up on the peloton playlist today. It was during a climb. Got goosebumps. Brick walls were pedaled to the ground

ACLS and PALS every 2 years is not acceptable. Skills deteriorate after 6 months. Run scenarios. Do educational debriefs. Make it the norm. Allow people to get better. Show people that they need to get better and can get better. IMHO

As important as it is to understand why paramedics are leaving, it is also important to ask those who stay why they stay.

Mandatory overtime is a patient safety issue. People make mistakes when they are tired and overworked.

Please be gentle with our #YYC & #Airdrie area paramedics over the next while. Our EMS family has suffered a tragic loss. Hug your babies! #abhealth @HSAAlbertaEMS

Being a leader means doing right is more important than being right. Exchange hubris for humility. #todaystakeaway

Retention of good people is more important than recruitment.

Forcing an unwanted pregnancy is a human rights violation. Mandating a safe vaccine is not.

I’ve had some people ask if I would make a video about the roe v wade news. I’m not going to. I don’t see the humor, I don’t want to look for the humor. Right now it’s all anger and sadness, so I’ll just be here to support all of you in anger and sadness.

Nice to see many people around #yyc voluntarily picking up trash while out for a walk, bike ride etc. lately! Let’s all collectively work to keep our planet a little nicer, greener, cleaner, kinder #earthdayeveryday

Repeat after me: holding people accountable to their ignorant and privileged bullshit, is cool.

To my paramedic colleagues, I know things are very tough right now. Know that you are incredibly respected and valued by all the physicians and nurses in the ED, even though we don't always show it. We are here for you.

It's past time that we stopped conceiving of paramedics as two people who turn up in an emergency ambulance and take you to hospital, and started viewing paramedicine as the art of bringing good medicine to tough situations, wherever that arises.

1 year today we lost a great friend and colleague. I continue to see the struggles of my colleagues from the stress of EMS. Both physical and mental. As leaders “we must do better “ for our practitioners. RIP 5001655 I will strive to do better #ahsems
Morgan Yanco retweeted
So when did fire chiefs become experts in patient care? Oh right they aren’t so why is everyone listening to them instead of the paramedics ? Just saying #ahsems

First sunrise of a new year may they all be this beautiful this year as we can sure use it.... be safe out there #ahsems #OnTheRoad

"A trauma code is not the same as a medical code. When a trauma patient loses pulses, there are only a few interventions that can save their life. Chest compressions interfere with virtually all of them." - Sam Ghali, MD – at Monroe, NC
