My first day as a medic at a fire station working independently. Four orientation shifts prior had zero calls. Training to that point was largely on dummies and I had only worked in inpatient psychiatry so no practical skills. I'm sitting down with my firefighters for lunch when the alarm goes off. After scrambling to get unfamiliar gear together, I jumped in my ambulance without any clue what we were heading to. Details began to trickle in. Middle-aged female, heat stroke, unresponsive, seizing on the ground. A genuinely serious call and something I had only seen in a book written for lower-level providers.
Frantically googling "how to treat heat stroke" in the back of a speeding ambulance.
