Improve EMT skills (blood sugar, blood pressure, memorize where items are located in ambulance, paperwork/what to make copies of and leave at hospital)

My last resolution for the new year is skills improvement. Right now, its mostly about where to find items, turning on dome lights/oxygen/how to replace the oxygen tank, and also the paperwork. I’ve made some good improvement on the paperwork since January. I think the key to getting better at all of these skills is repetition.

At least, that’s what it’s been here at the mental health clinic. Repetition. I’ve been able to streamline the intake process and ask the assessment questions confidently now. Sadly, the secret seems to be wearing myself out. There’s just nothing left to be nervous with when you work alot of hours.

People seem to like the worn out version of me.

Confidence comes from using up every last bit energy. Until all that’s left to share is the truth: that all people are worth the same amount. Not more, not less.

And we should all be drinking more water!

Wishing you moments of joy and peace.

Love,

Terra Rose
