Description

Are you still the type of paramedic you had hoped to be when you first set foot inside an ambulance?

Is it easy for you to go home at the end of each shift without questioning your actions?

Would your style of patient care be acceptable for your own family in their time of need?

In the current climate of increasing prehospital demand, it is more important than ever that paramedic standards ensure optimum skill, safety and professionalism. With growing call volumes, public scrutiny, legal liability and employer expectations often creating a sense of overwhelm, the ability to maintain such standards can easily begin to suffer.

Find out how to evaluate your own individual practice with a simple, pain scale type approach, so that you remain at the top of your game no matter where you are in your career.

Using a conversational and inclusive format, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly Paramedic is an easy to follow book. Designed to be picked up, put down and picked back up again at any point, no matter how time poor you may be.

  • Ignite your initial spark, rekindle your passion or maintain your existing pride in paramedicine

  • Ensure a strong focus on best patient care, safety, public perception and professionalism

  • Avoid unnecessary incidents, disciplinary issues and confusion in an already stressful role

  • Enhance your reputation, mutual respect and enjoyment of the rewarding career you have chosen

    Written by a paramedic, specifically for paramedics, from students right through to veterans. A judgment free read, to grow the good, break the bad and undo the ugly in all of us.

Perfect Fit

Exactly as described - good quality, genuine Littman rubbers delivered quickly.
Some initial issues with PayPal were also quickly sorted and at no financial cost to myself. A trusted source for medical equipment.

Considering various Leatherman tools, the Leatherman Arc is one option, but the Wave Plus offers a convenient size for pocket carry while still providing a comprehensive set of desired tools.

Great little resource book

Full of great info to help you remember all the acronyms (IMIST AMBO, METHANE, AMPLE, etc) plus good prompts for patient questioning, reading ECG's, and medical terminology. Well worth it.

Perfect 21st gift

We purchased the Leatherman Raptor Shears as a 21st gift for a paramedic student. It came highly recommended by a fellow medic and was very well received by the recipient. It’s a lifelong gift. 😀

Nebo DaVinci - a great torch

I am impressed by the quality and capability of this torch. The combination of water-tightness and zoom lamp is usually not very successful, but in this case it works. The size and brightness is just right for camping: not to big, not too bright. I also like the twist adjust for the brightness as I don't have to continually cycle through the various modes like other torches.
Price from the Paramedic Shop was good, and delivery was timely.

Amazing bit of information.

I am a volunteer in Western Australia and wanting to become a paramedic.
I wanted to know how the ECG's read and knowing what it looks like and honestly I have some knowledge in how. to read it.

Thank you

Great

Fast shipping super happy with my purchase will by through this company again

New you bueat tool

This new suction unit is the best piece of equipment we have ever purchased for our son who cannot dispose of his phlegm he coughs up. This unit is compact enough so we can place it on the back of his wheelchair and take it out and about for when he needs to use the unit.
