Skills included oxygen administration, monitoring intravenous lines, testing blood glucose levels, splinting and immobilizing trauma patients. I attended approximately 5,000 calls over this time period.; I was accepted into the Advanced Care Paramedic program in Regina Wascana. I trained for; in college as well as clinical locations in Saskatoon including Royal University Hospital Intensive Care Unit, Coronary Care Unit, OR & Recovery, Labour & Delivery and Emergency Department.As an Advanced Care Paramedic, I am certified to deliver over 50 Saskatchewan Protocol Medications, start Intravenous lines, Endotracheal Intubation, Cardiac Defibrillation, Cardiac Pacing, Synchronized Cardioversion, start External Jugular cathertization, chest decompression, CPAP machines, and start an Intraosseous line in pediatric patients.1997 – 2006 – I worked as an Advanced Care Paramedic in the city of Saskatoon and attended approximately 9,000 calls including delivering 5 babies in personal residences. While working as an ACP, I had to coordinate rescue efforts between my EMT partner, Saskatoon Fire Fighters and police officers on many calls. Critical incident management can be one of the most difficult skills ever learned; being the highest medically trained person at an incident means that I am ultimately responsible for the outcome of the call. All incidents must be properly managed with a team attitude and respect in order to achieve the best possible outcome for the patient. I pride myself on the skills I have learned in over 20 years of education and on the job training. Show less
