@fire.steve: I have bandages, a tourniquet CPR, and an AED. If you require anything else we’re waiting. #firesteve #volunteerfirefighter #firstresponderhumor #firstaid #ems

Fattyness :

Narcan someone who passed out while choking.

cole_ant :

Sometimes narcan, sometimes narcant

Meraki23 🇨🇦 :

My thoughts exactly when I have to write my name as “First aider” on my FLHA because there’s no onsite medic. Just a heads up y’all…..if you get hurt today, you’re going to meet Jesus

Greg :

use the halligan bar!

Annie 🇨🇦 :

are we sure fire Steve isn't actually a cop? 😂 this feels like a jab a cop would make to a fireman 😂😂🥰

mdstrange🇨🇦 :

[Tears of joy][Tears of joy][Tears of joy]the Paramedics told me to stop throwing up, I had been doing that for the last 3 days that’s why we called you! I would have loved being able to stop, rehydration sure felt good though.

Manda Lee🇺🇸 :

Staaaaaappppp it🤣🤣🤣🤣

Error-Error :

You forgot the splashes of cold water lol

Will Mullis :

I’m a volunteer firefighter and AEMT … the county requires all first responder to have at least BEMT or EMT (paramedic) certification

Nate Fonseca :

I laughed but in the same cert as a full time guy on my vol department and we get it done this hate needs to stop

Chantell ᥫ᭡ :

Middle Man Twice Removed :

Narcan for ODs maybe 😅

Kimber🔥 :

😂😂😂

stephenjohnson1187 :

Now the patient has to recover from a heart attack and a concussion 🤣🤣🤣

DumbPotato (痴芋) :

In my experience, retired paramedic, then later went into higher levels of medicine. If there any excuse to give ASA it’s on board, nitro too for places that have it. It’s like thanks but now I have to be careful of vasodilators.

Bryan J Steele :

that seems very aggressive...😳

wdbnder Tim :

LMFAO!!!!

Lindsay🇨🇦 :

Sky :

This is hilarious but super untrue about a lot of small town firefighters

James :

Mostly untrue, volunteers in my area are also EMTs, paramedics and some are career ff’s in larger neighboring areas, some even work part time for the local ambulance service and some work full time there, we operate under their protocols and all of our equipment is standard across the county, we are also equipped with Lucas CPR devices in every station

Chris Hinote :

I know several volunteer firemen that are EMTs.

Bonnie_6.6 :

How military doctors are

samscarborough26 :

They show yo except for that “lift assist” at 2am when they are down the street and your two districts over lol. However an MVC and you see volunteers youve never seen! Lll

Skaternate :

There really isn’t much more that an EMT can do than someone with PSFA. When shit really hits the fan it all falls back to BLS. A paramedic may be able to push some drugs but without the BLS in place it’s not going to much most of the time.

Moose :

as the other corner of the first responder triangle..... I feel ya. I got a tourniquet, a small trauma kit, first aid, and good intentions.... sometimes. I can add some holes to ya if you need those!
