You've got no clue!

In the last two days I have become a believer in all things Bob Page. Like a traveling evangelist in his Ford van, he is spreading the gospel of prehospital cardiology throughout the land. In fact, if he had been an evangelist, I would have thrown down my crutches and danced a jig. If this class had been a rock concert, I would have come home with 10 CDs, a hat, a t-shirt, and a poster. If some of the stuff he showed us had been guitar riffs, our faces would have melted off. That's how awesome it was.
For more info, you can head on over to his website. I hope he doesn't mind me linking him here. But I doubt he would, and I doubt he'll ever know.

Among other things he brings to the forefront that if we don't do our jobs, sooner or later, paramedics will not be worth what little money they give us and EMS will revert back to the days of throwing the patient in the back of the meat wagon and driving like hell. Being two blocks from the hospital is not sufficient reason not to do a full assessment and work up on patients.
I think the best thing about it was that he had probably given this lecture a hundred times, and he was very enthusiastic, dynamic, and you can tell that his only motivation is the saving of lives.
At the end, I thanked him for an excellent class and in truth, I can't wait for another chest pain call when last week I gave them all a big sigh.
I can't wait to rig our zoll at part time work to give me CO2 monitoring on the awake patient.
In conclusion, if Bob Page comes to your town, run, do not walk to his class. It is excellent. It will make you a better clinician, and it will saves lives.
