Studying

Right now I'm reading the required summer reading for school. Everyone finds it funny that I hate to read fiction books with "actual stories and plots" but enjoy reading medical/science textbooks. I don't see it as really being odd. I enjoy learning everything that I can about medicine. I like being the only high schooler that can interpret at 12-lead EKG or capnogram.

I honestly feel that I owe it to my patients to read these articles and keep my medical knowledge up-to-date. It is my responsibility to provide the best medical care possible. Period. I'm constantly looking for different ways to perform a technique or faster ways to do them. In EMS one thing is for certain- every second counts.

Just my thoughts again, thanks for listening.
