Are you mentally ready for the reality of making an ambulance your everyday office? Is it your hope to end every shift without second guessing your actions or inactions? Do you want to follow the crowd, or create your own professional approach with intent? Becoming a newly qualified paramedic or EMT is like a juggling act. With hands and minds full of ambition, fresh ideas, hard earned expertise and newly acquired knowledge, it can be challenging to maintain the high standards that you're desperate to deliver. Even the best of intentions will be difficult to deploy, without recognising what's important, or why. This book is your guide to growing good habits, so that little of the bad and even less of the ugly can creep in along the way. While training and education deal with standalone skills, minimal time remains to devote to the biggest learning curve of all. Putting everything together into one professional, compassionate and satisfying package. If you're looking for checklists to tick, flick and forget, this is not the book for you. But if you prefer to craft an individual brand of outstanding emergency care with intent, everything you need is right here. Nothing clinical will be covered. No tips or tricks on specific techniques. It's all about attitude to the human-centered skills that will set you up for success, ready to hit the ground running. A self-development style handbook, for students at any stage of preparation for a prehospital career. Work on ways to bring out your best in providing nothing less than you would expect for your loved ones. Think through the things that may prove inwardly challenging, before they arise in reality. Fine tune your focus and create proactive plans to avoid unnecessary incidents or unwanted events. Design a mindset that matches your moral compass, and satisfies those who depend on your dedication. Through its friendly, conversational and easy to follow format, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly Paramedic Student Handbook puts you firmly in the driving seat of your own destiny toward the job of your dreams. Book #1 in the GBU Paramedic series for prehospital care providers.

Author

Tammie Bullard

Tammie is an Australian author with a passion for professionalism and best patient care. Through a background in paramedic practice and extensive academic study, along with clinical teaching, training, precepting and lecturing roles, she aims to put it to good use. Her approach to the prehospital environment and its unique challenges is inclusive, non-confrontational and realistic, with the simple goal of encouraging every reader to stay proactive in making their chosen career successful, safe and satisfying. After deciding to become a paramedic, while living in a remote country town, she started as a volunteer, before diving headfirst into the world of paramedic practice. Throughout her academic journey from undergraduate to postgraduate qualifications in intensive care paramedicine, and a master's degree in critical care, her enthusiasm has steadily increased, along with the prerequisite study debt and collection of textbooks. Tammie's emergency ambulance experience ranges from paramedic, preceptor and trainer, to clinical support as a single responder. Through university lecturing and co-ordination roles, she has been fortunate enough to teach, and continually learn from, paramedics in every Australian state, either in person or online. For the duration of her career, at every level, Tammie has remained fascinated by recurring cultural chatter around the question of what makes a "good" paramedic. Without professing to know the answer, over a decade's worth of scribbled notes, from countless conversations with medics and students have been gathered together in the shape of this book. Written to provide an effortless ongoing tool for self-reflection in every paramedic with a desire to excel in this rewarding role.
