There's a lot to be learned from the 5 rules as well as from the comments following them. The EMT spot is my new homepage, for sure. Another fantastic read.

Nobody explains the concept quite as well as Thom Dick. @Chris Nice perspective. And perhaps we should care for them as if they are our own. @Charles I second the recommendation on reading “People Care”. Nobody explains the concept quite as well as Thom Dick.

All of these are good points, but remember we are always Teaching, and forming the next generation of EMT's and Medics. We need to not be like the old "Burned out" 20 plus years Grumpy old fart's and remember what an old Medic told me once. Every one no matter how Drunk, Sick, or out of their minds they are is someones Mom, Dad, Son, Daughter, Husband, Wife, Grandmother, Grandfather ect, Treat them as such.

I have been doing this longer than some of you have been alive and EMS providers around the world continue to be dragged down by the same things. God knows that I have felt like Buckman so many times in the past. But, we have been complaining about these same issues as long as there have been people providing prehospital care. Yet, we still line up and compete for the few jobs in EMS. What does that say about us as people? Everyone out there needs to hear Thom Hillsons talk on "People Care" to gain a better insight and understanding on how to care for our fellow man.
