We Want Steak But Settle For Spam

Now don't get me wrong, Spam can be tasty if done right. When it comes to EMS though it seems we pay more attention and put more energy into topics that really won't help us as professionals. Like Spam that special meat that satisfies for the moment but not what we really want. It seems more commentary is given to whether we are called ambulance drivers or EMT's rather than focusing on topics like intubation success, the drugs we use and treatments we give. Sure it's out there. Just like that nice T Bone steak or fresh lobster. But we settle for the Spam, the stuff that just gets us by, not what really matters and not what we should want as a profession. Join in this weeks discussion and give your opinion on why this is. What can we do to start targeting the real issues facing the EMS profession?
