Produktbeschreibung

Most of us are just trying to get through the day, but paramedics are often extremely harsh on themselves. We have high expectations and feel a pressure to have all the answers.

Add to this the training we receive from day one, to respond quickly, to be ever-vigilant, to 'switch on' without notice, and then make difficult logistical and clinical decisions, for an organisation that doesn't seem to care for the carers when they fall, and we are all a recipe for disaster. Paramedics, firies and police have front row seats to the greatest shit row on earth.

Paramedics, firies and police have front row seats to the greatest shit row on earth.

The question is not 'why' we break; it's why it sometimes takes so long…

From high functioning, multi-tasking, goat-owning paramedic, to broken, blubbering mess on the side of the road, Kim's journey through PTSD, anxiety and depression after 20 years as a paramedic has more ups and downs than a toilet seat.
