...aren't we all trying, and if not, why not? This is however, my water cooler so I will be blogging about politics, faith, pop culture, food and drink, my kids, my work, and sports - which guarantees baseball. If you don't enjoy the water, I won't be offended should you leave, but if you stay please keep your comments civil and provide thoughtful feedback; okay sanity is not required.

Teaching Success
One of the problems with being involved with EMS education and training is does the student get it? Sometimes despite the best intentions, tests, quizzes, and megacodes you don't know if someone "gets it."
Recently I got to hear about a patient who did not compensate post procedure. Instead of the patient continuing to deteriorate though, a group of students I have been working with intermittently for years, sprang into action and executed a pretty good plan of action which resulted in the patient's condition improving dramatically.
Sometimes you don't realize whether or not you are successful, but is great when you get to see it and see the critical thinking post event in your students as they show not only did they get it, but that they want to then take the next step and go even further. These are the days I love.
