I have had to bag patients and my last one involved c-spine. But in the two months I have had two serious calls Diabetic and seizure. I work Graveyard so I don't see as much as some of the other guys do on other shifts.

We have 3 EMTs staffed on our busiest nights. Its a good step while your waiting for call backs from ambulance companies.

I have been working at a casino for two months now. If any event that requires CPR, BVM, AED, dropping an OPA, NPA, sever bleeding or other major trauma, I think 911 would of been called immediately upon notification of the incident. I doubt there is med control, so the most I seen a EMT doing is conducting a primary assessment, provide oxygen if they have it, and get a sample and opqrst history. I'm interested in finding out what they can carry and what they can do. They guys I seen carried large pouches, inside could be a first aid kit, or a BVM for all I know. Given that is with security, I am guessing the pay is only at or about 12-15 dollars an hour.ĭoes anyone know what type of equipment they can carry, at least EMT related. Even as a mall security guard before, I responded many medical calls. Because they do have a dual role, I'm sure they get an equal balance of medical calls and security related calls. I know the casino EMTs that I have seen, and actually Akulahawk, they are around the Sacramento County area, and some in Vegas, are with the Casino security department. Do you fall under some type of medical direction as well? Do you get a chance to use an airway adjunct, BVM, sunction, or even provide oxygen? Also whats the training and continuing training like. Being an on site EMT, it appears that they have only limited equipment to work with and usually have to call 911 as a precaution. Everything taught in my EMT class was considering you were working in an ambulance or hospital environment where you had full use of the equipment. My main questions focuses on scope of practice. My personal impression on what I have seen, though I have never actually spoken to any of the employees before, is that they provide the routine first aid/CPR/AED to basic slip and falls, intoxication, or generaly individuals not feeling well. What kind of calls do they respond to? Whats their usual scope of practice, and do you thinks its a good work environment. I am interested in working as an EMT in a casino. I was wondering if anyone has ever worked as an EMT in a casino or some other physical property (non-ambulance, fire, or hospital) area that hires their own EMTs.
