Oh shit, that's okay then. Feel free to conduct some triple bypasses while you're at it too!
The local power plant is also after some nuclear engineers, I'll forward your details. You've used power sockets for your whole adult life so making the electric power should be simple.
Expect a PM from them soon!

He's just some paki migrant brat that's had it in for Jen for some time. Unfortunately a lot of them are just a bunch of misogynistic duds with no game.
If Jen couldn't hook up an ECG after more than an hour's instruction then you'd have to worry, its about a ten or so wires with sensors on them you have to stick in various locations and a box with a graph in it
The real question is when Fledz will vomit on his first mangled patient

Errr.... my major at uni was infectious diseases. I've worked with more disgusting things than you'll ever see and I'm not phased by dead bodies or surgery in any way. I'll be ok
Also LP7 has always been a dick. Why so surprised?

Bahaha, you know all you have to do is put a bunch of stickers on a person, attach the leads from the machine (they are small/portable, you know), then print the strip and interpret it, right? It isn't fucking rocket science. It takes less than 2 minutes. Moron.
And shup up Fledz! You know what I meant.

He probably thinks you mean a defibrillator, not an ECG
Also, fight me

You have to do your Senior First Aid course and weekly or fortnightly meetings/trainings to keep your skills up. You do shifts whenever you can.
St Johns Ambulance service is Australia wide but independent of the actual paramedics that each state has independently. Essentially, you are there to provide emergency care up to a point. When it comes to administering strong drugs or highly technical procedures, by law only the real paramedics can do that (so here it would be the Ambulance Service of NSW). One is the actual one with degree qualified paramedics while St Johns is a volunteer organisation which helps out. The two work very closely together with the real paramedics being in charge, obviously.
It's a really good system as there is always a shortage of paramedics and any help is welcome.
St Johns essentially also do all of the patient transport now so as to free up the NSW ambulances for emergency responses.
Do it if you like, it can be extremely boring however. I used to do it while at university got posted at the MCG each weekend. Had all sorts of cases come in, nothing too major really. Things like people asking for band-aids for blisters and shit. Had to attend to a few fights, got to ride in the little buggy that goes out on the field (that would of been the most exciting thing about the job).

Hah, defibrillators are even simpler to use! Anyone who takes a CPR course learns how to use them.
edit: unless we're talking about the kind of defibrillation done during a cardioversion - that requires much more training, but again - not rocket science.
I will crush you.

That would be mildly insulting from someone cool. As it transpires you are a complete creature.
