Guest guest Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Do I notice some excitement finally starting to develop! I have watched everyone's concern about this and that over the last few days. Maybe just maybe we needed to get all of this aired out so that we can move forward. I am not saying this way or that way is better at the moment. I just think we need to all keep coming up with ideas to improve EMS relationships with one another. Just remember we werent always agree with each other but if we can come to a consensus we can always continue to move forward. Trust me, I dont always agree with Jane, Gene, Dudley, Dr. Bledsoe (shh dont tell him..lol), and others. Just keep it going and I think good will come out of it all.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2005 Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 : I think your doing a good job at listening to us.I would like to see paycheck recovery,especially when the PayDay Law has been tried and failed. I have an employer who owes me $2500, where I came from in California,he would have been arrested for theft with 2x indemnification. This is an issue that has burned many medics and needs to be a retroactive law.

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 It is ok to disagree folks as long as we all understand that we have to work on things together to make everything come to the middle as much as possible if there is no absolute agreement one way or another.

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 Just FYI, I think this next meeting is having to be an emergency meeting due to some Board resignations and such, so we can only put a " member input " line for it I think. I am not sure - is working on the info for posting. However, at the next regularly scheduled BOD meeting, we can take requests for agenda items I am sure.

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 I DEFINITELY won't argue THAT point. I have a son who is a U.S. Army Calvary scout - leaving for his tour in lovely downtown Bagdhad in a couple of weeks. I figure he is fighting for our right to disagree and still be alive when the argument is over, so we all have to learn ways to do it and still be friends afterwards.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 Hi Tom and All, You can add me to the list of those folks that want to help EMSAT get off the ground. Put me down for the Southeast Texas area (Houston/Beaumont). I'm not one that shows up on this list as a " regular, " but I do read it. There have been many wonderful posts on here about EMSAT lately and discussing how we can make our EMS profession better. Tom " the learning medic " and others have stated over and over again, UNITY. I agree. I'm not going to repeat everything that has been said, and I couldn't possibly say it as eloquently as those have already, but I just wanted one more person in the public pot who agrees. As far as EMSAT goes, I was one of those folks a couple of years ago that kept asking " What is EMSAT doing for EMS and me? " It dawned on me, what am I doing for EMS? I haven't done anything for EMS. I've been a non-active member for the last year. After reading all the posts the last several weeks, it dawned on me again, I'm still not doing anything for EMS and being a non-active member is cutting it. I see a lot of people on this List that have an obvious great passion for EMS, but yet want to just talk about how nothing is getting done. It's really simple, the more great minds that come together at one place over and over again to discuss the future of EMS, the better the chance that something will change ... for the better. So those of you who aren't members yet, JOIN and then be ACTIVE! Don't ask yourself, yet, what can EMSAT do for me. Ask yourself how you can use your knowledge and experience in EMS to help EMSAT help EMS, which by the way, will end up helping YOU! I really think the idea of local chapters is the way to go. All of the other Associations I belong to have this set up. It just makes sense. EMSAT can only accomplish what its members accomplish. EMSAT needs your experience and expertise. If you are really that passionate about EMS, isn't it worth a try? Just some of my rambling thoughts on all of this. I'm looking forward to seeing some familiar faces from the past too. And Tom, I've known you for many years, you were a great medic back when and I'm sure you still are today. I really enjoy your posts as well as many others.

Jane -------------- Original message from lisawhir@...: -------------- Hi Tom and All, You can add me to the list of those folks that want to help EMSAT get off the ground. Put me down for the Southeast Texas area (Houston/Beaumont). I'm not one that shows up on this list as a " regular, " but I do read it. There have been many wonderful posts on here about EMSAT lately and discussing how we can make our EMS profession better. Tom " the learning medic " and others have stated over and over again, UNITY. I agree. I'm not going to repeat everything that has been said, and I couldn't possibly say it as eloquently as those have already, but I just wanted one more person in the public pot who agrees. As far as EMSAT goes, I was one of those folks a couple of years ago that kept asking " What is EMSAT doing for EMS and me? " It dawned on me, what am I doing for EMS? I haven't done anything for EMS. I've been a non-active member for the last year. After reading all the posts the last several weeks, it dawned on me again, I'm still not doing anything for EMS and being a non-active member is cutting it. I see a lot of people on this List that have an obvious great passion for EMS, but yet want to just talk about how nothing is getting done. It's really simple, the more great minds that come together at one place over and over again to discuss the future of EMS, the better the chance that something will change ... for the better. So those of you who aren't members yet, JOIN and then be ACTIVE! Don't ask yourself, yet, what can EMSAT do for me. Ask yourself how you can use your knowledge and experience in EMS to help EMSAT help EMS, which by the way, will end up helping YOU! I really think the idea of local chapters is the way to go. All of the other Associations I belong to have this set up. It just makes sense. EMSAT can only accomplish what its members accomplish. EMSAT needs your experience and expertise. If you are really that passionate about EMS, isn't it worth a try? Just some of my rambling thoughts on all of this. I'm looking forward to seeing some familiar faces from the past too. And Tom, I've known you for many years, you were a great medic back when and I'm sure you still are today. I really enjoy your posts as well as many others.

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Can you come to the EMSAT meeting on Aug 4th so we can discuss this as a group? I believe there is an opportunity on the agenda for members to discuss stuff like this with the Board and then we can start working on a plan of action to meet the needs and requests of the membership. So if all of you who are voicing interest in stuff like this, come to the Board meeting so it can be discussed as a group face to face. Jane --------- Re: Re: EMS has a terminal illness.. or does it? Thanks, , for your wonderful comments and offer to help if we do this chapter thing. I got your name in the kitty.
