Description

This book is dedicated to the hardworking EMS providers that give one hundred and ten percent every day. Many have given almost everything they had to a complete stranger for the simple reason to help people in need. Over the years, I have seen multiple examples of miracles, but I also have seen many more tragedies that life deals out to the unfortunate. Some days all we can do is our ultimate best and take the outcomes for their best. This book will take you down a pathway of what we will face in the EMS world. It will also show how we can cope with the stress from seeing some of the worst of the injured and complex serious medical emergencies repeatedly.

I will show you the pathways we could take to cope with our stressful lives of helping people in need when we need a break in life. I will take you from a good day then to hell and back again as the book unfolds. Our team effort is the real magic of the whole healing process. Sometimes the healing is done the hard way or maybe it's the best way. I think it's just "Dale's Way." Hold on and get ready for the ride of a life time. I will bring you all back safe. I promise...

Editorial Reviews

I have had the privilege to work with Dale. This book opens up even further to the beauty and ugliness that EMS crews must deal with. The way the book is written makes me feel as though I'm riding alongside the author. A great resource for anyone working in pre-hospital or emergency care; it helps us to realize we are not alone in our feelings with the stuff we see, how to manage PTSD and still work, and how the healing presence of our pets helps us after the hardest shifts. Already looking forward to more books by this author! Warning that if you start reading this book, it will be hard to put down, and you'll want to share it with your colleagues.
