Bryan also began his job as a resident today. The first week seems to be mostly an introduction to the job.
Rob was wishing last night that he'd had a little more of that from his new employer. He did an all-day ride-along on Friday and he was scheduled for a normal shift today. I'm resisting the temptation to call or text him this evening...
I would think his experience will count for something when he is working. Does he work with one or two other people in the ambulance?
Yes, DR Jane, I'm sure his experience contributed to their decision to have him do only 13 hours of ride-along. He was most concerned about company-specific procedures and protocols. At his former job it was just him and an EMT. I don't know the set-up with the new company.
We'll find out more on Saturday when we all go out to dinner to celebrate Father's Day. We won't go to nice restaurants on the actual day (nor Mother's Day).
