If you haven&#8217;t listened to Episode 21:  &#8220;Medic Up! to Nursing Bridge Program aka: Chris from @Medic Up! is Going to Nursing School&#8221; go listen. Then go listen to Episode 22: &#8220;Medics and Nurses&#8221; to find out some of the nice things nurses say about EMTs and Medics when they&#8217;re not around.<br>Well, now it&#8217;s my turn to answer some questions nurses have about EMTs, paramedic and EMS in general.  Real talk ya&#8217;ll. If you&#8217;ve been in EMS more than 10 minutes, each one of Chelsie&#8217;s questions are 100% relatable and spot on! If you&#8217;re in EMS and these questions don&#8217;t make you laugh, ask your partner to adjust the stick in your ass and lighten up.
