Ambulance paramedics save several lives a day. They don't have time for tests and diagnostic equipment. In just minutes, at the scene of an accident or a house call, they must make a preliminary diagnosis and figure out what can help. Should they give an injection, administer pills, hospitalize, or keep the patient at home? This decision determines whether the person survives until they reach the hospital. Ambulance paramedics save lives after accidents, burns, fractures, and heart attacks. And yet, in such difficult work, they rarely earn the respect of their patients. Instead of gratitude, they accept aggression, threats, and complaints about their assistance from those they've come to save.
Today's guest is Nadezhda Ivanova. She's worked as an ambulance paramedic for 18 years, teaches, and runs the NGO SignalSOS. Over the years, she's encountered aggressive patients, survived a knife attack, delivered babies right on call, and visited disadvantaged families who were forcibly holding their own child.
In this episode, Nadezhda shared numerous stories from her experience as an ambulance paramedic, including the terrifying patients she encounters on calls and the general public's attitude toward ambulances. She explained the difference between an urgent and an emergency call and the different types of resuscitation vehicles available. She touched on the issue of ambulances often not being let through on the road and discussed her feelings about the requirement for crews to wear shoe covers. She shared how the paramedic profession has changed over 18 years of work, and how her morale and psychological state have suffered. How she fought the desire to leave the profession, and what helps her cope with burnout.
