Lori Hodges, is the author of Shaking in the Forest, Finding Light in the Darkness. She is a former paramedic and firefighter in Colorado and currently works as an emergency manager, recently working on hurricane Milton in Florida.
She talks about trusting your paramedic intuition on scenes and gives a vivid example of how trusting herself on a scene, despite others adamant that there were no other victims on scene, found another ejection victim of a motor vehicle accident
We talk about some of the unexplainable experiences we have as paramedics and how many of us have these similar stories
Lori talks about a feeling she would get the morning of a shift where she would know that a patient would die before it would actually happen and how the feeling would resolve after running the call
I always try to take the patient more seriously when the EMS crews have been concerned enough to put on the defibrillation pads
An important rule in EMS is no running and no yelling. We must be the calm. Lori talks about how this is even more important as an emergency manager. As leaders, we are watched and people take their cues from us. They will tend to mirror our behavior
We have to detach to make sure we take everything in and not get stuck doing one specific task
It is hard to be the one that stands back and doesn’t do the skills as a new paramedic, but it helps you take in the whole picture
Lori dealt with addiction and it’s affects while working at a detox center. She also dealt with it personally in her relationship with her father. She had to learn to set up boundaries with him
Our partners and fellow EMS coworkers are fighting their own battles, remember to have grace for people. Sometimes how they come across is not how they intend
