Über diesen Titel
Nine months of tying tourniquets and pushing new medications, of IVs, chest compressions, and defibrillator shocks - that was Kevin Grange's initiation into emergency medicine when, at age 36, he enrolled in the "Harvard of paramedic schools": UCLA's Daniel Freeman paramedic program, long considered one of the best and most intense paramedic training programs in the world.
Few jobs can match the stress, trauma, and drama that a paramedic calls a typical day at the office, and few educational settings can match the pressure and competitiveness of paramedic school. Blending months of classroom instruction with ER rotations and a grueling field internship with the Los Angeles Fire Department, UCLA's paramedic program is like a mix of boot camp and med school. It would turn out to be the hardest thing Grange had ever done, but also the most transformational and inspiring.
An in-depth look at the trials and tragedies that paramedic students experience daily, Lights and Sirens is ultimately about the best part of humanity - people working together to help save a human life.

The book is not a story, it is a memoir. It takes you through the process of becoming a paramedic and what that entails. Lay people will be left with a heightened respect for EMS and medical professionals in general, but they will not find an entertaining book here. It is filled with detailed procedures and drug protocols. With sequences of split second decisions a paramedic must be able to make under stress, and the sometimes seemingly small mistakes having big consequences. I think this book is predominantly intended for paramedics, paramedic or EMT students and medical professionals. Anyone interested in going through the training to become an EMT or a paramedic, you should definitely read this book.
