Publisher's summary
- Dr. Tiff Bombard, Emergency Room Physician
Ever wonder what it’s like to be an EMT? Come on author Chris Treece’s ambulance ride. Experience his first frightening call, do CPR on a clammy chest, experience driving an ambulance (it’s fun!), train to be a crew chief, get used to gruesome death, meet the tragic people he could not help and the people who helped him – like the pretty cop who saved him from an assault. Discover his joys of ‘rescue dating’ and all-night parties of EMTs, cops and firemen. Finally, experience the growth of a young man whose education on the streets made him stronger and wiser than his years.
Author Chris Treece was taught the EMT class by Emergency Care co-author Michael O’Keefe, a fellow member of his ambulance squad. After Treece’s EMT years, he worked as a journalist, Emmy-award winning PBS TV producer, a Hollywood screenwriter and a marketing director. He has the rare experience and ability to tell his wild tales. Climb aboard!
