This year, I am celebrating ten years as an EMT. However, I am transitioning careers to become a high school health teacher full time (T2T program). Once I complete my Master's degree in Public Health I will be pursuing a position as an adjunct health sciences instructor at Indiana University Kokomo during the Summer. In my free time, I enjoy traveling and taking cruises, spending time with my family, friends, and boyfriend, and playing with my golden retriever and two cats.
I was the bullied kid (for really no good reason other than people "following the herd") and who no one thought would amount to anything. But thank you. Now, I get to take care of people possibly on the worst day of their lives, and I have more empathy for people who are having a mental health crisis.
Carrie's Latest Interactions
I was one Jo's EMT partners in Lafayette. She was one of the first medics that I worked with. She taught me a lot of things in EMS and was always willing to teach if you wanted to learn. She was firm but had a heart of gold and could really make you laugh. One of my favorite memories of Jo was when we were on a run (not patient loaded) and I had to take a unfamiliar back road because the intersection we needed to go through was closed off. There was a bunny hill that wasn't very visible until you came right up on it. We got a tiny bit air born with our box truck. I was expecting a "hey easy" or an "oof!" from Jo. Instead she laughed. Without missing a beat I said, "Well Jo, looks like you just became a Flight Medic. You got your wings today." We both had a really good laugh on that one. We would talk about her grandson, the old "mast trouser" times of EMS and talk about her cats. One of her cats she called, "Pita." I asked, "Why Pita? As in Pita bread?" She said it was short for "Pain in the @$$." Her other cat was called "Honey Bunny." She knew how to make you blush in the face and laugh. For those who knew Jo and know what I am talking about, I will it leave to your imagination. She was a fine Medic and truly cared about her patients. One I truly miss working with.
