Podcasts about emt paramedic

Welcome back to the Autism Little Learners Podcast! If you haven't listened to Part 1 of this conversation on autism and water safety yet, be sure to go check that out first—it's episode #125. In that episode, I sat down with Dayna Harvey, a certified swim instructor who specializes in working with autistic children, and Andy Roszak, an emergency preparedness expert with experience at FEMA and the CDC. Together, we shared eye-opening statistics and essential first steps families can take to begin protecting their children around water. In this episode—Part 2—we're diving even deeper. You'll hear more from Dayna and Andy about why swim lessons alone aren't enough, how to use visual supports to reinforce water safety, and the critical role of community awareness in preventing drowning. Whether you're a parent, caregiver, teacher, or therapist, this conversation is full of actionable strategies and resources to help keep autistic children safe. Let's get started. Bio Andy Roszak, JD, MPA, EMT-Paramedic is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Institute for Childhood Preparedness, where he leads efforts to strengthen emergency planning, disaster recovery, and resilience across early childhood and community-based settings. With more than 20 years of experience in public health, emergency management, and health policy, Andrew has worked at the local, state, federal, and nonprofit levels-supporting initiatives that help communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from crises. Andy is a frequent contributor and subject matter expert for Sesame Street in Communities, where he supports efforts around preparedness, disaster response, and resilience for families and caregivers. A former firefighter, paramedic, and hazardous materials technician, he has also served as a Health Policy Fellow in the U.S. Senate, a senior advisor at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and as a Senior Preparedness Advisor supporting Super Bowl 46 and the Indianapolis 500. Andy is an award-winning author of the Preparing for the Unexpected book series, and his work has been recognized by organizations including the Red Cross, the City of El Paso, and Sesame Street, where he was named a Sesame Street Hero. His focus is on practical, real-world strategies to help individuals, organizations, and communities be better prepared for whatever challenges may come. Andy is the proud father of two daughters, aged 1 and 4. Dayna Harvey is a Water Safety and Drowning prevention educator as well as a Swim Lesson Teacher, who specializes in working with children with autism and their parents. She has been teaching swim lessons for the past 35 years and is certified through the Red Cross as well as a program called AutismSwim. Dayna is on a MISSION to educate and empower parents with information, strategies and hands on tools to help them keep their children safer in and around water because we MUST eradicate childhood drowning. The autism community saw more drownings in 2024 than in any year prior and that has intensified Dayna's commitment to reach more parents with her message and her methods. Dayna and the Waiting Whale kids, who she created to help engage both parents and children in the education process, have developed the "Where there is water, I will WAIT!" program and The Waiting Whales - Water Safety Kit Water Safety With Miss Dayna Links: www.WaterSafetyWithMissDayna.com www.Facebook.com/WaterSafetyWithMissDayna www.Instagram.com/WaterSafetyWithMissDayna Miss Dayna's Water Safety Kit: https://watersafetywithmissdayna.com/water-safety-kit Institute For Childhood Preparedness Links: https://www.childhoodpreparedness.org/ Free Safety-Related Social Stories: https://www.childhoodpreparedness.org/printables Takeaways Water safety is crucial for all children, especially autistic children. Visual cues and predictable routines enhance learning for children. Creating a waiting area can significantly reduce drowning risks. Parents must be fully attentive when children are around water. Consistency in teaching water safety is key to success. Using a water safety kit can help establish safe practices. Children can learn to wait before entering water environments. Swim lessons should focus on both water safety and swimming skills. Parents should evaluate their home environment for water hazards. Empowering parents with knowledge is essential for preventing drownings.

We need to remember that paramedic and EMT's are solely focused on emergency medicine vs RN's or even PA's who are trained in general medicine then learn how to do EM later onLearning sick vs not sick is a skill that develops with time, it's not always easyGestalt can be an important factor in your assessment but don't trust it all the time, it can lead you astrayA negative work-up does not always mean there isn't something dangerous going onRecognizing your biases will help protect you from making a mistake or overlooking somethingAdvice for the newbies:Have humility when you are new, be willing to be taughtNever stop learningBe proud when you do perform wellDon't trust your gestalt when you are new. Take every patient seriouslyKeep a journalBe honest, do what you document and document what you do, admit your mistakes quicklyTaking ownership over mistakes helps you learn and gives you more respect than passing the buckThe call you are going to is the call you are supposed to go to. That is where you are meant to go. No patient is a waste of time. That patient deserves your undivided attention Too many people hear the other exciting calls dropping nearby and they become distracted from what they are currently doingPeople are put in your path for a reasonAlex talks about a night he ran 3 GSW's and had to use good coping skills to recoverSometimes the lower acuity patients can rejuvenate youRunning only high acuity will burn you out too, take some joy in the less stressful callsAppreciate the highs and lowsSupport the showFull show notes can be found here: Episodes - Practical EMS - Content for EMTs, PAs, ParamedicsMost efficient online EKG course here: Practical EKG Interpretation - Practical EMS earn 4 CME and learn the fundamentals through advanced EKG interpretation in under 4 hours.

Welcome back to the Autism Little Learners Podcast. Today, I'm joined by two incredible guests—Dayna Harvey, a certified swim instructor who specializes in teaching autistic children, and Andy Roszak, an emergency preparedness expert who has worked with FEMA and the CDC. Together, we're diving into a topic that's incredibly important—and honestly, one that doesn't get talked about enough: water safety for autistic children. As a speech-language pathologist and someone who's worked closely with autistic children for over two decades, I've seen just how real the risks are. Drowning is one of the leading causes of accidental death for autistic kids, and it's something we have to bring more awareness to. In this episode, we're not just sharing facts and statistics—we're getting personal and practical. Dayna and Andy offer eye-opening insight and simple, proactive strategies that parents, caregivers, and educators can use right away. We'll talk about risk assessments, layers of protection, communication tools, and the role of community awareness in preventing tragedies. My goal with this conversation is to empower you with actionable steps so you can feel more confident and prepared when it comes to water safety. Let's work together to protect and support our little learners—not just in the classroom, but in every part of their lives.

Autistic children are 160 times more likely to drown than their neurotypical peers. 50% of autistic children have a tendency to wander or elope. Drowning is not a child problem; it is an adult problem. Parents need to be proactive in water safety education. Water safety education is different from swimming lessons. Visual supports and predictable routines are essential for teaching water safety. Community involvement is crucial in preventing drowning incidents. Layers of protection are needed with it comes to water safety. Teaching children to wait and understand boundaries around water is vital. Fear should not prevent families from enjoying water activities; education is key.

With all these extra roles and responsibilities, I will always recommend you eventually getting your Paramedic certification as that combined with 911 experience will grant you access to the most opportunity. Let me know what type of EMS job you currently have and what your plans are for the future! Be great, Evan, The Paramedic Coach®#firedepartment #ems #emt

Chief Ron Warren shares the valuable information about drone services provided by the North Central Pennsylvania Unmanned Emergency Services Department While presenting a situational awareness program for the Fireman's Association of Tioga County, Pennsylvania, one of the participants was Ron Warren.  Ron is the founder and Department Chief of North Central PA Unmanned Emergency Services. He is a full-time state law enforcement officer and a veteran of the US Army, where he served two combat tours in Afghanistan. Prior to becoming a police officer in 2015, he was a civilian and military flight paramedic. He has been involved in emergency services since 1994.    The use of unmanned and remote technology in support of public safety is quickly gaining traction as a situational awareness enhancer. Incident commanders can gain a comprehensive on-scene perspective that has not been readily available in the past, leading to more informed decision-making and ultimately, enhanced safety and effectiveness of personnel and operations.    During this interview we discuss: How unmanned technology is being integrated into public safety agencies and operations.   How Unmanned Aerial Systems (Drones) are regulated for emergency services and public safety organizations.   Why a department, such as North Central PA Unmanned Emergency Services, would form as a stand-alone department instead of just integrating into a well-established fire or rescue department.   The behind the scenes operations that are required for a safe and effective drone response.   How unmanned technology can be used as a recruiting and retention tool for the next generation of emergency responders.   About the Host Richard B. Gasaway, PhD, CSP is widely considered a trusted authority on human factors, situational awareness and the high-risk decision making processes used in high-stress, high consequence work environments. He served 33 years on the front lines as a firefighter, EMT-Paramedic, company officer, training officer, fire chief and emergency incident commander.  His doctoral research included the study of cognitive neuroscience to understand how human factors flaw situational awareness and impact high-risk decision making.   Contact us www.SAMatters.comwww.RichGasaway.com612-548-4424 (office)   Let's Get connected Facebook: SAMatters LinkedIn: Rich Gasaway LinkedIn: Situational Awareness Matters Twitter: Rich Gasaway Youtube: SAMattersTV itunes: SAMatters Radio Stitcher Radio: SAMatters Radio Google Play: SAMatters Radio iHeart Radio: SAMatters Radio   Firefighter Near Miss Reporting System http://www.firefighternearmiss.com/ The SAMatters Show is the longest running, fastest growing, safety focused weekly program on the Internet.

The first episode of the podcast that is transmitted LIVE. We connect our conversation about the pediatric patient from last episode with a call review of a very sick 5 year old. The crew's limited ability to practice their pediatric physical exam and treatments only create an atmosphere for mistakes to occur when dealing with the pediatric patient. And mistakes are not short in this call review.

After a very dark discovery involving intubation, Gerard & Mike began to discuss the pitfalls that EMS has with intubations. We both felt that this conversation reserved a place on the show. Taking a seriously hard look into why EMS first pass success is so abysmal & maybe some things we providers can do about it.

These calls are one in a million. None of them are ever the same and most will break a providers mind. We open up a hard hitting honest discussion about MCI's (Mass Casualty Incidents), how providers need to prepare for them, how they should be run and what to expect afterwards. This episode cuts deep for two of our hosts and true feelings fly.

Some people call it auto-pilot. It's that ability to arrive at a scene and immediately go to work. That's a learned skill, and it has a place on the fireground. But another learned skill that may be even more important is the ability to analyze decisions before they're made. You may know it by a more familiar term, situational awareness. Most firefighters believe they have it already, and many do. Some really don't. But just like anything else, you can develop it, or improve on what you have. The difference between situational awareness on the fireground and in other jobs is, of course, that people can get hurt or die if it's not done well on this job. My guest today is an expert in helping firefighters build their situational awareness skills and he has some tips that may make yours a bit better. Doctor Richard Gasaway is the President of Situational Awareness Matters. He leads a team of expert instructors who train and consult on safety and leadership topics. He's written 7 books related to situational awareness, high-risk decision making and leadership, He served 33 years as a firefighter, EMT-Paramedic, company officer, training officer, fire chief and incident commander.

This conversation was so powerful that it had both of us welling up. Joining me in the booth was former Fire Chief and lifelong first responder, Rich Gasaway. It's so fascinating to think about individuals in those roles that we often take for granted until we need them, and it was so beautiful to hear Rich describe the work that he does, how he got into it, and how he stays in it. I will routinely return to a quote he shared – “don't ever judge the people by the chapter of their life that you happen to stumble into when you respond to a call.” This is advice we can all take to heart. Rich has seen a lot in his time and is doing some incredible work with high-risk-decision-making and helping us identify our patterns. He's a wealth of wisdom and you won't want to miss this episode!   About the Guest:  Rich Gasaway is widely considered a trusted authority on human factors, situational awareness and the high-risk decision-making processes used in high-stress, high consequence work environments. He served 33 years on the front lines as a firefighter, EMT-Paramedic, company officer, training officer, fire chief and emergency incident commander. His doctoral research included the study of cognitive neuroscience to understand how human factors flaw situational awareness and impact high-risk decision making. He has authored and 6 books and his training programs have been delivered to more than 90,000 students worldwide. In 2019, Rich sent six weeks walking 500+ miles on the Camino De Santiago.

My first book, Leading Imperfectly: The value of being authentic for leaders, professionals, and human beings, is available wherever people buy books. I speak internationally to willing and unwilling attendees about authenticity, vulnerability, and leadership. My clients include American Express, General Electric (GE), Accenture, Yale University, The Ohio State University, and many others. As a speaker, I am doing the two things I loves the most: making people think and making people laugh!  I host my own events multiple times a year. They are 2-day events called Living Imperfectly Live (and sometimes they are 1-day virtual events). They are a space where humans from every walk of life can come together to be part of a community on the pursuit of badassery. The goal is to help attendees start living the life we say we want to live. Alas, you're here because of an idea I had a number of years ago and didn't think I was good enough to pull it off. I finally acted on it and alas Diner Talks with James was born! As you can see from what I do in my professional life, Diner Talks is alligned with everything I believe in and teach.  If this wasn't dry enough, and you would like to know more info about my speaking, events, or coaching feel free to check out my website: JamesTRobo.com.
