2 of them stabbed while attending a call.

Man tasered and arrested.

What the fuck is wrong with people? They are there to help people.

They used to do this around Wood End with the fire department. Start a fire just so an engine would show up and they can throw rocks at it.

I can’t even begin to comprehend the mindset TBH. I genuinely understand the kid who wanted to throw concrete into the M6 better.

I can't comprehend somebody saying Fire Department in the UK.

I worry about my niece, Karen, who trained as a Paramedic. She grew tired of it because she is a bit of a "nutter" - she loves doing crazy things, so she is now a member of the elite HART team - Hazardous Area Response Team. They go in where ordinary paramedics might have to wait for other services (e.g. fire & rescue). She's still a paramedic but now enjoys the more 'dangerous' side of the job!

Hazardous Area Response Team
The HART team are a group of paramedics who are trained to go into the 'hot zone' of incidents.
Traditionally, paramedics have always had to wait for other services such as a fire and rescue service to bring patients from the heart of an incident to the edge of the inner cordon.
However, experts in mainstream ambulance services, clinicians and specialists in the CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear) fields suggested that not being able to operate in the 'hot zone' meant the ambulance service was being impeded.
By working at the centre of an event, the ambulance service could save more lives during the early stages of a major incident.
Subsequent experience from the terrorist bombings in London on 7th July 2005 proved this to be correct.
UK ambulance service HART teams now work alongside the other emergency services at the centre of serious accidents of threats to public health.

I think she wants to do this work because her mum (my sister) was killed in a car smash when she was just two, and I think she just wants to do her bit, so to speak. It goes without saying that I am extremely proud of her.

Love that you are proud of her. I’m proud of mine too for various reasons
