Working as a paramedic can be tough, mentally and physically. The number of medics that have left the road due to injury is outstanding. As many as 40% can be on modified/light duties due to injuries at one time.
Most medics can retire after 30 years of service as long as they've reached age 55 (it's actually a combination of age plus years service). Not too many go past 30 years unless it is to reach 55. We do have one medic though that is finally going to retire shortly after 41 years! This video shows him and others doing what we do best. After all these years he can still be caring and compassionate. It's just too bad he's a Habs fan.
Video is slightly graphic due to blood.
