Expanding on their definition above, Hunter and colleagues (2019) offer several theoretical frameworks by which situational awareness can be understood, of which they argue that Mica Endsley’s three-level framework of situational awareness (comprised of identification, interpretation, and prediction) is most applicable to paramedicine.

My posts dwindled because PTSD sucked all my passion out of paramedicine. When I first wanted to become a paramedic, I wanted to learn all I could about paramedicine. The truth can heal. The truth is, I have PTSD. I had trouble writing in this blog ever since I started getting PTSD symptoms. Can I handle the stress?

But if we truly want paramedicine to flourish, then we need to identify those who do not meet the standard and move them along. Why do we tolerate their garbage? We know it hurts our profession; we just don’t want to confront it. Because it’s not popular, and it’s easier to go along and get along. Just like every other profession.
