Description

In this episode, we’re busting some of the most common medical myths floating around EMS—and breaking down the why behind what we should be doing instead. From misunderstood medications to outdated practices that just won’t die, we’re digging into the evidence, the history, and the truth behind those things you’ve heard on shift a hundred times. Because good medicine means questioning what you think you know.

As always, if you have a story to tell—funny, wild, heartbreaking, or unforgettable—you can share it through our website. We’d love to feature it on a future episode.
