Comments on: Could You Do It Again? Would You? http://dagoddess.com/?p=3632 Tue, 21 May 2013 01:39:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: Stu http://dagoddess.com/?p=3632&cpage=1#comment-6129 Stu Wed, 28 Mar 2012 21:30:55 +0000 http://dagoddess.com/?p=3632#comment-6129 I have had similar thoughts in the past. Would I, or even could I, go through paramedic school again? I recall all the flash cards I made up with drug names on one side, and all the product info, dosages, indications, side effects, etc on the back side. While I like to think my brain is still pretty much ok, I know for a fact I am not as sharp as I used to be when it comes to memorization. I've been out of the business now for 25 years. I still have a lot of that information available with instant recall, but have forgotten sooo much - and I am positive I couldn't learn it all from scratch as readily as I did before. At this point, I wouldn't want to either. I have had similar thoughts in the past. Would I, or even could I, go through paramedic school again?
