the Handover – Call for Submissions

View Comments

Have to get in a bit about the Handover before I pop along to England next week.

 the Handover - 8th Edition

This month’s blog carnival the Handover will be hosted here at Happy Medic Head Quarters.  For those of you not sure exactly what in the world we’re handing over, one of our good blog buddies, 999medic.com, founded a blog roundup of sorts called the Handover.  It started as a collection of favorite posts collected by a volunteer host and is now the largest and widest read blog carnival for and by pre-hostipal EMS and ER staff.

 

Past hosts include

  • Emergiblog
  • Happy Medic Headquarters
  • Life Under the Lights
  • Medic999
  • Rapid Response Doc
  • Rescuing Providence
  • Trauma Queen
  •  

    For November’s theme I have chosen “Close Calls.”  The theme is inspired with my own close call, which I have mentioned as the driving force behind starting this therapy experiment we now call the Happy Medic.  I want you to send me a blog post you authored or have read that made you say, “Wow, that was close.”  Perhaps a time you caught a patient right before something happened, maybe a time when you almost got hurt or, perhaps when you did get hurt but it could have been worse.  And as Mark introduced a bit back, feel free to send in anything EMS or ER/A&E related you wrote or enjoyed.  Share.

    A little different than other months, I’ll be busy with Mark for a few more days then off to the UK for my turn in the passenger seat, so get your submissions in early.  The deadline for submissions will be Novmeber 25th, and i will save all submissions to my handy new laptop before boarding the plane home to the USA.  I will arrive home on Thanksgiving, hopefully with a good group of posts to share and be thankful for.  it will be published on the 27th of November.
