Flight Paramedic and Podcast Host, Samantha Brawley
Manage episode 425814755 series 3375246
When I hear the words “flight paramedic” I immediately think of aviator glasses, compact spaces, aircraft propellers, jumpsuits, highly trained professionals, and a general sense of badassery.
Enter Samantha Brawley. As a flight paramedic, she cares for the sickest of the sick, and the occasional walking, talking patient, who may just be her favorite, wink, wink.
We discussed the team she works with, the procedures in her scope of practice, the territory she flies, and the mental capacity it takes to process things she can’t unsee. And then she told us about the camaraderie.
Before flight paramedicine, Sam worked for over a decade in fire and EMS. When she left the 911 system, she missed the shared experiences of getting off shift late, hanging out in the charting room, and talking shit with her co-workers. So, she started the very popular 911 Nonsense podcast and now shares that camaraderie with her guests.
And let’s talk about her guests. Sam has clinched some high-profile guests from James Geering, former firefighter turned podcast host of the Behind the Shield podcast to Jenn Hamilton, L&D nurse, women’s health advocate, and Instagram influencer. However, some of the best guests are everyday men and women who serve humanity, like Ryan, a firefighter battling PTSD and advocating for the mental health of his fellow firefighters, Dr. Macias, a wilderness medicine enthusiast, and Kelly, a NICU respiratory therapist who educates healthcare professionals. There’s one thing for certain, any guest on Sam's podcast is bound to be great.
