I love my job. I truly enjoy going to work and being part of the controlled pandemonium. The IVDA in 12 that was given Narcan by EHS and arrived awake enough to grab his full syringe and start injecting again. The sound of swear words wafting through the department and the sights and smells of human waste products exuding through all body orifices. Sometimes it is overwhelming: the noise, the demands, and the sadness of the conditions that people end up in.
