I am an Army medic currently deployed till Oct 06 in Baghdad, Iraq. I have an EMT-B and CPR credintials. I am very fluent in Arabic and know a little Spanish.
I am stationed in Brook Army Medical Center(BAMC) in Ft. Sam Houston, TX. I volunteered for deployment as soon as I found out my job at BAMC was basicaly giving IVs, checking vital signs and stock, restock, clean patients and some of the most mundane tasks you can imagine. I am deployed with 10th CSH out of Ft Carson, CO. I work as a medic in the ER of Ibn Sinah Hospital in Baghdad. I have learned and mastered several skills beyond my scope of practice back in the states. I take pride in providing emergancy level care to our troops. And since I am a fluent speaker of Arabic, my team relies on my when we get local national patients.
My estimated time in service(ETS) will end on Aug, 08. I am interested in persuing contract work, preferably with the State Department, in Kuwait or Iraq. Since I haven't done any contract work in the past, I would be interested in networking and getting first hand advice THAT WILL SET ME UP FOR SUCCESS IN THE OVERSEAS CONTRACT WORK.
Please note that I am currently serving in Baghdad from Oct, 05 till Oct, 06.
