Unfortunately, life is not always generous. And so, quite often people lose their lives way too early. It can be due to an illness, an unfortunate accident, or anything else.
Luckily, every so often, when someone’s life is hanging by a thread, there’s still a possibility to save them. In fact, there are professions whose aim is to do that. For instance, paramedics. That’s why Bored Panda reached out to one of them - The Salty Paramedic.

If saving lives isn’t stressful enough itself, it also might take a toll on a paramedic’s mental well-being. As The Salty Paramedic said, “I have a beautiful, loving family, but sometimes it’s hard seeing tragedies happen at work and coming home and being that happy and present father and husband they deserve.” Luckily, he also pointed out that he seems to be handling this pretty well.
Yet, not every paramedic does. For some, the things they see and do can get to them so badly that they develop mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, or even PTSD.

But to save a life, a person doesn’t have to be a paramedic. And today’s list proves that. Sometimes all you need is common sense and compassion. For example, helping someone to avoid traffic or calling an ambulance when they need it.

Our interviewee agrees with the sentiment that knowing first-aid techniques is crucial: “I have been on a lot of calls where because of a civilian rendering first aid prior to our arrival, the outcome to the patient was great.”
