In this week’s Inside EMS podcast, co-hosts Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson respond to a listener email sent after last week’s show about difficult partners. The listener wrote about a new paramedic failing to utilize the knowledge of a 12-year EMS partner when it comes to navigating the system. Rather then listen to the experienced partner, the paramedic would rather use his cellphone for navigation.

Chris and Kelly also discuss the following news stories:
