Air Force

Tech School Graduation: Phase 2

I am officially an operational member of the world’s greatest Air Force! Just last week, I finally completed Phase 2 of the 4N0 AFSC training and was awarded my occupation badge. For those of you who don’t know, Phase 2 of the 4N0 program is basically clinical rotations at a hospital. You get the chance to work in multiple different clinics/departments to include the Emergency Department, Intensive Care, Family Health, Labor and Delivery and many more. You have a packet of tasks you must accomplish and get signed off by preceptors in each department. Some tasks include starting an IV, giving intramuscular injections, performing an EKG/ECG and collecting blood specimens. The 4N0 scope of practice allows you to do so much more than a civilian EMT’s scope allows. My mother is a nursing school professor at a prestigious nursing school and she’s told me that they don’t even teach IVs in nursing school, which I find fascinating. I am so relieved to be done and am so excited to finally “begin” my career in the Air Force.

Now that I will have a lot more free time, I plan on posting on a more regular basis and FINALLY getting to the YouTube videos that I’ve been promising for months. In the meantime, please comment below any questions you may have about the 4N0 career field, what tech school is like or even BMT:

Tech School Graduation

Quick Update: I graduated Phase One of 4N0 Tech School last month (April 23) YAY! I am currently in Phase Two at a different location- Phase Two is essentially clinical rotations in a hospital. So far it’s been a huge learning experience and very hands on. I have about two more weeks left and then I will be going home on leave and then to my first duty station!

I’ve been so busy I haven’t had time to post much or record any new videos on my YouTube channel but I promise that once I start to have a little more free time I will tell you guys everything!

I am an Airman

I made it! I graduated Basic Military Training and boy does it feel amazing.

I graduated BMT January 18th 2019. As you can tell that was a few weeks ago. I have been so busy getting my life together and settling into Tech School life that I haven’t had a chance to blog. I have so much to say and plan on writing as much as my schedule allows these next few months. I also will be uploading some BMT specific vlogs on my YouTube channel as soon as I can. Three major things I want to say in this quick post are:

  1. I got the job I wanted!!! If you’ve been following me you’d know I went in open general with civilian medical experience. Well I got Aerospace Medical Service (4N0X1)-my top pick! So I am now at Fort Sam for Tech School.
  2. Two weeks into Tech School and I already know my first duty assignment! I won’t say exactly where BUT I will say that it was on my “Dream Sheet” so I am psyched to say the least.
  3. If you are getting ready to ship out to BMT I just want to say don’t listen to what other people have to say about the experience- it is what YOU make of it.

Stay tuned!
