ParamedicAC 1 Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Hi all, I have seen signs for Doctor, Nurse, Dentist, Ambulance, etc. but can't seem to find a definitive sign for Paramedic. I don't mind finger spelling to clarify my job, but it's a long word to spell and wonder if there's a more concise sign. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites
Marijn 1 Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Hi there, would the sign for ambulance (sirene) and then nurse (cross on outer aspect of non-dominant arm) not cover it? I know a paramedic is not just an 'ambulance nurse', but maybe it covers the meaning sufficiently? I'm a learner, so please don't take my word for gospel... Best wishes, Marijn 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Lola2020 8 Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Hey, A different take on the word. According to google a Pandemic means "(of a disease) prevalent over a whole country or the world." So my guess would be Virus + World and since I guess your talking about the coronavirus I would add Corona + Virus + World Same I'm a learner too, just my thought.....
