Both jobs could be seen as difficult for a pump, but she manages fine.I don't know too much about firefighting.. The only thing I would know about to be considered is... Heat.. Is there any chance of the actual pump when it attached under clothing become hot..(i take it not, as you should have full protective wear).. And water... Any chance of it coming in to contact with excessive water. Accuchek wired pump is not guaranteed to be waterproof.The other consideration, is I was thoroghly and have showers every other day when I change cannula.. If you shower every day then a pump like an omnipod would be a consideration to make because of disconnecting pumps each shower time or bath time.... Only tskes seconds when used to it.. But just another consideration..Sent from the <a href="http://www.diabetes.co.uk/app/?utm_source=sig&utm_medium=txt&utm_campaign=appsig" target="_blank">Diabetes Forum App</a></blockquote>
