  1. This is nothing new have seen and read many stories such as this from both the private sector an municipal. Having no idea what the punishment policies are there I will not comment on that. Can gather there were circumstances involved there that were not published that led up poor judgement being made on that call (what transpired on original scene) Dwayne your amazed that there now on a fire truck or that the punishment was to leanent. Could you clarify

    Thanks

  2. Why i see the point on dead is dead. Being an instructor for AHA in CPR PALS an ACLS I am happy to teach these do to the fact that it may save some ones family member from the darkside. I am guessing you never had a pt that came back to see you after a save an thank you. I also have dealt in many cases where just going through the motions has provided the families with the knowledge that ever thing was done for there loved one.

    Why the AHA does make money on all that you mentioned they also support many studies that provide us as providers with better options for survivability. They also sponsor many organizations with funding to provide the ability to teach the public proper methods of cpr and increase patient out comes.

    I ask you one question would you like every thing done on you or a loved one in the event of sudden cardiac arrest. We here in mass have the option as providers to not resuscitate under our protocols. That is where the decision should be made not by individuals who don't believe in working certain cardiac arrest

    Its to bad that its not a cut and dry option but that is life and every one deserves that chance at life. I am happy to give my dough to the AHA if it means that one persons walks out of the hospital. Thats what its about.
