  1. We are a hospital based service and I was asleep in my bunk room one night-- and started to hear a baby cry. I got up to try to find the little one thanking some one droped a baby off never found it and it stoped. I asked a coworker about it and was told that are bunk rooms was part of L&D back in the day and that one was the baby's that did not make it. We still hear it some times

  2. Dustdevil I have to disagree with you. We have alot of EMT/Paramedic retires around here due to hazardous duty retirement. Work about 20 years and your done that also gives you medical benefits for the rest your life. However I note not all of Ambulance Services in the area have it because it dose cost alot of money. Not to step on your toes dust just thought I give a little information

  3. vs-eh? you most be one of the rudest person I have seen on here--- Pt was invalid in a one car MVC in the over night

    pt found next morning 13 hrs after the MVC car was on top of his ABD pt leg was pined not crushed against a root and the car

    stopping blood flow and compartment syndrome started. pt his being treated for a compartment syndrome to his leg at hospital--- vs-eh sorry for not giveing all the info. and yes i still have alot to learn never stop learning

  4. compartment syndrome is the build up of lactic acid. and when released acidosis happens we had a case the other day. a car was on top of a man for at least 13 hrs when he was found the next morning. and form my understand sodium bicarb help by leveling out the PH form a lactic acidosis, and it is more in the arms and legs

  5. Start two large bore IV with LR, I would thank of flying the Pt out due to the MOI and put the PT on 15L NRB mask due to the fact he is talking and has a patten airway. I would check the breath sounds dose dose he have JVD. Repeat trauma assessment and I would fly pt out to the trauma center

  6. I have been in EMS 9 mo. When I frist started the Paramedics and other EMT tested me. At times made me fill like a piece a Sh(&. But would you know after some time of them doing that it made me fill better about the job a I do. It's my turn now
