  1. Just to name my few. . . . . On shootings with possible DOAs involved: "Billy the kid" ~ Chris LeDoux After patient pronounced, "The Dance" ~ Garth Brooks "Tears in Heaven" ~ Eric Clapton In General "Life is a highway" ~ Chris LeDoux Version Codes "Fever" ~ Garth Brooks "Hooked on an 8 second ride" ~ Chris LeDoux (Azcep, you gotta hear that version!)
  2. On our volunteer dept, we are allowed to respond in our personal vehicle. I only do so IF our squad responds limited OR need more people. Our Volunteer dept. covers our vehicles when operating as an emergency vehicle. I don't have any lights on my truck. I will soon be carrying my own basic bag with everything needed exept for O2. Atleast I know I'm prepared if anything happens out on the road till EMS arrives.
  3. Whats' the difference between DMAT and MRC? Is there any other agencies that uses EMTs? Does anyone serve on any agencies? I've been thinking about joining them.
  4. I agree with all of you. A list of occurances is solid concrete. Taping her radio dialogue? I'd have that taped by the dispatcher. That way she won't know that she is being recorded. The whole group needs to confront her, not just one person with the supervisor. If they can get rid of her, I'll be glad to fill in for the first part of the week! LOL
  5. While we are talking radios, Does anyone have thier own portable that they own? Our volunteer fire dept uses Kenwood.
  6. What was the patient doing the day before? Is there any heart desease that runs in the family? What is NKDA? Over excertion of muscle movement?
  7. I would like Vitals, SAMPLE and OPQRST.
  8. Thankyou for making it more clear for me to understand. I look forward to more of your scenarios.
  9. Heres' what I'm thinking: I suspected osteoporosis in the knees causing the pain. The infection was another posibility that may also cause the pain. Could the Pt be loosing elasticity in his knees? Inflamation of the knees? Can you give me SAMPLE, and OPQRST? I'm only a basic. I don't understand the following what was said about the lab tests: More labs come rolling in: PT-12, INR- normal per your labs controls, PTT-35, NH3-13, tyrponin 1-0, tryponin t-0, myoglobin-35. Your partner orders an ESR for the heck of it and you get a result of 40. NA-140/ K-4/ CL- 101/ Co2- 25/BGL- 115/ BUN- 8.1/Creat- 0.8 WBC 10/Hbg 12.6/ Hct 40.2/Plt 220 Tilts, UA, and UDS are negative. Can you please explain these? I would like to know what they are and what they mean.
  10. With this patient, I'm guessing possible bilateral osteoperosis or infection developing in the knees, maybe the knees could be pinching blood vessels since it may be pain related. I'm not sure about being pale. I ould put the ptient on 15 lpm non-rebreather (be on the patients' behalf, not the pulse-ox )
