Good ways to kill patients

Seen on a documentary and on scene (by a doctor): tell the patient with chest-pain to put himself on the cot/chair rather than carry him.

Sounds like a failed stress test to me. No big deal. :bonk:

Being so concentrated on your ALS that you forget to apply BLS and the patient suffers. A "Paramedic" is an EMT-I with more tools and needs to remember that.

This wouldn't happen if all providers, regardless of certification level, focused on "appropriate patient care" instead of getting caught up in the whole ALS vs BLS crap.

Again with with EMT-I vs EMT-1 thing.
