Dustdevil Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 The reason people get in trouble is they are selective. If you follow same method you are covered. If you strip the fat ugly old guy for same type of accident you are not in trouble for stripping the 16 year old cheerleader. Incredibly wise and relevant statement! This is SO true in everything we do. This is something that is taught in the police academy (regarding searches, restraints, etc...) that should also be in every EMS textbook. It will keep you out of trouble both legally and medically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBEMT Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 One point of slight confusion- if she's KEDed, how effective is our strip-and-peek going to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strip her and check her chest and back then KED. Easy. See you at the ER. BYE BYE for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
