Trauma

[AnthonyTheEmt]

Dont know if anyone has posted anything about this joke of a show. Has anyone else watched this? I am an EMT in Alameda County in California, and paramedic student. I found myself this crap just to rip it on how inaccurate it is. For example, last night, the EMT is bagging a guy while he is sitting in a chair, at a rate of AT LEAST 45-50 times a minute!? Do they even do research when they write this show? The president of the NREMT has written a formal complaint to NBC to either fix the show to make it more accurate and not paint such a horrible light on us who do these jobs for real. I just hope this crap gets canned.

I wonder if the CHP complained when CHiPS was on.

WHAT?! CHIPS wasn't accurate? Oh come on. Next you'll tell me L.A. law was nonsense.

I don't know about "L.A. Law", but "Boston Legal" sure is/was. Captain Kirk sure has become great at playing the overbearing, egotistical buffoon, though!

T.J hooker was a documentary.

Relax for a minute. This show is purely for entertainment. Think of it an an escape from the reality of what we do. Sit back, get some snacks, and enjoy. There is too much stress in our lives to be upset about wether or not a TV show is accurate or not. Do you think Jedis are sitting around upset that Star Wars isn't accurate enough? JK. I love this show and hope it stays on the air for a while. Take it easy..

Been cancelled for almost 2 weeks... but don't hold it agains SEBeast... it has only been poseted in all the trauma threads, because like those OPs, SEBeast didn't bother to read other peoples posts, just post his own opinion of the show over and over again... "so relax"...

Absolutely! You'll be doing field abdominal aortic surgeries in no time!

My fav character on the show is actually Rabbit.

But really, if they are gonna try again at an EMS show, make it more realistic.
Almost gives you guys a bad name the way treat some of their patients on that show.

The sad thing is, the mass population would not know the difference. <_<

The show is for entertainment only, and at least it give the general public more hope that we do more then just drive a taxi around town!

It also has confirmed or reinforced the fears many in San Francisco had about getting a helipad at their hospitals especially their trauma center SFGH or at UCSF.
