Hmm, it'd probably be county commissioner, but highway patrol has stated that they've mentioned it on several occasions

Haha no, no question, just something they should investigate, no reflectors, or arrow signs, just a straight shot on either end. I saw the other day where it looked like someone plowed it again but they must've drove off as we never responded.

just got back home from working a wreck for my volunteer dept, this would mark the 3rd single vehicle rollover in the same curve. This patient was the worst of all 3. Thrown to rear of car no seatbelt, poor girl. We had her medivac'd out to Norfolk. Hopefully NCDOT will take note of this...

4 heroin ODs since January first just in our volunteer fire district, something like 11 in the tri county area....

I was always told that you should never with hold oxygen for fear of depressing hypoxia drive unless you are doing a distance transport, because your interaction with the patient will not be long enough to depress hypoxia drive

Ok, I've just never heard it used, but I want to know any and all mnemonics as we run mutual aid with 2 different counties!

I'm assuming csm is comparable to pulse motor sensory? That's the term we were taught

I screen shot that. Very helpful way to look at it. And then if abcs are managed then you move on to your patient assessment. Thank you kindly

Agreed, I think I'm just overthinking these questions way too much...

Fair enough!

, I just know it said not breathing at times, I figured they meant irregular respirations.

Am I way off? One of the optional answers was bag them and I've torn the Internet apart with no definite answer. By your emoji, not choosing that must've been the right choice.

not sure if this is possible, or even advised, but patient in status epilepticus, while waiting for als, do you just protect airway, even if patient is not breathing at times, or can you bvm this patient with supplemental 02? I would think that may be difficult

okay, that is actually the first time I have heard of that, I will look into it. This is a field teeming with mnemonics!!!

Dang. I'm really gonna have to look over my flash cards again, thanks!!!
