    LA County DHS Ambulance

    @noblepacino if you have to stay in LA you could consider Liberty in Kern county, unrelated to the Liberty IFT in LA. The schedule allows you to easily commute from LA, and the scheduled overtime makes the EMT pay more liveable than what you'll find in LA.

    No cardiac hx, pain started 30min ago while at rest. BP 60/20, RR 24 and shallow, GCS 15, a fib between 70 and 110. I called a stemi alert and the cardiologist disagreed. ER doc convinced him to send the pt to Cath where it was discovered he had a complete LAD occlusion and coded.
