    Alberta Health Services....lets hear it!

    Vital signs (pulse + respirations)

    Make it simple. Count pulse for 15 seconds, double it, then double it again. Do the same for resps and write it on your glove.

    Wanna see something scary?

    I work for a private ambulance company and we do alot of movie shoots. It's funny how they tell you what to do. They want to make it look super critical! We had to run into an accident scene when everything was still on fire.....!
