Got off medical leave on Friday. Still sore but back to work today. Lets hope people around here have learned how to drive in the past 2 1/2 weeks:wacko:

I'm watching the Saints Bucs game and got to wondering about the hard hits that football players take, especially when the trainers get brought onto the field. In my experience, I've board and collared a pt for a lesser MOI. I've seen from my own experiences that full spinal precautions are over...

glad your ok. makes the 4th forum member in an accident the past few weeks.

and a nice long chat with daddy about why the car is messed up:P glad to hear your ok though. must be something about this time of year and accidents

I haven't been able to find anything online about it. In the CAD media log they had it listed as a vehicle not an ambulance. I've got a newspaper clipping I need to get scanned. My supervisor has pics of it. I'll get them on Monday.

Eh no serious injuries. Vehicle in the opposite lane crossed into our so my partner swerved to miss it. Hit a ditch, lost control, rolled 3 times. Took out a phone line pole. MY partner handled it well. She avoided hitting another vehicle while we were sliding. Managed to land on our wheels...

Bruised sternum from he seat belt. Parter had glass in her eye and a cut on her hand. Trainee we had in the back is has a nice black eye. Thank God for seat belts. lol

I've got almost a week off work. Busted shoulder from our ambulance losing control and rolling over 3 times.

should we be saying congrats to mr and mrs brown on a future little brown?:unsure:

what about tones?

so apparently cold weather is not good for car batteries

is that it? lol

i get evil looks from the ed staff when we don't call in report. even on routine ift. as far as your partner goes, why not let him run his calls and you run your calls? i know i get pretty irritated when its my patient and she decides to run things her way.
