Hopefully it doesn't happen.
I tell you what, if I get an arrest, I am finding a corner and organizing that **** from a distance. I am not in the mood for physical work tomorrow. Really hoping they don't split me so I can have a medic partner do important things for me.

My last 2 shifts have had an opiate related DOA. This is a pretty rural area too. We get a fair amount of ODs, but it seems like some particularly nasty stuff is making the rounds.

No idea. I haven't seen any tox results nor have I heard from anyone reliable that it's Carfentanil, although we hdid recently get the "wear a lot of PPE" lecture. :/ Just more and more people doing more and more opiates. And it's killing them. Sad. This guy was young.

They have been doing tests on one of our race tracks for a new BMW electric car. They are super nice and very expensive.
Murdered my legs and am hobbling around like an old person and I have already had to carry someone with fire to the stretcher. At least today is double medic.
Checked the same dudes pressure 3 times (4with FD) and went back to ask the daughter something and the doc asked what it was for me on the way. 100-110 each time boss. Looked and it was 58. Dafuq.

I can't imagine just waiting. We have 90 miles to go to get to the hospital, but we rarely, if ever, have to wait to turn a pt over and go back.

Lol, that was pretty good. Incidentally, this is completely my wife and I, except I'd be the one behind the camera.
She's been a nurse for 12 years, yet certain smells get this exact same reaction out of her. I showed her the video, she couldn't stop laughing.
