I believe Gibson county EMS in Indiana is using it.

The boxes were probably old runs or billing information. As far as searching staff, I'm sure I cant comment without violating a forum rule.

Followed up on the etomidate and vec shortage. Looks like we arent expecting any issues with etomidate. Looking at nimbex and roc to replace vec. The shortage will be over before that ever happens.

That would explain why I can't restock vec. First ive heard of it.

Getting excited. New spinal immobilization protocol (still using backboards thanks to local trauma surgeons, although more freedom there), freedom with pain control with the exception of headaches, and sedation protocols are rolling out.

The local community college where I live created a curriculum for RN to meduc bridge. You essentially just have to take operation and do the required clinical hours. That would take more than 2 weeks though.

This wont end well

thanks for posting. admittedly I was going the v-tach route. good catch

I get held over routinely, usually cause everyone is doing transfers. I expect it from a for profit company. I wish I knew more about the hospital side and why they cant discharge more patients at 10am when we aren't doing anything.

Nice write up. I watch the documentary "tell me and I will forget". Passed it on to coworkers so they could see how easy they have it.

Shorts would be awesome, but then I would have to wear a leg condom.

Got to partake is some range therapy this morning. Broke my latest project gun. Fixed a newish gun. Shot three new onrs for the first time. Then I ruined my good day by going into work and finishing my reports. At least it was OT

Ive never seen anyone do it

I hope it's a BLS day

From what im heaeing PHTLS is moving away from backboards and ITLS isn't even considering it. Just hearsay as I havent taken ITLS

1. It typically ends up being paramedic discretion. Were SUPPOSED to do a refusal for all patient contacts. At car wrecks, if you're not the injured one and you did not request an ambulance, then you are not a patient to me. 2. No can do for me. Second unit gets called. Paramedics write...

Dependent on the dispatch code (AlS assessment or not) the base rate changes. Then there is an ALS 2 charge for 3+ med administrations, defib, intubation, etc. Oxygen charge, bariatric charge, CCT charge, mileage etc etc. I dont know what the prices are, nor do I want to know.

We use the impact 731. No protocol per say, we only use it IFT at whatever settings the RT says. I used it for the first time today (as a medic). It truly is idiot proof. We rarely change anything other than FiO2 and BPM. I change alarm maximums as needed dependant on whether the patient is...

I wore Oakley before EMS and the usstandardissue discount helped to continue that trend.
