And just for clarification and to avoid a focus on religion as opposed to the patient hanging and bleeding. THIS SCENARIO IS LARGELY BASED ON A CENTURY OF THE ROMAN PRACTICE OF CRUCIFICTION WERE PROBABLY A MILLION PEOPLE MET THIER FATES. And yes the shins were routinly broken as a matter...

no spear for the sake of argument. the spear was fatal so it can't be included

OK, history channel brings up a good question. U walk into a scene with a thin male suspended from two crossed wooden planks. Subject is bleeding semi-consious 3 to 4 large spikes through each wrist and feet. Dirty, posteriour thorasic has full thickness LAC from neck to buttocks...

BTW make no mistake my "guys" are 100% psych patients and routinely get violent.

No offense taken. But I gotta stand by it. A 260 lb man that is fine one minute and has your hand in his mouth the next can happen in a living room or as you make the mistake of reaching across the PT to get a gause pack out of the bin. The CPI training I recived had one page for...

Again this will vary by state, so dig deep. CPI in one state may be something different in another state. In one house I work in is a 19 y/o autistic, a 23 y/o Bi-polar manic, and a 20 y/o severe MR. All with some level of independance and all really good guys. But in no way are they children...

My state (NM) offers a "CPI" training class on proper and safer ways to handle that. The problem is its such an obscure optional state training class that unless I worked here (Living support for the developmentally challenged) I NEVER would have known. Wonder if I could get CEU's for...

that's all the info I got

I can't believe I missed that one. that's my second fav SNL skit. Mr. Peepers is the first. I mean really I'm just tryin to do the best cow bell I can do!

Not enough, that's what I said. That all the "S" I could gather. 23yo male, no drugs, NKA/NKDA, Lorazapam, Meal @ 30min ago, "E" unknown. Aggressive too.

PT has AMS 80 Central and radial pulses diminished pedal pulses. non-reactive left pupil that is moving erratically and independently of the right one. Any guess'?

anything in the toilet?

And oh yeah, I thought when I first started doing Autopsies (Now an EMT) That the kid cases where gonna be hard. I was wrong. It was the prostitutes. This is only my opinion but after doing 1 Ped case for every 10 prostitutes, I realized that it was these lost little girls that hit me the...

I have noticed that I'm fine as long as its not my kid. I clipped my sons finger nail to close one time and a glucometer size drop of blood came out and I cried like a punk till my wife came home. But somebody else's kid I'm fine. I have two cases from work I think about from time to time, but...

One universal thread in life as well as all religions is "What goes around comes around". Resisting the urge to exact judgment when its not our place to do so can feel like carrying a ton of bricks. I routinely came into contact with child sex offenders at a previous job. What kept me in...

Professionalism

ok, that kinda stuff I've known about for the better part of the last decade. Re-hashing those prc's was not the intent of my original post. An idea outside of what you could just download and go was the idea. Not to mention I already combed ALL the palm sites months ago for emt stuff...

Wow, I gotta say I'm impressed with the EMS community and mobile tech. I didn't search cause after a 8 or so years in health care I've been all but ostracized for using something with electricity in it. The labs etc that i've worked at have been nearly all paper based. and when I pull out my...

Any other palm os handheld users out there in BLS? I'm looking for creative ways to use the heck out of this thing to help me learn. So far I've used the basics word, excel etc. What was most helpful so far was my to do list. I set a to do's with a dose or some other info i need and...
