A few months back when I was still a "trainee" my partners and I were paged for a elderly female who had fainted in a local 24hr grocery store. Law enforcement of course was on scene due to the fact it was about midnight and they were bored..... Anyways we get there and the pt is laying on the floor "unconcious" so we proceeded to do what we do... Putting her on a heart monitor... As we do a she slightly states "oh don't touch me there" we have officers standing over us so its not like we don't have witnesses to what we are doing... Then she she becomes unresponsive again.. Load her in the rig another partner decides to put an IV in her not a peep outta her until he flushes the line with saline she asks what are u putting in me? I say oh a lil something to help u... (Which isn't a lie lol) and again becomes "unresponsive". Little do any of the 3 of us know she was a con artist and will sue u for anything she can. She is the pt that u load and go and u sit where ur partner can see u in the rearview mirror at all times you do no vitals on her you do not touch her. We didn't know this due to the fact she wasn't at home and we know her address not her name.... all we could say was it was a good thing that I was there so that there were two of in the back of the rig that night!
