first call of the day is...

Traffic collision with rescue for a 2 vehicle TC with an overturned SUV...transported 1 patient BLS for a 1/2 inch laceration to the foot
 
Psych discharge
 
Drunk female patient who called 911 saying she was having chest pain. Get on scene and find her in her apartment completely naked and drunk.

Get her dressed up and she doesn't have any complaint aside from being wasted to the point she can't walk. Ended up having to restrain her after she tried to get off the gurney and take her cloths off multiple times.
 
29/F. Fall from bicycle during triathlon. Face impacted metal scaffolding that was along the triathlon route. Substantial laceration to the chin, dislodged right molar, copious amounts of blood both externally and in her mouth. No LOC, full recall of events, denies head/neck/back. Borderline hypertensive, tachycardic. Pale/Cool/Diaphoretic.

Due to MOI and the impact area however, we C-Spined her and called in an ALS transport unit from the city.
 
I don't even remember...
 
Psych, disregarded by PD as I lifted my fist to knock on the front door
 
Lac to the back of my pts L hand that required 4 sutures to close.
I always get a kick out of the "big tough guys" that are all tatted up turn into 8 yo girls at the sight of a needle.
 
ER trip, AMS with really bad congestion and cough.​
 
Yesterday was a 22 year old with a sore throat for 3 days that couldn't wait till morning to see his doc. Only lived 0.6 miles from the ER.
 
Wound care appointment.
 
I worked the overnight for some OT. Didn't turn a wheel. On my way home I came upon on T-bone rollover accident at the edge of or district. Got out and called 911 and then went over to the only patient who was pretty much fine, just freaked out. During my cursory assessment a woman ran over and just about pushed me out of the way exclaiming she was a nurse and began to refer to everyone as sweetie as she instructed everyone (including bystanders) to lay down and not move.

I was still wearing my night uniform (agency t-shirt and ID badge). Thanks sweetie, I got it from here.
 
Severe weakness due to diarrhea. ER trip
