first call of the day is...

17 year old female with a tib/fib fracture playing soccer. After 10mg of morphine she was still saying she had 9/10 pain but was laying on the gurney comfortably in no apparent distress.
 
Nice way to start.
 
37 F. Unwitnessed fall on the trolley platform due to possible seizure like activity.

I remember my "0" shift I had a different preceptor than who I was supposed to have. We had a car into a structure with I believe 6 patients. Great way to get started. And the preceptor thought it was my first shift and chewed me out good.
 
transfer to a psych facility. lame but we had a couple code 3s so I guess that made up for it
 
Patient removed her pic line. Er trip. No bleeding.
 
No calls in two shifts aside from a monumental amount of crap to be done with the community paramedic program. I'm more tired after these shifts than any others.
 
COPD patient with a coughing Fit and Brochiospams. Who after calming down...Refuses transport
 
911 to an assisted living facility for a male with back pain.

Said his back gave out and doesn't want to go to the hospital. Moved him from the couch to his chair and signed him out AMA.
 
Psych transport to the ER. The patient was completely out of it but he was fun.
 
S/p fall. Hospital discharge.
 
I'm not the person that wishes for calls, that's bad news. But I'm at the slow station and my vacation starts tomorrow and I have not run a call this set. Cabin fever...
 
Pt w/ abd pain. She had an appendectomy 4 days prior and had walked almost a mile that morning to go shopping with her cousin.
