Had a conversation with an EMS buddy today. I needed help finding a topic to write about for a Proposal Essay for a college English class. MEDICAL VS ETHNICAL is the topic we came up with. There is alot of hard decisions that EMS make everyday but its really not their decision to make....its their duty and they have to do their job even when it is hard.Here is a couple topics....
* EMS respond to suicide. Terminal patient just took a bunch of pills...save them or respect their wishes..
* Some guy murders a family, gets shot by police...you want to let him die...but...
* Someone has massive spinal/cranial injuries to the point that if they survive, they will be vegetative or completely crippled...not breathing...save them or end the suffering before it begins...
WHAT CALL HAVE YOU CAME APON THAT YOU WISH YOU COULD HAVE LET THE PERSON DIE?
