What part of this are you having difficulty comprehending? HOSPICE PTS. DIE! They can do so at any time, not a damn thing you can do about it. If they do, you simply follow your SOP's for a deceased pt. It's not your decision, you cannot decide how you will and won't transport, and you certainly have no right to question someone who knows a whole heck of a lot more about this pt. than you do.

Sometimes we need to put our personal insecurities aside and see things for what they really are. As previously pointed out, this industry is not about you. You are a servant to the patient. Looking at it in any other fashion is self serving and really inapporpriate.

Honestly, either get over it or revisit yourself and your future in EMS.....................

Well put! I have to say I agree. If you have (and I quote) "very very very very personal issues with your legs being touched"
Then perhaps being an EMT on an ambulance or transport rig is not for you. There are certainly other jobs available to EMT's outside ambulance or transport. Just my little ole opinion though not saying that you're a bad EMT or did anything wrong.
