That, ladies and gentleman, that's funny.

Are y'all seeing an increase in hospital cost-cutting to the point of insanity? We've got one facility that wants us to roll the patient off the draw sheet after we move them to our cot.

We are supposed to be Terminated if we take ANY linens from a certain hospital. We are supposed to use our own "mega mover" It's great fun and patients who can hardly breathe deserve a workout right?

Just had a guy drive up to us as we are posting and asks if we know where he could "find a date". "Well sir there is normally a woman looking for dates 2 blocks up standing on the corner."

What the heck kind of IFTs are you doing?!

I used backboards several times, but never a KED or traction doing transfers...

Mea culpa

The oversized nun was over the top. Guess I was lighting the candle with a blowtorch, eh? Sorry for adding to the hoohah.

I want to say one of our trucks had a mid-shaft femur a couple of weeks back from a SNF...

We witnessed an accident and stayed to help because they had multiple patients and one was a trauma alert. Did not transport. We had student hold X-spine and broke out the KED and blackboard. It was aweeeesome.

Car accidents suck! Soooo much paperwork for nothing 95% of the time. That's pretty sweet though, I've never used a KED in the field. Was it a trauma alert by injury or physiology?

 

[DesertMedic66]

Dispatch: "Respond code 3 for a human bite".
Unit: "copy. Can you repeat the nature of the call?"
dispatch: "the patient is tied to a bed and someone else bit the patient"
Unit: "kinky. Copy, show us in route"

Fancy! Only used the KED on adults a few times but use it all the time on small children and toddlers. It's like a little papoose, suckers go right to sleep.

 

[NomadicMedic]

Love the KED. Especialy when the fire department is being pissy and asking when they can clear. Here's a hint... If you ask me if you can leave the scene when I'm still in the car assessing a patient, you can assume you're going to be KEDing a patient.
