If you're just looking to confirm that she was okay, check with the doctor/nurse that discharged her. That said, if you're looking for beyond just that, it might be a sign you're already in murky waters.

Go to next shift. Ask patient's nurse/doctor/tech/whoever else might know, "Hey, what ever happened to _____?"

Just in case you think CLs do nothing all day but sit around and drink beer, well you're wrong. We don't do it all day. Usually.
We eat really healthy while we're doing it to
Wait!
Which one are you?

If her biggest issues was that she was drunk and needed baby sitting she is probably at home with a hangover.

Exactly how I'm feeling right now. This is botheirng the crap out of me. I had a pt die while I was working on her, two more with serious injuries, and I'm sitting here freaking out over a god damn girl that made me lose my head. It was ridiculously obvious to everyone around me too. They all saw it and I just didn't care.
:censored::censored::censored::censored: me, I need to go drink. I'll be on later.
Fixed! Do this instead!
Just as good a way to relieve stress, without all that nasty liver abuse. :wacko:
Everyones asleep or I'd go out running a 5k to try and blow some heat. *
Besides, the last thing I'd want is to end up in the same hospital, in the bed next to her, for the same thing. That'd just be a hilariously bad example. :rofl:
* - Getting out of the house without waking people is hard. Getting tempermentally drunk is easy.

Forget worrying about waking people..... I'd just go running. I got a friend who goes running every time he is mad. (If he can.) Called me up one day and was like "Hey, I just ran 22 miles." Must have been pretty dang mad!
I don't mean to sound judgmental although I'm sure I do anyway... But I feel its a waste of time to worry/ think/ flirt with someone you are supposed to be helping, and the reason she was in the hospital probably means she has some issues.

You should have seen Jon score phone numbers off usairways stewardess last night. It was like watching a shark among guppies. He looks all innocent and then wham next thing you know he's got three flight attendants hanging on his every word and asking to see his stethoscope.

Civvy radio traffic at a go kart tournament is killing me
Can't say I've ever gone that far. I've been upwards of 15 in one run, I ran to the beach from where I lived! Greatest idea I had, besides not being able to walk for a day or so.
You don't sound judgemental at all, don't worry. But with all due respect, I've come close to ending up in the hospital for etOH poisoning, and I know quite a few who have aswell. There are times I should have gone, where I've passed out after throwing up, and woken up with my head in the toilet, inches from the water (no exaggeration there. One of the scariest things in my life), and other crap. It comes down to who you're with, she was out partying and had too much (from what I hear, 3 bacardi shots, 2 gin shots, 3 beers, all in around an hour and a half), and her friend called for her.
And I've been beating the crap out of myself for this, and I don't know why. It's EMS' job to help people, psycological first aid is one of the top tools in our arensal. I deal with stuff every week, traumas, FDGB old ladies, and nasty stuff, and feel nothing for those people, for the most part. I might feel a bit bad, but I don't have an emotional connection to them. I never have with a patient who I didn't know prior to injury/intox.
Anyway, I'm knocking the train off its rails again, so in better news I got a nickname from some old ladies at the hospital, they called me angel

Speaking about old ladies I had a pt with Alzheimers and when I was checking her lung sounds she forgets where she is and who I am and notices that my stethoscope is placed on top her chest and bam I almost get slapped lol

Something that looks nasty at about 120 (300-150-100 "calculation") B/M, looks regular, is wide, and is paced.

It looks kind of like a dual chamber pacemaker. Either that, or the Phillips monitor adds in a lot of extra lines.
