Got my iPhone 5. And an OtterBox (I miss the old ones, FYI). Now just waiting for it to synchronize.

You have CHUCK NORRIS for a patient?

He actually looked somewhat like Chuck Norris...if Chuck Norris was 420lbs.


My other patient was getting septic and had a BP if 78/42 for 2 hours before the Dr finally gave me an order for a "250ml Bolus of NS @ 100 mL/hr". Why even bother?
 
So I'm re-varnishing/staining the deck and there I am, tears running down my face and I'm choking on fumes. My little sister comes up and asks why I am crying. So I say:

"Well, the smell is so strong that it makes me cry because it burns my eyes."

Her: "Oh. Well, I like the smell. Its a happy smell." And the goes skipping off into the yard.



Well, no wonder people huff that stuff. :ph34r:

So at my new job I was going through the stock room and found "ammonia inhalants"

I was curious so I cracked one like 2 feet from myself and WOW I thought my nose was melting for like 5 seconds.

Guess that's how they wake you up..:

Ahhh yes. I don't know of anyone actually stocking them anymore, but some medics carry their own personal 'stash'

I believe my service carries them. I have never had to use one, but my Medic pulled one out the other day on a patient who was doing a very poor job of faking a seizure. Not sure if it came off the truck or my medic's personal stash though.

All I know is I cracked it at 830 in the morning out of curiosity and I was more awake than 10 cups of coffee would provide.

I also thought my nose spontaneously combusted.

We used to use them on the plane to pop people's ears. Break the capsule drop it in a cup of hot water tell em to close their eyes hold their breath then stick it under their nose and have em smell. It's amazing we never gave anyone a heart attack :) worked on the ears though.
 
Dear medic crews,
I'm sorry we had to alert 2 ALS units. (It was policy)
I'm sorry the other dispatcher misread the call (no it wasn't a stabbing)
Yes I was told they had stepped on a toothpick...
I'm sorry, but I had to do it.
 
I've decided the only sure fire way to get over my ex is to take a job in the most dangerous EMS system I can find. That's right folks I'm moving to Detroit :)

EMTLIFE in the D!
 
I think I met the Yellow Man from HoG today. Thankfully no one got stuck with a needle full of hep C.
