What the heck is going on today: started off with an AMA. Then had a critical patient who fell off a roof and landed on his head followed by a patient with severe vaginal bleeding followed by a patient with A-Fib RVR in the 170s (hospital has us admin verapamil). I actually feel like a real medic today

1. If they waterboarded or stuck one of our soldiers outside and let him freeze to death, would you call it torture?

2. I like to set the bar for myself at something higher than, "Well, we aren't as bad as the terrorists... but barely."

Torture=Torture
and there is a reason why an overwhelming majority of people, humans, are revolted by the idea of it...it's evil. I don't condone evil.

...plus it doesn't work.

According to the Senate investigation into the US's most recent torture operation in 2006, we did not gain any valuable or new intelligence through the torture of over 120 people, including the death of 1 prisoner while being tortured. Now ask yourself, while we gained nothing, what was the cost?

Last Thursday, our first call was an afib rvr on CPAP, next call was a stroke, third call was an anaphylaxis, fourth call was a BS headache, fourth call was a fall with shortning + rotation 10mg of MS given PTA by fire surprisingly, especially with this engine. First 3 were all code 3 transports.

At least we started our week with only 700 miles on our unit ;)

I have once before. But on this we were responding to the areas of mission lakes and little morongo in DHS from ramon & varner. So we did have a bit of an extended ETA. The patient was fairly pleasant as well so that probably played into their decision.

Nothing major, it was actually kind of a blink-and-you'll-miss-it deal. ABC 7 commercial for the Spark of Love toy drive, had a collage of still pictures from various local departments and I happened to be in one of them.

So...needless to say I paused the DVR, snapped a pic on my phone an am bragging to all my friends about how I'm a famous tv celeb now (j/k...or am I?? Lol)
 
There's always a little truth behind every just kidding

Oh ok for a moment there I thought you were going to show everyone how you have actual hands-on or even related experience. So you seen it on a report that was released= expert. I don't need to ask myself how 'we' gained nothing...because as far as I can see you have never had any involvement in anything remotely related to what's going on other than what you read in the news.
