Love getting dispatched for "Pneumonia" (didn't know that was a chief complaint) to find that the C/C is Dizziness secondary to Hypotension, tertiary to bloody stools.
That sounds like a "skilled" nursing facility if there ever was one...
So after a shift off, I'm headed back to work. Anyone want to go for me?

On a holdover. Maybe now the chief can't avoid me since he doesn't know I'm being held over

Listening to a Dubstep remix of one of my favorite Pumpkins songs.

I got called for a "SOB" last shift and the nurses stated the sats were originally 84%. Patient was laying flat in the bed and I saw that the patient had a history of CHF... I sat her up and sats jumped to 98%.
Imagine that...

It actually came out of a family clinic, I'm fairly certain that it was the call-taker that screwed up, because the Nurse and Doc at the clinic had all their ducks in a row.
Wait, wait, it's not normal for your primary rigs to be dead?

Because it's H-town?
Our spare trucks tend to "disappear" into the system for weeks at a time...and then come back with nasty notes about what they're missing. Even though we haven't checked the truck in three weeks :angry:
Found out the reason it was dead is the plug for the spare is a 10A plug, even though all of our trucks have 20a connections

Can an aneurysm really cause a person to think they're hearing people sing?
And.
They makes entire uniforms that can help with electrostatic discharge?

A large tumor in the right area of the temporal lobe could possibly contribute to auditory hallucinations, but not to the extent you see... It would be more like a buzzing or a whistle, something small like that, not a full broadway show, it was just a mechanism they used to make a musical episode.
? You mean like Flight suits?

It's starting to become palmetto bug season again, I found one and killed it but now it's stuck to the wall. Oh dear, oh dear.
I suppose, wouldn't know. You mentioned ESD uniforms. Only ESD I know is something that's considered a threat to electronics.
