You haven't seen the dispatchers at a private then.

Bear in mind some of us who work at privates haven't either.
I'm not entirely unconvinced they haven't outsourced the whole operation to India. It would explain their geographic knowledge and clinical acumen.
Your ambulance has and 888 number or area code on it other than 911!
I make a point to stop by dispatch after every shift just to ensure that what you said hasn't occurred. Then I try and say something nice to them in an attempt to display goodwill before quickly fleeing.
We have to go turn in paper AMAs and ECG sheets at EOS in the dispatch center so I see ours all the time. We have 1 dispatcher who is smokin' hott, too bad she's married
You can technically avoid having to turn the papers in if you bluetooth your ECGs from the monitor into your ePCR and do all the AMA/RMA signatures on the laptop but it ends up being easier to use the paper. Plus I'm not handing most of the urban outdoorsmen a 5000 dollar toughbook when they are covered in vomit and urine.

Once they sign the toughbook, I can hose it off, douse it with alcohol, and remove any cooties. with the pen, they give me back my pen that I have to touch (unless you have burner pens, which get costly when yo do 12-20 jobs in a 12 hr shift), or the paper, which has to stay in the ambulance until I turn it in when it's covered with various body fluids.

If you're instructed to drive past a car accident with people waving you down to continue enroute to your dialysis call, without a patient mind you.
don't you remember the TV commercials? the engineer at the construction site spilled his coffee on the keyboard, he shook it off and kept working.I'd love to see someone hose off a toughbook. I will gladly laugh when it shorts out. We have the highend tough books. They are water-resistant not water-proof.
I have a patient mechanical pencil without the lead hanging on the net to sign!oddly enough, I will hand the urban outdoorsmen my toughbook before I give them my pen and clip board with paper charts any day.
