Oh, there you are!

18 May 2009

First Night.

1) Female syncope, Confirmed LOC, <1yrs diagnosis of leaking tricuspid valve.
2) Psych transport back to facility they had absconded from, well out of our area.
3) Male & Female with glass cuts, caution don't have a lap dance on glass coffee tables.
4) Female ? intoxicated ignoring B/f and not opening door. Locksmith on scene opening door as pts condition was at that stage unknown. I had a stern talk to her.
5) Male seen in backyard by neighbours not moving, poly-pharmacy OD.
6) Intoxicated female with cut on nose, from falling over.
7) Male who waited too long to call with right weakness, confirmed CVA, outside local protocol for thrombosis.
8) Young drunk fella who needed someone to look after him. He was a very nice person so it was our pleasure too.
9) Middle aged male with lower back pain and very drunk.
10) Transport two dialysis pts to treatment.

While making up the bed we were approached by a person wondering if we knew the crew that did a particular job and were pleased to say that it was us.

This family member was able to give us a detailed report about our pts current status and injuries as well as their remarkable recovery from extremely traumatic injuries.

We were very touched by the whole job and intend to visit the pt next week to give our support and best wishes.

Be careful out there and I'll see you at the Big One.
