Hoax call, female with ?fractured leg. This address had four fire truck attendances last week too.
53F - Institutionalised Downes Syndrome Pt who likes to ride the trains and then call an ambulance for a trip to hospital rather than the group home.
I'm required by SOPs to take her if she requests but triage bundled her straight into a Taxi with an ear full and sent her packing.
40F - Wanted her crisis team at two AM. Not going to happen Lov, you'll get me and the Police.
20M - IP who didn't understand that if you make drunken threats to me I will still call the Police and if you keep getting mouthier then rather than at best a ride to hospital and a blanket, sandwich, coffee and somewhere safe you end up in the back of a cage truck and then the cold concrete thrill of a lockup cell.
Back up the ICPs with an arrest but the pt had been down too long so it got called and we stuck around to help reset their car while they did the paperwork.
Be careful out there and I'll see you at the Big One.
