Oh, there you are!

24 April 2010

Long weekend, will it by busy?

Well not on my first night anyway.

55F - Poor thing had a Sub Arachnoid haemorrhage overseas nearly two months ago. Medical retrieval via International flight and we collected, transported around the corner to a private domestic flight to get her and Hubby home for more rehab.

91F - Has the flu (for about a week), not felling chipper and family are waiting to have an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) visit for some additional services or maybe some respite time but getting the ambulance to come and to try and get us to drag her off to an ED at 10pm is not cool.
She did not need a hospital ED and she didn't want to go, so we didn't.

21M - Trying to do a trick on a mates bmx bike, took a cropper, busted a tooth in half. Exposed some of the dentine and needs to see a dentist. After a primary exam without other injury concerns gave some simple analgesia now and some pre-packaged to take home.

34M - IP demanding IV fluids, couldn't just drink water because that takes to long!

18M - Looks like there's a crap batch of GHB out, GCS = 7. Other crews had similar pts also just from the one place.

9/12M - may have put something in his mouth or may have just has a mucus blob rumbling in his throat I can't tell and parents want to know, off we go.



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