That's the way you do it!

Money for nothing and your chicks for free,,,,,,,

Thank you Dire Straights.
This has nothing to do with the night really.

48F - Vertigo and vomiting. Anti-emetic helped with her transport and she was admitted for investigation.

52M - Bystanders found him slumped against the steering wheel on the horn. Pt was drowsy on our arrival, a 'fit kit' (sharps container and storage box given to IVDU's ) still in his hand, denies taking any illicit drugs. Track marks on his arms, GCS = 15, says he's going of to the Pub to meet a friend, nothing we can do.

36M - Found by Police face down in the park behind their station (common OD spot, even with it's close proximity to the law). He's up walking, talking and not lying to us about his drug use. He has money on him and a plan to get home, again nothing we can do and off he goes.

20M - Had an incident in the workplace, he was pushed too far and snapped. Transport for evaluation by Mental Health Team. Appeared to be a really nice young fella who's life history was just one sad story after another.

76F - From ambulance bay at hospital to a location 10km away, normal speed a 30 minute drive for a SOB. Lights and sirens about nine minutes if you know the alternate routes to avoid the traffic. 'I've had this pain here for the last three years and I think my BP's high and can you check my sugars?".
Stop,
Breath,
Smile.
'Thank you, Oh no I don't want to go to hospital, now where do I sign?'

18F - King Hit in a Pub, offender caught by security staff who state pt was knocked out. Collared and transport for Neuro Obs.

21M - SOB or Rib pain or anxiety anyway he walked out of hospital after we dropped him off.

??M - Unconscious, call from someone who walked past him and thought someone else (me) should help him (pt). Problem was no-one told the pt this and he had walked off himself before I arrived.

21F - Sitting at the bus stop outside a Kebab Shop!!!!!! IP++++

27M - ? a fractured jaw.

Busy, funny and what a night shift should be in the city.

646 jobs/ 87 days = 7.43 average


See you at the Big One and you be careful out there.
