Nice Day, should be a good night!

44F - Haematemisis, Transported.

90M - Assist to bed at a nursing home, single staff member on duty.

27M - IP, prat (clinical assessment), his bum was numb after being pushed over and then lying on the concrete footpath for twenty minutes. Full spinal precautions, collar, board, straps and sand bags. Made a miraculous recovery and walked himself out of hospital twenty minutes later.

28F - IP, Hen's night, legless literally, B/f called and will collect from triage at hospital.

?20M - Friends are walking assist this very drunk gent home and put him down to have a break and someone walking past called for us???? They were good friends looking after a mate well done and off they went with him.

87F - Week long cough and decreased mobility. It now hurts to breath and cough. Come with me 'My Ol' Darlin' Saturdays nights not the best time to be going to a metropolitan hospital but you need to be there, sorry.

77F - Now this was cardiac chest pain, no ECG changes or warnings but needed assessment.

22M - ?Dislocated TMJ or similar with also an injury to the trachea post assault.

48M - Small head lac but it needed glue or stitches.

20M - After watching his friends try for twenty minutes to get him into a car to get him home after a night clubbing and having to much GHB. We got a job created to allow us to take him to hospital an as we expertly grabbed him to lift onto the stretcher up he pops and looks at us all and walked to the car and got in all without assistance. Maybe he was attention seeking and realised how close he was to ending up in hospital instead if he continued to be a wally.

Heard a cardiac arrest go down and didn't hear any further scene reports for like ten minutes so we cruised by to have a look and see if we could help. Great your here can you get another Viva? More hands were needed and they hadn't called for them yet as they were all busy working on the pt in a very small room with distressed family outside.
The upshot is they really needed our help and it was lucky that we stopped by.
It was a shocking scene and even worse extrication with us stopping on each of the five stairwell landings to do more CPR and defibrillate.
He got the best Pre-Hospital Cardiac care available and with the first intervention from our station of the new randomised trial I-GEL LMA that worked like a dream.
He is 44, with a wife and kids and no cardiac history and had spontaneous return of respiration and circulation by the time he was in the hospital resus bay.
Shit job done bloody well.

758 jobs/103 shifts = 7.36 average.

See you at the big One.
