Oh, there you are!

21 June 2011

Day two of the current block.

96M - Just diagnosed with gall stones, huge gall stone and now severe abdo pain. Maybe they're perforated the gall bladder?

40F - Had a mental meltdown at work and did something out of character even for a high strung person and we came and cleaned it up and took her away to talk to someone.

80M - Possible GI bleed but being from an NESB the story wasn't quite right.

86M - From Big hospital to a Rehab facility. Turns out he was and old ambo back in his twenties. He said that they did have automobiles not horse and carts but the gear they used really nothing more than a bag of bandages, some splints and a canvas stretcher without wheels that they just carried you on. A fair dink'um gent.

22M - Lesson 1, don't piss off and become aggressive with Police carrying Capsicum spray.
Lesson 2, Don't continue you aggression towards the paramedics with the baby shampoo to wash your eyes.

??F - Unknown problem, UTL.

79F - SOB, Pale like a bed sheet with recurrent nose bleeds. Hb came back at 73!

40M - ? Cardiac arrest at an hour past knock off (them's the breaks and I was signing in drugs and my junior partner came and got me to accept the job even though it was the night she was going out with friends to have birthday drinks as we would be working on the day, great work ethic) 30 seconds out we got called off Code 4 Dead.

On the way back we were the only resource available so we took another just to help out,

26F - 13 weeks of 40 gestation, abdo pain and a very little bleeding.

15 and 1/2 hours after the shift started we got knocked off.

See you at the big One.
