A photo of yesterday's MVA from someone who was there, thank you


Like I said a very lucky girl.

Tonight,

32M - ? Sprained ankle playing indoor soccer. The pain increased on splinting and also moved further up the leg so when we checked back later the x-ray had confirmed a Fibula fracture instead.

01F - Basically checking out for a freaked out Mum post a very slow MVA. The pt was restrained in an approved child seat the damage was minimal but it was mum's first accident and when the pt saw mum upset it flowed onto her. Once everyone was calm there were no problems.

75M - From rehab to ED transfer and it's bed blocked.We waited five and half hours with him and babysitting various other crews pts (5 of them) and got relieved around 3am.

50M - Opiate OD, once we'd saved his life he declined transport for further observation.

So while we didn't do much straight out work it was a long night.


See you at the big One.
