I officially denounce any use of the c-pap we have and condone incubation instead. :eek:

Strong words from a BLS provider. Might I ask why?

Inside the stadium, blows a ice cold wind.

....and that's just coming from the Dortmund football club's fans. ;)

Do you wear steel toe boots? They take all of the heat out of your toes. It doesn't matter how good your hat is, all the heat is running out of the bottom.

We bear boots with steel toe and steel sole on our personal safety equipment and uniforms. But it is compulsory for us in the stadium because it is more dangerous. Because of the hooligans. Hooligans are fans with an extreme potential for violence.

Your football fans are so PASSIONATE. How many do you expect for the game tomorrow?

In each game, more than 50,000 fans
We are always sold out.
And on average we are 80 and 120 volunteer medics on duty and a doctor. We have four first-aid station and its own operational control. Additional two ambulances, an emergency physician with its own rescue vehicle and driver.

The "one size fits all" mask does not fit all. I have seen too many patients deteriorate once switching to cpap to have any faith in them, until we shell money for better ones.

It is now 1:40 in the Morning. I'd better go to bed at 8:00 the alarm clock rings. If not before, the T-mobile is ringing alarm call of the Red Cross on the phone.-_-

Good Night guys. ^_^

What about boots with composite safety toes and such? I use those in the winter up here and don't have any problems with steel sucking the heat out of me foots.

Had an interesting one today. Toned out for seizure. Arrived on scene and patient was postictal and very combative. Took 2 engine crews and us to wrestle the guy onto the board. Only used a board because it was the only way we felt comfortable transporting him, he was that pissed off. Gave him 2 of versed IV to try to get him packaged. By the time we reached the ER he had gotten a total of 10mg and was still fighting. By the time we cleared the hospital he had received our 10mg of versed and 100 mcg of fent and the ER gave a total of 5mg of ativan and 10mg of valium. He was still kicking the ER staff's ***. He was a very angry gentleman. Can't wait to see the nurses tomorrow and find out what was going on.

Now hear this

Top ten reasons why short and curvy is better than tall and skinny when it comes to women.

1. Really? You really need 10 reasons? I'm gonna give you one reason and it's the only reason you need, listen closely. SEX APPEAL. If you need 9 more there ain't no hope for you. Go watch top model and enjoy the rest of your lifetime of Hollywood indoctrination.
