FYI Brown... your country is about the size of most US states. 25 US states (50%) also have a greater population than your entire country.
And yet that has no bearing on anything whatsoever, Brown notices the US always uses the line of "oh but we are so big" as an excuse. Sure, 50 autonomous states who are guaranteed the right to self govern when it comes to matters outside Federal jurisdiction and the Constitution makes things more complex ... but lots of other sectors have done it including the Fire Service (NFPA) and nursing. Ambulance Service New South Wales is one of the largest geographic areas of the world for Ambulance cover and it has consistent clinical guidelines, as does British Columbia so sorry mate, being big ain't a good reason.
Uh Oh... Uh...Brown? I think he just called your country small...
Eh, Brown can live with it
all of a sudden????? he has been that way since he first popped up on emtlife, what makes you think this is a sudden change?
Wrong .... Brown is one of the most humble people you could ever meet, just ask Mrs Brown
My latin is not very good but I'm going to take a stab at this:
Medicinae Baccalaureus, Churguriuae Baccalaureus?
.
Good job mate, and its five years.
Idk why all of a sudden you think you are better than all of us.
We are not better than you, but does it not make logical sense that any jurisdiction who can offer one standard of patient care has an advantage over another who cannot?
Some states like Pennsylvania and Massachusetts have state-wide standing orders, some places like Los Angeles, Miami-Dade and Lee (FL) have County wide standing orders, others like Dallas-Ft Worth (BioTel) and Houston have system wide standing orders unique to that particular area independant of City or County boundaries (ironically Dallas Fire and Houston Fire are two of the absolute worst examples of Paramedic education in the world) while there are hundreds of other services who have standing orders unique to that particular service independent of what anybody else is doing.
A Paramedic in Los Angeles is different than a Paramedic in Reno who is different from a Paramedic in Dallas, who is different from a Paramedic in New York City who is different from a Paramedic in Hot Springs, Arkansas; some are tied to medical control to take a piss and others are not.
Hmm .... could this perhaps be less effective and efficient than a system say like oh Brown doesn't know ... the UK, Australia, various provinces in Canada and down here where we have one set of standing orders?
