And I would argue IFT medics and emts are more qualified to deal with nursing home patients emergencies anyway as they are more familiar and comfortable with the chronic disease processes and equipment you will run into at the nursing homes. Just like 911 medics are more qualified for trauma (i will freely and unabashadly admit I suck at trauma beyond stuff like hip fractures because we don't get those calls)
I disagree, the inner workings of a nursing home are not complex enough for us to not be as familiar because we do not go there10 times a day like an IFT. We do however run 911 calls to nursing homes all the time, 911 units get more Medical than they do Trauma. Trauma is a boring easy call, how can you be bad at a Trauma call? Medical is complex, but Medical is what we mostly get and there is no way an IFT service is more qaulified for patients with multiple Chronic issues than a 911 service is. Hearing that makes me think you may not have much experience in 911, not saying that to be rude.
