Does anyone have experience with being called for a likely heatstroke patient at an athletic event, but having the trainers refuse to have the patient transported until they have cooled the patient?
There are some position statements from the athletic trainers that seem to support this approach, but I haven't heard first-hand of any conflicts between EMS and trainers.
(See page 9 of this position statement from the NATA to read their reasoning)
