Bummer man

Well? Any luck?

Well in my group they said they had more spots than applicants and that we may not all be able to interview on the same day, unless we were from way out of town and said they had someone fly from NM so they made an exception. Anyone you know? lol. They said we would hear back on Tuesday (Mon...

I work in San Jac actually.

I absolutely agree. I could not get an IV going on her so fluid was out of the question, she was morbidly obese. I still would not have give any magnesium, Thiamine is pretty benign so it wasn't really a big deal, where mag may have become a big deal. But yes, I understand your reasoning...

Gotcha, mines at like 8:30 so thats why mines the same day I bet

Hmm, from what I gathered, the oral is in the morning with the written and skills test, then physical after that. that not sound right?

Probably most likely to use on a homeless person, excuse me, 'urban outdoorsman'. Or a drunk college student to ruin their drunken-ness.

I did nearly all my EMT-P rides there and their protocols are very progressive. They code protocol is strange to say the least it irritated me one night when I was scolded because I didn't know their weird-*** protocols, then I reminded them I don't work there. That being said, I put aside my...

My sup wasn't real excited about it. I just got done talking to my Lieutenant and all is good. I had to write up an incident report on another call that, after being read, led to a series of incident reports. So after that I talked to him and said I had a lapse in judgement on a call and didnt...

Ehhh they are pretty lax around here usually, but I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for the input.

No no, I don't know our Online Med control. I know who the Medical Director is. As for OMC, from what I gather from the Protocol book, its whatever doc picks up the phone at CSMC. Sounds strange, are other places like that?

Well I'm out in San Jacinto County, and to be honest our MC is.... I don't know. I think College Station Medical Center to be honest. I hate CSMC and while I was working in CS I would take EVERYONE to SJ, well all stable pts anyway. They are so rude at CSMC.

Ok, got my report and here is my Narrative: M10 dispatched to XXXX Hwy 156 for a fallen party who is out of reach of oxygen tubing. M10 arrived to find a 78 Y/O Female on floor leaning on recliner, unconscious and varying from barely responsive to painful stimuli to unresponsive. Pt is...

Well B1 deficiency certainly seems possible with 0 oral intake in a week, with poor diet for an exteded time prior to that. Her change in mentation began after approx 15-20 minutes. I am in a rural area, with no hospital within 35 miles of pt's location. I should have consulted Medical Control...
