    bleeding from cheek wound

    Are there not other ways you can bandage this wound? Remember, EMS requires a touch of creativity at times. How big is this wound? Can you place a 4X4 over it and secure with tape? How long is tx time? Would having the patient hold a 4X4 there do any harm? Etc. Etc. Just a thought...

    Advice?

    Well, as far as on-the-job training you have to do, that is generally covered in your clinicals.

    Are supervisors from private companies allowed to 800 you?

    This is a situation where you need to contact your state EMS office for clarification. I know that in TN, the only people that are going to be checking my truck are the Regional EMS consultant, or my supervisor. As far as NY goes, I have no clue....
