What as a Paramedic were you(anyone) unable to provide to your patient's, especially those that died??? What additional skills/knowledge do you think needs to be added to a Paramedics Scope of Practice?
I asked this question in a previous post but didn't get an answer.... But I feel its a good question, So I ask it again. Has anyone ever had a patient expire because you as a healthcare provider couldn't perform a specific procedure or just didn't have the knowledge base for something that could have saved a patient's life??? Example: Field Thoracotomy, Additional Drugs, etc.
