Well what does the patient think about all this?????
I bet you a large percentage of them wouldn't have a clue what the difference between a EMT-B, I or P is! Unless we were to say to them, we need a person with a higher skill level to give them pain relief, etc,etc.
They are just pleased to see you pull up, in the hope that you can help them!
If the call is one that a BLS can't control, they call for back up or load and head for the back up!
It's a waste of resources, time and money sending a ALS to a ETOH that has fallen over and needs a help up, or little Johnny with a cut finger, when they should be heading towards say, a Cardiac Arrest in the opposite direction!
