Something I was pondering...
So Mr. Brown is all about getting the bright orange jumpsuit so he can become a helicopter doctor. But I am thinking to myself, most helicopters I am familiar with don't have doctors, they have a nurse and a paramedic.
I know some CCT units have a doctor on board, but many are going to nurse/emt/emt, or nurse/paramedic/emt, or nurse/CC EMT, or something like that.
For interfacility transfer, we do EMT/EMT, but some do EMT/Medic, or Medic/medic.
it seems that there is no real standard, and if people really wanted a doctor on the helo, or a nurse on every transport or any other highly educated person on an interfacility, we would see people dying due to the uneducated and unskilled providers, which I challenge anyone to show me published documentation showing that be the case.
