Cause your girlfriend wears the pants in the relationship. I mean its pretty obvious, she has a 45 vs your 9mm.

I ran a really weird call last night for a combo OD/CVA. Dude is 60 years old and still running around shooting up heroin...

I honestly could not separate whether the patient was too uncooperative to follow my stroke assessment commands or if he was actually presenting with a positive stroke scale. I ended up calling in a stroke alert after giving the patient a couple doses of Narcan. Just bizarre.

Sup seemed to take my email well initially. That is, until she ripped into me later that evening for two small unrelated things. Figured out that that conversation wasn't going well when her third sentence in was, "Don't smart off to me!"

Holy cow.
That is when you in more descriptive words to tell her to go have relations with herself and walk out the door.

Follow up, could be an interesting read later.

The other day I was the first (probably ever) person to ever do a case presentation at work along with EBP suggestions for initial treatment and care of patients with DKA and HNS. This all stemmed from a DKA case I was involved with (part of the team) that we had in my ED. While I didn't point fingers, I hopefully opened some eyes about the things we could have done far better for that patient...

And amazingly enough, I got some good comments from some of the "long-time" nurses (not all) about doing a pretty good presentation. Not bad for being a new nurse and it being my first presentation!

No not yet. But eyeing a few places while I try to convince my wife it is a good idea. So how is GAA? :p

While shopping today I saw one of the most cringe-y ambulances. Imagine an E250 with blue and white stars painted all over it, a neon blue brush guard with a bald eagle head mounted to it, a top with twice as many lights as the next IFT company, and finished with a couple of dollar store US flags on the mirrors.

I wish I had a dashcam on the car.

Officially picked up for HEMS :D Can't wait to start learning, and actually being able to apply it (unlike my normal inner city stuff). @Remi thanks for the info, it was definitely beneficial!
