You are an ALS unit consisting of a new paramedic and an EMT-I. You are called to an unresponsive 32 year old female. Upon arrival to the scene, you find the patient lying prone on the floor, naked with a sheet covering her body up to her shoulders. Patient has small cuts on her hands and fingers, which the family states are the result of hitting her hand on some broken glass on the floor when she fell out of bed. You see the bed has been moved to the corner of the room, mattresses leaned up against the wall (presumably to assist in your access to the patient). Patient appears to weigh approximately 350 lbs. Fire dept is en route to assist, but is about 2 minutes away. Patient has snoring respirations and is responsive to painful stimuli only.
