OAK DEMONS

"I WATCHED HIM TURN AROUND WALK BACK TO THE CHAIR HE'D BEEN SITTING ON, GRAB IT WITH ONE HAND AND THROW IT AT THE CEILING, LIKE IT WAS NOTHING. WEIRD ENOUGH, IT STUCK. ALL FOR LEGS WERE EMBEDDED IN THE DRYWALL AND WERE SEVERAL INCHES DEEP. I WAS GLAD THE DEMON WAS DEAD. SQUISHED BY THE OAK SINGLE SEAT. MY PATIENT THEN TURNED TO ME AND SAID "I GOT THE ******, NOW! LETS GO GET ME SOME DRUGS". SO WE DID EXACTLY THAT (AT THE HOSPITAL)."
-SAMUEL M-F

MEDICS AND THE ER: HOW CAN SOMETHING SO OBVIOUS BE SUCH A CHALLENGE.

Having Paramedics in the ER is a common sense move for so many places, but the limitations and oversight can be a python wrapped around a helpless prey squeezing and squeezing.
I have had the pleasure of working some very wonderful ER’s but have run face first into some very interesting issues. If you get a chance to work a hospital setting check, double check and verify that the following issues are covered:
  • Scope of practice - just because you  treat pain, set injuries, RSI, and form field impressions, doesn’t mean you can splint a finger in an ER.
  • License Limitations- be very careful what your licensing agency allows you to do and not what not to do. -Check if you can help in Lab or on the hospital floor. You man need to petition your board for expanded practice and prove competency.
  • Pay- Please check, recheck and do it all over again that you are following Fair Labor Standards Act and State Laws. Labor laws for nursing are NOT the same for medics.
  • Support role- check to see the expectation of management to see if you are allowed to triage, assess, treat, collaborate, and discharge a patient.
  • Talk to your medical director.
  • Last but not least, remember that in almost every scenario your scope and license are supervised by ALS/MD’s and not by an RN.

Here is something that just popped up... We were reviewing glucagon in an AEMT class, and one of our medics stated that we can't repeat the dose in the field... any idea why this would be?
