But continuing to COUNT on that would be a huge mistake.<br />My goal is to know enough to be able to pick up on things the medics might miss, so that we are helpful to them, rather than always the other way around.Linda Wyatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15502645664373341448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081507935145885610.post-47620929544063497052011-03-27T19:36:38.093-04:002011-03-27T19:36:38.093-04:00Nice post and very well laid out.

Many of our EMT's rely on that ALS backup to both confirm their assessment and provide support. On the rare occasion when ALS has no units available, these same folks find themselves in deep poop. Too many still rely on following protocols without making any decisions on their own. They expect the protocol to make the decision for them, and we all know that this isn't how it works.<br /> I look forward to reading more from you. I'd love to know what county you are in, just in case it's a place I visit.<br />UUUnlimited-Unscheduled Hourshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14403412663056266260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081507935145885610.post-42275622017916576032011-03-27T10:09:12.989-04:002011-03-27T10:09:12.989-04:00Great post.
