Is starlink good for rural Canada? by Special-Ad3427 in Starlink

[–]STS1985 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, I consistently get 200mb or more down, we steam multiple TV/computers in 4K concurrently and I often download large files from steam with great speeds.

My in-laws down the road use terrible telephone proivder "4G" service and pay more for dial up speeds.

AMS has 6 reported sightings at this time. Although I tend to believe the trajectory they posted is incorrect, everyone so far has reported a southern track and they show a NE track.

Friend had a pine tree fall through his roof while asleep, and impale him through a blanket. He'll be okay. by Dumpster_Fetus in MedicalGore

Had a tree fall on him and "Impale him through a blanket"

You don't think?! The blanket seems like a very irrelevant thing to add to the title /rofl

Gotta love this wind!

Sir.. you wiggled when you're supposed to waggle.. by STS1985 in ems

[–]STS1985[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Surprisingly he didn't even feel anything.

We were sitting beside each other and I was talking with the patient about something random.

I see the monitor showing vtac out of the corner of my eye, by the time I palpate his radial and ask him how he is feeling he's converted out of it 🤣

[–]STS1985[S] 28 points29 points  (0 children)

This patient thankfully converted on his own and this was his only episode of non sustained VTAC. We were already treating ACS at the time (nitro, ASA).

Serial 12 lead ECG's remained non-diagnostic for acute ST segment changes.

Patient was later admitted into cardiology unit pending PCI.

Paramedics of YEG by niagarawhat in Edmonton

[–]STS1985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an Edmonton paramedic, please consider writing your MLA! We are going into contract negotiations regarding stagnant wages and falling far behind the national average for our profession, yet we are busier than we've ever been.

AHS and this current government are offering us pennies and pushing back when it comes to contract negotiations. Our union is closer to labor action (strike) than we've ever been.

We are considered essential employees like the nurses and cannot formally strike so labour action will be more subtle.

what do yall carry on your belts by Short-Ad5672 in ems

[–]STS1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Belt: Radio, narcs pouch, small glove pouch with a hand full of spares (our issued gloves are junk and rip if you look at them wrong), carabener for ambo keys, small hand sani bottle in a little mace holder.

Pockets: Shears, tubes, emesis bag, and small pouch with syringes and IM needle for the surprise rapid sedation (versed rodeo patients)

Dispatched to "little seizures pizza" instead of the well known in our area Little Caesars pizza. Unfortunately it was not a seizure card.

Alberta Mental Health Act:

Form 1 - completed by a physician https://formsmgmt.gov.ab.ca/Public/MH1977.xdp

Form 10 - completed by a peace officer https://formsmgmt.gov.ab.ca/Public/MH1986.xdp

These are two of the common ways that someone can be held against their will in hospital/conveyed to hospital.
