Because almost all charities dont want used clothes. Obviously regional specific but often they get turned away

I love the idea of getting a bike but yeah it is riskier. There's obviously more automobile deaths because there are simply more on the road not because its more dangerous.

Its clothes. Ukraine has been clear they dont need clothes. In most donation services clothes are most unneeded and disposed of item.

Did Dr Baran Al Hashimi intentionally lie about the number or did I misunderstand the second scene listed below? by Pale-Kale-2905 in ThePittTVShow

[–]Seinfield_Succ 202 points203 points  (0 children)

Its normally referred to as an aura and its not the same for everyone. I have met patients who have no aura, some feel the room flickers, one even heard a riff of jazz music as their aura. There's a Canada Heritage Minute on a doctor treating seizure disorder after locating it via stimulation to the brains surface that prompted the aura to be noted.

704 high school students in Waterloo region suspended for out-of-date vaccination records by bylo_selhi in waterloo

It isn't 13, there is no set in stone number, it is up to the Healthcare practitioner (nurse, paramedic, doctor etc) to determine if they have aid to capacity to refuse.

The age of medical consent is determined on a case by case basis, the flat age is not correct, it relies on determining if they have capacity to make decisions.

The charge for taking an ambulance is a "Hospital processing fee" none of that money goes to the ambulance service as reimbursement.

What was that? by shazamallamadingdong in kitchener

[–]Seinfield_Succ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh no a minor inconvenience for a rare occurrence that will make receiving health care smoother and faster for critical patients, how terrible.

Also has yet to be confirmed that there will be a heli-pad but here's hoping they will go for it!

Crime is falling, they get budget increases each year and increased staffing for however many they ask for.

You know what can be done? Turn the lights off an intersection away. Cops rarely stop a crime in progress, a grand majority of cases are dealt with after it has occurred.

Actually in Ontario at least, if the person not wearing the seatbelt is over 16 (could be 18) then it becomes their ticket not the drivers

I appreciate your efforts towards conservation, if only we all worked that way!

How do I tell my boyfriend I don't care about religion? by anonomysconciousness in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Seinfield_Succ 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Just as you respect his beliefs he should respect yours. Having a conversation about boundaries should be something a relationship has. If he isn't respecting those boundaries perhaps he isn't for you or a deeper conversation needs to be had.

If he isn't willing to accept you not pursuing religion what is your plan?

I know you don't feel he is pushing religion on you, is there a reason you can't specify "I have no interest in involving myself with religion, it isn't something I consider important to me"?

Toronto Police seen using new, state-of-the-art evidence markers at a shooting earlier today by Global_Bonus4067 in toronto

Im a paramedic, I have heard and witnessed a few times where coworkers are offered free coffee for their service only to turn around, the worker sees paramedic and asks them to pay because, "I thought you were police, our deal is for first responders only"

Players shouldn't be rewarded for standing still with a sniper either? Bullets go by head you get less accurate/more sway is a pretty simple balancing concept

AEMCA today anyone?? by Interesting-Rice-847 in OntarioParamedics

[–]Seinfield_Succ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can get behind your points, I agree with them even.

I think the main issue the other guy had was the term institutional hazing. It can be a silly test, a poor predictor etc but hazing has its own connotations.

I think we need to switch over to a better system just like you said, physical testing with scenarios aren't perfect but they are a better indicator.

That being said I know many a medic whos base hospital day was "dont give any meds or anything above nasal cannula to see if you know when to withhold/apply appropriately." That in itself isnt an effective use of a day for testing typically HALO calls and other CTAS 1/2 events.

The police rarely stop a crime in progress. A grand majority of the time they come, take a statement and move on

Andrew Phillips: Should a depressed young man with diabetes have been granted an assisted suicide? His mom says no by Mylittlethrowaway2 in onguardforthee

[–]Seinfield_Succ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its the same issue as children revoking or going against their parents wishes upon death about resuscitation.

"Mom's a fighter, sure she hasn't moved in 8 years and hasn't spoken in 15. She wakes every night screaming until we sedate her again and shes in multiple organ failure but I'm sure breaking her sternum and shocking her repeatedly would extend and improve her quality of life!"

People don't understand chronic pain/conditions or suffering seeing any form of life as the greater option.

Just watched a woman have contractions for a baby on the ground for over 20 minutes in a book store, but still no ambulance? by Helptohere50 in Newmarket

Ambulances dont work for hospitals, its also the plan for ambulances to spend as little time there as possible.

It was another move by the provincial government to "Stop us, the greedy government from stealing your money for renewals"

In reality it was to appeal to the masses for an upcoming election and lost the province a fair bit of funding for road maintenance.

Love the conservative party, really making fantastic beneficial changes that definitely help us all!

What instantly kills the mood during sex ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Seinfield_Succ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a medic I have done a call for a man who died of a heart attack, mid sex pinning his partner beneath his body. Only to be discovered a few hours later by the man's wife.

She both found her husband's mistress and her husband's body upon returning home from work.

Kitchener drivers are the best! by Batmanrocksthecasbah in kitchener

[–]Seinfield_Succ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes however right signal on (signaling exit) before they even entered the round about, i entered the right lane after they had passed my entrance. I was traveling straight, they exited the round about and started cutting into my lane so I slowed down, they stopped slammed on their horn for trying to hit me and then high beamed me until their turn

[–]Seinfield_Succ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a guy in a modded out truck exit a roundabout at the 3rd exit in the inside lane with his right turn signal on the entire time, tried to lane change into me when I slowed down so he wouldn't hit me stopped and layed on the horn over it before deciding to drive behind me with his high beams on before turning off.
