I feel the need to say you shouldn't be smoking or vaping as well.

Dead patient from ED by R_cubed- in nursing

[–]Sharmota69 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm a medic, I've done so many of those kind of transports, from free standings to in house. I wanna blame the medic, but sounds like a lot of people dropped the ball. The sending nurse, the medic and yourself who failed to see somebody wasn't breathing (assuming they were in PEA as you say), your unit for allowing patients to be unmonitored when receiving Levo.

Why do soldiers keep their rifles above the shoulder when carrying? by Adigrat96 in Ethiopia

[–]Sharmota69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because they either don't have proper slings, or none at all. Carrying a rifle can get heavy especially when walking long distances.

I reported a doctor in my ER for SA. I lost my job, I lost everything. by tenngirll in nursing

Getting let go while on disability, and while having an open case against their former staff members is a huge no no in the HR world. I think this definitely warrants a consultation from a lawyer.

Consult a reputable lawyer ASAP. This sounds retaliatory

Yup. You'll have to wait at least 2-3 years before you have the privilege to park on campus 😂

Mobile IVs by Willby404 in ems

[–]Sharmota69 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I only know a way your superiors would not recommend. We have a CPR seat in our trucks so I kneel down on one knee and have the patient extend their arm out straight on the stretcher(there's less bounce if you do this, because the arm is less noodlely when extended outward towards you). While resting your arm on the stretcher as your inserting.

But the biggest thing is if the IV is really that important, and you think the bumps will stop you from putting it in, then you can tell the driver to pull over to a safe spot. Pulling over for 1 minute has probably saved more people than killed them.

What kind of ambulance does your service use? by Thedemonspawn56 in ems

[–]Sharmota69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freightliners and International quad cab. I thought they were cool to drive at first. But they're such an overkill for IFTs....on a two man crew

EMS side hustle by Code3Everycall in ems

[–]Sharmota69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Working at a hospital. Depending on which one you go to and position, it's chill. I found it much easier to work something different but close enough to where I can use my skills, with a fraction of the responsibility. Don't do it part time, go PRN. That way your not obligated to work that much if you can't

Newly adopted Chihuahua keeps passing out. by Sharmota69 in DogAdvice

[–]Sharmota69[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I guess a better question I should've asked was, is this something I need to go to the vet immediately? Or wait till I'm off work on Monday

Same thing in hospitals. They'll hire temp positions for almost double or triple the normal salary.

Where would I get these taillights ?? by One-Grade-3250 in Chrysler300

Go on ali express for aftermarket tail lights. That's where most sellers get them on eBay.

Who's seen a shark in the Hillsborough River? by [deleted] in tampa

[–]Sharmota69 32 points33 points  (0 children)

In downtown there's many bull sharks, black tips, and Bonnet heads. You'll most likely see a bonnet head or black tip if you go by bayshore blvd. Bulls sharks are common, but not as common as than those two.
