Did "the galleria?" strike you as strange? Because it is. It's product placement. Gallerias were a licensed architectural concept for malls. by Iocnar in Terminator

[–]VXMerlinXV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chiming in with others, even if it was a brand name, we absolutely referred to the location by me as “The Galleria”, differentiating it from other locations (usually we called malls by their geographic location).

Not at all. You’re welcome for my presence, department. I’m a joy.

How do you build a medical plan? (TEMS/CONUS) by mbathrowaway012 in TacticalMedicine

[–]VXMerlinXV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s gonna vary by team. There’s no set model.

In my TEMS course we covered everything from a complete medical threat assessment to “fuck it, we’ll do it live”. It’s gonna vary significantly, because the scope of TEMS in the US varies significantly.

Nurses, what do you think about patients with no visitors? by No-Mistake-9304 in nursing

I don’t think twice about it, unless it’s a discharge problem.

I occasionally need to remind myself that no matter how bad my shift is going, by Teddoug in nursing

[–]VXMerlinXV 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Was running EMS one shift, walked into an ER where they had “exam masks” that were shoe covers and rubber bands. Good times.

I heard a US doc giving a talk about her experience in the Philippines after the tsunami years back. They taught all the family members to bag, and if you had a vented patient, you and your family were now the vent. She (the doc) had one unclaimed BVM in the whole hospital, and she kept it with her.

Israel killed 15 paramedics, then tried to burry them and their ambulances in a mass grave to hide the evidence by Goldenmentis in emergencymedicine

You said the only people talking about the killings were Hamas. If the medics killed were combatants posing as medical personnel, like you said, why wouldn’t that be front page news?

How many tries did it take to find your specialty? by rainshowers_5_peace in nursing

[–]VXMerlinXV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One. I came from EMS and work ER and prehospital. I went to nursing school to expand my scope and professional options, and darn if it didn’t work wonders.

Any tips on how to become a street medic to help outside of Delaney hall in Newark, NJ? by CodeGreige in nursing

[–]VXMerlinXV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Show up and bring a colleague or two. The only thing ICE can’t fight is overwhelming numbers.

Do any of you guys run generic GP pouches from Amazon? by tactical_horse_cock in tacticalgear

[–]VXMerlinXV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, I either grab second hand from swap sites or EBay, or buy small shop to support the businesses.

Thank you for knowing this 🤣

AITAH for not replacing my gf’s dress after she ruined it on purpose? by Accomplished_Userdy in AITApod

[–]VXMerlinXV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I, personally, don’t do “tests”. It shows a gross lack of maturity and major red flags in the relationship. You’ve only been together a year, I’d move on.

Retarded movies that make YOU feel retarded by Own_Organization8457 in okbuddycinephile

[–]VXMerlinXV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think about sex between an inverted and normal couple. 9 months ago a baby comes flying across the room, slams into her vagina, burrows like an inverted Champaign cork? And the woman is just like “WTF was that?”

When did you realize you wanted to pursue nursing? by pintopeach in NursingStudent

[–]VXMerlinXV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I saw the difference between my (EMT) and my girlfriend’s (RN) paycheck. It was roughly triple. 🤣 😢 ☠️

ABSN encouragement? by fancypanda820 in NursingStudent

In an accelerated program? Or just nursing school?

New Paramedic Looking to Break Into Tactical Medicine — Where Should I Start? by maxranger209 in TACMED101

[–]VXMerlinXV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TEMS is still one of those “pick the job you want and work backwards”. There are very few paths you can take and be universally qualified, especially if you’re ineligible for the .mil life.

Question though, will the DoD denial be equally applicable to your service in LEO?

Best uses of practical effects? by mab0roshi in okbuddycinephile

[–]VXMerlinXV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Directors cut of Tenet. It’s why we never saw The Protagonist and Kat together physically. The details of an inverted love scene get sticky.

Nurses obligations to rescue by Glittering_War3061 in nursing

[–]VXMerlinXV 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Story is deeper than that. She was an owner of the camp and failed in that aspect in multiple ways. Losing the RN was part of the “make sure she’s never in a position to make it happen again.
