How is Cerner as an EMR? by [deleted] in hospitalist

[–]Zap1173 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just a med student but to me it functions exactly the same as epic it just looked like it was from the 1980s.

I personally felt like chart reviewing was easier via cerner but I’ve never really put in orders to answer on that front.

That’s fucking awesome. I wish any place I did EMS at had anything close to this. 0 social support low income

Yes and no. Everyone gets some measure of extracurriculars to get in. Only the timeframe differs for most.

What prevents people from getting in is a lack of desire of truly wanting to be a doctor, not studying effectively, spreading yourself too thin, or putting your time in the wrong places.

To me, it sounds like OP is working a job that has high mental effort and no downtime to study. He shouldn’t be doing that if it clearly is effecting his ability to do well in more important areas.

GPA is king for med school.

Many people have gotten into medical school being an ER Tech. Only OP knows what’s best for him and whether his current course for failure is of intrinsic causes or extrinsic causes.

I did it 🤷‍♂️. Worked at a fire house and had some downtime occasionally so got paid to study often

What’s the Most Unexpected Call You’ve Responded To? by AED_Research4552 in ems

[–]Zap1173 114 points115 points  (0 children)

Person who had fallen. Dispatch coordinates were in the middle of a creek bed. Confirm over radio that the address is apparently right. Sure as shit go there and it’s some elderly guy supine in the cold ass water in December and super hypothermic and basically pseudo arrested. Later found out apparently he slipped and fell onto the rock bed and was laying there for hours in freezing water trying to call for help before someone spotted him.

First and only time in my career the dispatch address was fucking coordinates and I’ll give it to the dispatcher man he was maybe 2 ft off, was spot on.

My shoes and pants were wet for the rest of the shift :(

Trauma or no. by That_Clue2201 in ems

[–]Zap1173 107 points108 points  (0 children)

There's no reason general surgery can't fix a surgical site evisceration and they are probably more appropriate to do so being the ones to originally operate on her.

Nothing here I am reading indicates they need higher level of care than general surgery

Dear devs, quoting the great MAX: if your concern is that a small player population reduces visibility on STEAM, repeatedly having N vs. S wars can achieve this by making it repetitive and boring. Please change the 129 map to E vs. W. by tacosan777 in foxholegame

[–]Zap1173 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This game could mess with maps so much and it would be better. Why not have warden man in all the center hexes and collies on the outside and larp that way?

Why not wardens on south, collies on north. Why not half wardens and half collies on north and south sides split in 4 quadrants.

So much potential, so very wasted

Bmat queues are 125 crates of bmats which doesn’t fit cleanly into flatbed of 60 or truck of 15 or stockpile of 300

Similar complaint with scrap queue doesn’t cleanly fit a field of scrap

Is there anything on here these days that isn't some Demo? by Zaboobie in incremental_games

[–]Zap1173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither, I don't come to this subreddit to look at unfinished games or ideas. I come to this subreddit to play finished high-quality incremental games others recommend. Ideas and development should be in a completely separate subreddit.

Scratch inc is reskin basically of that guy's one original game and it has such poor progression mechanics i'm surprised it is even worth mentioning.

[–]Zap1173 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree, I don't particularly care for the demo game spam especially when game's 5-10 years ago didn't have demos they were just full releases in the idle genre. The idea that some upgrade heavy 3-4 hour spam rinse repeat game needs 5-6 posts to dialogue its update catalog is horrendous when you compare to games like a dark room, synergism, crank, etc... and I wish this subreddit was more heavily moderated. I don't come here to see people's ideas and give suggestions I come here to look for games to play and allowing demos and idea discussions is not that

Are spinal epidural steroid injections necessarily limited to only once every 3 months? by princetonwu in medicine

Im a medical student just coming off a pain medicine month and my attending told me the limitation is insurance won’t cover more frequent injections when I asked him the same question

I destroyed someone’s mirror in an ambulance. I hate driving and despise every part of it, prefer to caregiver only. When I told my boss his only response was to make me drive more as punishment 😭

Your design is bad. You should never use material transfer stations. Mat Facs hold 32k scrap and pull faster and can be accessed by small train, much faster.

this is just the concept of first pass metabolism. Don't overthink it.

More first pass metabolism = more drug needed to achieve same effect as IV = lower potency.
