This incident is another fine example of excellent PFD ALS patient care coupled with a good BLS crew. Patient was a mulitple major trauma victim.

Sure. The good stuff always happens when I'm on the SOUTH end. :roll:

Ugh....why do we have to have a curfew at the firehouse???? do you know how many accidents i've missed bc of it.....o well only 3 more days and no more curfew

[DRD 0]

curfew?

[Guest alsfirefighter]

You'll get your share of accidents in course of time. Be careful what you wish for, you could get what you want, first person or a friend or family member.

[Guest EMSwhitecloud]

DRD if you under 18 or still in school you have to be out of the firehouse by 9 on school nights and cant go on calls after 11 and on weekends you have to be out by 11 but can go on calls whenever you want.

ALS yea i know im not saying i wish it happens or that its cool i just seem to miss the "good" stuff....thats what you get for being a white cloud.

[Guest alsfirefighter]

It comes in spurts. Also you'll see...Trauma isn't "cool stuff" its quick and systematic...medical calls are the real work.

[WAS967 97]

Yeah. Turning over a bad call to a helicopter is a sinch, since you don't have to worry about a long transport and you can restock quick and be back in service.
