Medical aide in Skylark Towers

ALS-1
BLS-1
ES-1

I grab my mug, drop my papers and leave my office in the hospital. My first call with the ERT is a big change of scene for me. New city, new life.

I grab my gear and unplug my truck's charging power cord and get in flicking on the lights. I see the other medics leave the side door to their trucks as I pull out of my parking space giving a short blast of a yelp.

When I pull on the interpass I jump my speed up to 75 mph and see no traffic for miles.

"ES-1 to copa, I'm en route code 2 on trulit interpass"

*I pull up to the building, turn into the half-circle driveway, park next to the door and shut off the lights*

"BLS-1 on scene."

*I grab a portable radio and get out, walk around and get the jump bag. My partner and I walk thru the door, I push it all the way open so it stays open and find the victims, one on the floor, another sitting in a chair next to the desk*

ALS 1 arrives I shut off the lights get out and have Jimeny get the stercher and truama kit while I take the EKG. "ALS 1 on the scene"

Pc-6 arriving

I go to the victim who is the first aider. "Mc Guire, I think you're taking the diabetic and I'm taking the first aider"

I pull up, reach into each cab and flick on the lights again.. Just so people don't go hitting my staffed vehicles

I walk in and start my medical assistance by making sure both patients are under control. I check with both teams and then start to assist the BLS with their victim.

"Has anyone talked to a witness to get what happened?"

Both victims seem to be doing good, the needle vic should be fine I think

*I put the jump bag down and kneel down in front of the the first responder sitting on the chair*

"How are you sir? I'm ERT EMT Doug McGuire, this is my partner Dan Kiefer."

(Just double checking, he's on BLS-1 now, correct?)

"Where did the needle stick you?" I ask

*He shows me the palm of his right hand, there is some blood on the bottom of the palm*

"Right down here, I reached down to help the girl of there, and the needle was sticking out, but I didn't see it and I just pushed my hand right into it."

"Alright, do you have any medical history?" *I ask as I take his blood pressure. I write 110/70 on the call sheet*

"4 years ago, I was on my road bike in a triathlon, fell over, got some road rash on my side and some cuts on my arm. EMTs treated me at the race, never went to the hospital."

"Oh really? I used to do 5-k races. Could never do a tri though. I don't have time for the training." I say and we both chuckle

"Alright, I'm going to check your pulse." *I write 65 beats per minute on the sheet*

"Do you have any allergies?"

"No"

"Where is the needle now?" I ask him

"It should still be in that girls bag." He says

"Okay."

"Hey Ridgeback, Riles. Be careful, the first responder advised me the needle still may be in the girls bag." I yell over to them.


(To COPA)
"BLS-1 to COPA. Status for the first responder. Blood pressure 110/70. Pulse 65 Beats per minute. We will be transporting shortly."

*I clean the small wound and but some disinfectant on it. I put a band aid on it for temporary protection until we get to the hospital*

"Sir, can you stand up and walk at your own strength? If you can I'm just going to have you walk out to the ambulance."

((I thought you were on the vic? Oh well, I guess you'll take the first aider, and ALS with Riles will be on the Vic.. Oh well, little mixup, no worries lets run with it.))

Advising hospital. Respond code 2

((Sorry, I must have read the alarm center wrong))

*The man stands up*

"Yeah, I'm good. Am I going to your hospital?" He asks.

"Yes, you're re going to the ERT hospital." I reply.

"If you're all set let's go out to the ambulance."

"Yes. Umm, actually, if you wouldn't mind, can you grab my briefcase it's right by chair I was on."

"Sure, no problem."

*I close up the jump bag. Put the strap over my shoulder, pick up his briefcase, and walk him to BLS-1. I open the back door for him.*

"Just go ahead lay down on the stretcher. I have to strap you in just for safety."

*He lays down, I strap him in and put his briefcase on the bench. I shut the doors, put the jump bag in it's cabinet, and hop into the drivers seat. Put some more info into the EAT, then pull out of the driver way and drive toward the base*

"BLS-1, transporting one male to ERT hospital. Code 2."

Copy that BLS-1. If available after, I may need you out in trulit for standby.

((Don't forget vehicle ops ))

"BLS-1 at ERT hospital. We will not delay at hospital in case we are needed at the fire."

*I pull up to the emergency room. I shut off the lights, turn off the engine, and get out. We pull out the stretcher, I put the briefcase on the back of the stretcher and we roll him into the hospital.*

*I handover the information to the ER, then roll the stretcher to the assigned room. The man gets on the bed. I go out, change the sheets on the stretcher, wash my hands, and we roll it back out and put it in the BLS*

*I get back in the drivers seat, and pick up the radio*

"BLS-1 to COPA, patient in hospital care, we are available. Time out 1424h."

I go to the girl with a head truama do a routine ABC's and I put a c-collar on her.
"Hi I'm Zack Ridgeback and this is Jimeny. It's going to be fine"
"

Copy that BLS 1 respond code 2 to fire

((Zack, she's unconscious.))

"BLS-1 responding."

*I turn on the engine, drive to the end of the driveway, flick on the lights, and drive to the fire.*

Zack, you keep making sure she's okay, I'm gonna go talk to the receptionist see if I can get any more information.<br><br>I walk over to be greeted by a twenty something brunette. <br><br>"Hi, my name is Jason Riles of the ERT, did you see what happened?"<br><br>"Yeah, yeah, we had the floors mopped and I guess she didn't see the sign or something because she walked across and her high heel slipped and she hit the ground, and my desk, pretty bad.. She gonna be okay?"<br><br>"Yes. Did you know her?"<br><br>"Yeah, she' an intern. She has diabetes if that helps. Nothing else though.. Here, I'll pull her employee medical file for you. I'll do the same for the first aider. Is that okay?"<br><br>"That's perfect miss, once you get them out, I'll bring them right over to the hospital! That'd help us for sure"<br><br>I walk away and radio to COPA<br><br>"COPA, we've got a copy now of both victim's medical files from the skylark towers. I'll be bringing them to the hospital with the female vic when we move out."<br>

I put her on the EKG ,she's in sinus tachycardia. I start an iv with no sugar . I take a glucose test she has low bloodsugar. I then start a ringers soulution and remove the IV with no sugar. "Copy that Riles"

I look at her vital signs BP 190/120 Pulse Ox 98 percent pulse 120. I have Jimeny get the clipboard as I administer oxygen via mask. "Riles, can you read me her medical history."

Pc 6 clear

I take the clipboard and put down

I get in my unit, flick on the siren and merge into the traffic heading to the hospital. I'll be running in front of the ALS unit, so he pulls in behind me and follows

I put the girl on the stercher move her to the ambulance and begin transit to the hospital. Transit Priority: Code2 "Riles When I get to the ER can you give me her medical history as well as the first aiders.Meet me in the ER"

I get to the ER I get the paper work I give both of them to a nurse as Jimeny rolls the sterecther behind me. I bring her to truma room 1 and call out vitals. "ALS 1 at the hospital" I then clean up the ambulance and restock. "ALS 1 avaible for callout."

"ALS 1 please respond to harbour incident. Drowning victim, under water for at least 10 minutes. We are extricating now."
