Shit that's not even bad. About 4 hours ago I had to code a 9 day old because his fat fucking mom rolled over him and smashed his head.

Edit: Cool, I'm getting downvoted because I have yet another reason to hate ignorance and obesity. Seriously people, stop it with the Big Macs, and don't put your infants in the same bed as you.

Medic here. How the fuck should I work a code if my patient has an LVAD? We all just stood around and pushed drugs at the last one and it didn't seem right.

He was in v fib. We intubated, pushed 3 rounds of epi and defibrillated him. He went into a sinus rhythm and we were able to transport him. I understand that the treatment depends on if it's electrical vs mechanical with those things from your other comments. It's an odd situation

Last patient that assaulted me got charged with a felony, and I dropped his ass to the ground with the assistance of the police officer on scene.

I made $10.91 an hour at the first EMS job I ever had.
