Thought about becoming a police officer but life situations are kind of destroying that dream. Looking into becoming a emt/medic. Was born premature and I believe I was kept alive to help others in any way possible. Stay safe out there man.
I was a mechanic on Ambo's for 7 years. You could tell what neighborhoods the Ambo's were in by their load-outs. The bad neighborhoods had chest seals and Swat-Cats (not the cartoon) all over the place!
thank you for these awesome videos. Helpful to the general public and even other EMS staff both ALS/BLS. There arent many quality videos explaining ambulances, the crew, the medications, etc. our videos shine light on what ambulances and paramedics are about.
It's incredible to see all the bells and whistles that an Ambulance has over there. In Venezuela, public ambulances have nearly nothing inside, the best well equipped ambulance I've seen (for venezuelan standards) was one of the University's Volunteers Firefighters.
I'm just about to finish EMT class on the 15th and than ill go and do my state final if i pass that ill be doing an internship at one of the local ems stations and ive already done a 12 hour ride time with them and they have the Lifepak 15 and it is amazing.
I'm with you on immobilisation. No efficacy has been shown in studies and it honestly also lacks plausibility. Not moving the patient unnecessarily? Sure. Absolutely plausible. The use of a scoop stretcher to pick up a patient also makes perfect sense. But strapping them to a hard, flat, uncomfortable board is hardly sensible, especially as the restraints will cause normal movements, such as breathing, to have an effect on the spine that it usually would not. Same goes for C collars. Sure, limiting movement to some extent may bring an advantage, but entirely fixing the head will cause every attempted movement to cause a tension force onto the spine which it would not without the collar.
Dangerous situations such as domestic violence, shootings, certain mass casualties. EMTs and paramedics always have police secure the scene in those situations but it's an added level of safety.
*Thank you for this in-depth tour! Very interesting.* *Your video production quality is going through the roof (music, aerial views, editing etc).* *Very well done!*
I have epilepsy and other medical issues and I never remember anything so this is so helpful to know what you carry and how you can help someone until you can get them to the hospital.
I've ridden in ambulances on several occasions as I'm a type 1 diabetic as well as due to cycling injuries; bicycling that is. I'm usually not in a position to see everything when I'm being transported, but I've always been curious to see what's carried in these rigs. Thanks for giving us a tour and thank you for your service in both arenas of service in which you serve.
Here's a question for you. I had a displaced femoral neck fracture following a bicycle wipe out. A fellow cyclist that saw everything from behind was a vascular surgeon and had me stand and put weight on the affected side, the side where the fracture had occurred. Was that a bad idea on his part? He was the one that dialed 911 and he was trying to inform the first res-ponders of the situation at hand and that was what caused him to suspect a femoral head fracture. It was later determined that it was a displaced femoral head fracture at the hospital. Might have his decision to have me stand on the affected leg have caused the displacement of the fracture? By the way, I was able to converse with the paramedics on the ride to the hospital, though I was in a bit of pain. The real pain came when I got the bill later.
Wow you guys have some really good expensive equipment very impressive. King vision, pump in every unit, auto thumper all the right meds etc and a brand new looking rig to boot very impressive clearly well funded.
I never used the simple O2 masks until we got rid of them. First shift I was in a Squad that didn't have one I had a COPD patient who stated he didn't breath through his nose and needed O2... Murphy's law I suppose. Haven't needed one since
You should have considered an oronasal mask (either a rebreather or non-rebreather type) or a venturi mask. Also in that case, consider non-invasive ventilation (if the patient's conscious).
Great video. Note about connecting the Pulmodyne O2Resq CPAP unit to oxygen: it needs to be powered with 50PSI of oxygen to deliver the intended FIO2 and peep. So unscrewing your threaded tubing attachment from your flowmeter and crewing the CPAP generator on is basically a no-no as your flow-meter will not deliver 50PSI even at its highest setting. Your units should come with a disposable quick-connect that snaps into the Ohmeda connection on the panel, or buy a reusable one.
It is kinda scary how much our rigs are alike, even down to the interior colors and stretchers for us here in rural Ga. We do have the Lifepak 15 but do not yet have some of your nicer toys like the Lucas or quicktrach. We have to use a cobbled together kit using a french cath, ext tubing, and 14 ga INT. We recently had new protocols allowing us to use a scalpel to cut the skin but are then supposed to use a needle to pierce the cric membrane and just hold it at that. Nice video
Theyre not so much goodies as so they are life saving materials and items to help with the process of patient care and assessment. A major part they have all those goodies is for dire situations to help stabilize the Patient until they get to the hospital to where they can intervene with the more widely access of knowledgeable personal and materials so provide the best possible care to get the patient back to what is considered a baseline or stable to where they can be either be released or a follow up to that hospital or a specialist for their condition.
Hey PrepMedic, im from Cologne (Germany). In our Ambulances we have The ,,Corpuls C3" as an Defibrillator. Pleas try it or look it up it'll change your Opinion on Monitors. :) If u want u can Look up our Ambulances too. (excuse my english grammar.) Your Doing a Great Job. Thank u For ur Service.
Why have the protocols changed for immobilization? Just curious because I thought those protocols were to prevent a possible neck and or back injury from getting worse and or life threatening.
as far as i know, this is just a theory, without any actual proof. I'm a paramedic in germany and we immoilize everybody whos had a significant mechanism of injury and or back pain.
Mechanism of industry as a standard for medical intervention is on the way out if not generally frowned upon. Seems like EMS all over the world cold do with some standardized practices. Look up the NEXUS and the canadian C-spine rules.
PrepMedic I've read many of those studies too. We did away with spinal immobilization just based on MOI years ago. They have to meet certain criteria after proper assessment. If a training officer got wind you immobilized a patient "just because they had a significant MOI" you'd be taken off road and grilled about every drug and procedure! Did I read correct that Germans immobilize everybody with back pain?
Neat to see how your cars are stocked, the units I work out of are very stocked, seems like your units of a lot of empty space. Dont know what I like more
I like the Chevrolet Chassy! It looks neat and just like the Chevrolet Express but if you were to add the Patient Compartment Module onto the back. I like it.
Why are you afraid of an ambulance? Its not a serial killer it saves lives! Go walk inside one to conquer this irrational fear. Fears are mental blocks. They should all be removed.
@@lass-inangeles7564 one cannot simply remove all fears, indeed irrational fears are named irrational for a reason. But fear is what drives us and keeps us pushing to protect those we love from that it is we fear.
Hey Sam your videos are amazing I love them so much they're very inspirational because I want to become a paramedic mainly I also live here in Colorado got plenty of nice medical agencies here
Interesting to see how other countries set up there trucks. We use the smaller "euro style" trucks but with a better layout we carry the same amount of equipment in a smaller package.
Do you guys carry helmets? Here in Ontario we do for fires, MVC, anytime on a call in the road, high angle rescue(SRU guys)? The ballistic vests are something Im seeing a lot of services starting to adopt. Here in Ontario not as much but a good idea, I think out in BC or Alberta the medics have tac vests they can wear. Interesting video to see what the partners down south use. Good vid!
Your ambulance layouts are pretty much like ours, we also keep our bags, by the captains chair, but we keep our EKG on the bench. And keep a broom in the storage outside compartment....do you use the I-0 bone drill? We recently got them. They come in handy when you can't get a IV...by veins
Just a request but when going over the more advanced medical stuff could you put it in lamens terms aswell because half the stuff I didnt understand but yet you gained a new subscriber
lol all of our meds aside from narcs are in the access of everyone. Even have ketamine that as I an EMT can get to. It's quite handy when the medic is already too busy and we can grab the kits.
Sorry I'm commenting so much. But again I work over in Harlan, and normal paramedics in Shelby County have needle cric. And if you have critical care paramedic you can surgical cric
I was just wondering , im not sure you can answer this tho , in my town when a patient is being transported by ambulance to hospital , most of the time they give a patient report over a 2 way radio , then other times they don't give a report and they are been transported , by the way thank you for the tour
Dude your in Iowa two you should go to newton Iowa man and see our fire station though nothing much different as our ambulances we use ford and we have a smaller town but that’s cool that you guys are getting freight liners
Looking at your compartments you seem to have a LOT of empty, unused room inside of them. At many of the compartment (especially the outside compartments) you have to reach quite deep into them to get the equipment out of it. So either you can get more equipment on board, or you get smaller compartments and therefor a larger room inside of the ambulance, or simply get smaller more compact ambulances.
I had to look it up. To be honest there's one reason why I'd hate it: cleaning and especially disinfecting the ambulance. Although we have everything in compartments, the compartments are filled up pretty well, leaving almost no empty room in between. That's the Ambulance I used to work on: th-cam.com/video/pA5jsOZXVp8/w-d-xo.html
I think that the more you have in cupboards the more things get damaged and cannot be used. Same with equipment bags - they get so packet with stuff that things go out of date and they put a strain on zips etc.
of course some things go out of date, it happens with medical equipment just like with medication as well. We still have to have them on board for the rather rare but special emergency scenarios
Actually, not that much of a difference to our German "Rettungswagen". Even though ours are way smaller to fit threw chaotic German traffic and tight streets. Greetings!
so what do you do in the eventuality of a patient who has either fallen from height and is in a sitting position accusing back pain +/- neurologic deficite in the lower limbs or the other common case - car passengers involved in car accidents who lets say have a highly suspected vertebral trauma ? how do you guys immobilize and extract the patient ? I really am curious, we still use it extensively in Romania.
would have killed for one in the early 80's for extraction of casualties from our armored vehicles , had to settle for a half back board . how things have changed , I retired in 1994 keep up the good work
I love the Corpuls C3, but t.b.h I`ve never used something different. It is so intuitive, idiot-save while at the same time having everything a monitor possibly needs and the ability to divide it in three parts. Look it up, mate
It's difficult to do response videos hugely because of the sake of privacy for the patients, or even containment of police investigations in certain situations.
awesome review..... but i have maybe the most asked question....... how do i win against fear of needles/syringes? i've been dealing with this problme my whole lifeeee and never found an answear
Thought about becoming a police officer but life situations are kind of destroying that dream. Looking into becoming a emt/medic. Was born premature and I believe I was kept alive to help others in any way possible. Stay safe out there man.
David DeBergh do it. Let us know how we can help
You forgot to mention what paramedics carry most.....patients!
That's true
is this meant to be a joke?
If of course the patient actually needs transport......... many can be treated on scene.
My instructor told me that ALS stands for Ain't Lifting Shit lol. He loved his job but hated carrying patients!
@@Crazyjay325 Haha! Love that one. I was told by one of our training officers that CPR stood for Check Pockets and Run.

Anxiety attacks? At ISU? Nooooo...
Thanks much for posting this video. Very interesting seeing the contents of a ambulance and little about the equipment.
I'm with you on immobilisation. No efficacy has been shown in studies and it honestly also lacks plausibility. Not moving the patient unnecessarily? Sure. Absolutely plausible. The use of a scoop stretcher to pick up a patient also makes perfect sense. But strapping them to a hard, flat, uncomfortable board is hardly sensible, especially as the restraints will cause normal movements, such as breathing, to have an effect on the spine that it usually would not. Same goes for C collars. Sure, limiting movement to some extent may bring an advantage, but entirely fixing the head will cause every attempted movement to cause a tension force onto the spine which it would not without the collar.
Nice video, this is the first time I know that ambulances carry the bulletproof vest.
Dangerous situations such as domestic violence, shootings, certain mass casualties. EMTs and paramedics always have police secure the scene in those situations but it's an added level of safety.
TheTH-camGuy Don't criticise them, instead be thankful that our UK paramedics don't have to carry them, and try to make sure they never have to =)
@@theyoutubeguy1 yea your right they have bombs
LorJSR We do have stab vests in the UK, they are standard issue for London Ambulance Service. Not too sure about other parts of the UK though.
some medics around me actually carry a concealed handgun. sometimes on shooting calls medics arrive first and the shooter could still be there.

Can u do a video on the mobile intensive care unit you had next to this ambulance u showed here
Shock to the heart and your a medic man you give ambulances a good name
I'm starting to see why ambulances are so expensive

Great overview. Really interesting to see how your trucks are set up (and compare with ours). You guys really do have a progressive agency.
What is the difference between "SMART" triage and "START" triage, my department like most I've ever seen uses "START" Triage
What is this? American version of Ambuchannel 112? If so it should be called Ambuchannel 911 lol.
Great Video :D Greetings from a Switzerland Paramedic :D
You said being in a college town there are a lot of anxiety attacks. What about OD on drugs or alchemy poisoning what do you use for that?
you guys are rockstars!!!
I was just wondering , im not sure you can answer this tho , in my town when a patient is being transported by ambulance to hospital , most of the time they give a patient report over a 2 way radio , then other times they don't give a report and they are been transported , by the way thank you for the tour
Died when you said "Hi-tech ALS section" - Rewatched that part 3 times to make sure I was hearing right.. Nice..
Dude your in Iowa two you should go to newton Iowa man and see our fire station though nothing much different as our ambulances we use ford and we have a smaller town but that’s cool that you guys are getting freight liners
I have a nebulizer (I think that’s how you spell it) and it’s really noisy and it shakes so I like to put my hand on it 😂
Looking at your compartments you seem to have a LOT of empty, unused room inside of them. At many of the compartment (especially the outside compartments) you have to reach quite deep into them to get the equipment out of it.
