      Agreed. I’m an EMT and I do my best to make a point of talking to the patient instead of about them. Even if I’m not sure they are coherent, simple reassurance and a friendly voice goes a long way I’d like to think.

    Such a lovely woman! I was hospitalized after having a blockage for seven days. They x rayed me and IMMEDIATELY gave me morphine. I could not even wrap my head around that being just a "side effect" of the greater pain she is going through. She has such a huge tolerance! Such grace and friendliness when under such agony. I hope she has an easy passing; Gods know she deserves it. And thanks to the medical personnel who gave her pain meds to use when she felt she had had enough. That is such a kindness.

      Many people call for an ambulance when one isn’t needed. That’s what drives the cost up. I used to work in a hospital billing office and so many people would call just for a cough or a sprain. A lot of people want to go to the ER because they don’t want to have to wait in one of the many Urgent Care’s or Clinics. This abuses the system and also makes costs for up for those who really need an ambulance.

      I work as an emt and it depends, some pain meds can making other conditions worse. We can see what’s going on inside your body, especially in severe trauma and medical patients. So usually only necessary meds are given, only the hospital have the tools to make sure that any meds given that the side effects don’t make conditions worse. Every state is different as far protocols, my advice to check with your local state. Ask any paramedics you know in your area when they can and can not give pain meds.

      I can’t believe the size/gauge of needles they use for that “sharp scratch.” They are huge! So glad in the US, my chart says to use a butterfly needle on me (designed for children & tiny). And if I’m in a situation, where I see a larger needle heading my way I can say, “no you don’t!!!! Butterfly only, thank you very much!”

    We here in the U.S. does not have all these kind of medical care like London, England and the surrounding areas. Their EMT'S do more for their patients then we do.
    I really think that our EMT'S should have more training in this field of
    medicine.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LISTENING AND GOD BLESS TO ALL WHO CARE ABOUT TAKING CARE OF PATIENTS AND THEIR WELL BEING AND WE DO APPRECIATE
    EVERYTHING YOU DO FOR US.

    I was at the day hospital, when a guy sat next to me, who was clearly very ill. This was just after covid, so I moved away from him. Hours later the nurse came to find him because he was sitting in the wrong section. Turned out he was stabbed and bleeding internally, so it wasn't obvious. I felt bad, but he wasn't talking so we couldn't have known, or helped him. Some people would rather lose their lives, than to be a problem for others.
