FRIENDS WORKING IN THE AMBULANCE SERVICE - A THREAD:
When you and your crew mate are so in sync not a single word needs to be uttered and you know what the other person needs/is thinking.
When the triage nurse asks “have you done the board yet?” When the patient is still on my stretcher.
The metaphorical position of the ambulance service when ED is full and yet there’s no community provisions available for ANYTHING.
When the voice of the silent majority has spoken, and stood their ground on something and you’re wanting to show support.
My face when a patient INSISTS on showing my his testicle which was the size of a football.
When you were meant to be working with “that guy” and they don’t turn in. (If you don’t know who *that guy* is, it’s probably you.)
Trying to get a stretcher into a patients house without scratching the paint to bits.
When you’ve finally figured out who’s been at your treats in the fridge. #SCANDAL
When someone has had the AUDACITY to cook fish in the microwave and now the mess room smells like arse.
When your usually chill AF crew mate has their buttons pressed and lose their temper.
Well, anyone who works in healthcare atm.
When you a very unexpected response from that member of staff who you don’t think is capable of displaying emotion.
When you’re having a NIGHTMARE with the equipment on the ambulance.
Whenever my crew mate or student isn’t paying attention.
The absolute shite you find hysterical at 0300 on the last shift of your block of nights.
When someone you’re working with starts making words up trying to make themselves sound clever...
