Ambulance Driver Files A Day in the Life | Kelly Grayson
From earlier this shift:
AD:“Howdy, Mercy General, this is AD on Borg Cube 564. We’re five minutes out with Freda Frequent Flier.”
ED Nurse: “And what malady inflicts Freda today?”
AD: “Acute exacerbation of chronic Freda Frequent Flier.”
ED Nurse: “It’s a full-time job, being Freda.”
AD: “The drama of her life requires a cast of thousands. And tonight, you and I get to be extras.”
Anytime an EMT knows a patient’s demographics and medical history as well as they know their own, it’s a solid bet that patient rarely, if ever, actually needed the services of those EMTs.
