The homeless are not "urban outdoorsman" nor is endotracheal intubation referred to as "a PVC challenge".

#32 If the patient is sitting up and talking to you, then the patient is not in V-Fib, no matter what the monitor says.
#33 Full spinal precautions were custom made for obnoxious drunks. So were NPAs.
#34 Patients that crash in separate vehicles should be transported in separate vehicles.
#35 You are bound to get a call either during dinner, while you are on the can, or at 02:00 in the middle of a great
dream.
I have a list of over 200 rules a friend sent me. Those were a few of my favorites.
