So, did she stop breathing and/ or became unresponsive just prior to arrival or just as unloading her? What was her original chief complaint, SOB, general weakness, hip pain, all the above? If she was tachypneic, what was the rate and quality of her respirations? What were her changes to make the paramedic think it had became an emergency?
IV may have been called for by the paramedic earlier, but being the Sr., that was his call.
Just a side note, I could be wrong, but, is this Shane?
