Stupid 911 Callers

Ok, this isn't particularly funny but I couldn't see another forum suitable for it. I was gritting my teeth a little ...

Well, another drunk and/or psychiatric case. Wonder, why they jailed her. Either she should be left at home after a severe vocal introduction into "real reasons to call 911" or should have taken to a psychatric ward (decision is difficult just on the report, but I smell a bit more behind this behaviour, they may have more evidence for a psych setting on scene).

Anyway, what's this thing with the written statement she should swear on? That's strange. Can someone please explain this procedure to me?

Got a 9-1-1 last night, dispatched for "subject sick". Dispatch gave us the further information.... "56 y/o female subject says her head is stuffed up. Wants to go to the hospital."

We ended up transporting.

Some people I just seriously wonder about.

That stuff is quite typical during flu season ... as ridiculous as it is.
