wtf, it's 2:45am on a fucking sunday night (well, technically, monday morning)

all i've heard over locution is like 2 respiratory distress calls... where the fuck are all these people coming from?

rex is on yellow... but that doesn't surprise me at all... i'd also be willing to bet they weren't anywhere near capacity

p.s. this is all public information in case anyone was planning on bitching me out

either get some sort of scanner that will support the 800mhz vipir stuff (not sure if such a thing exists) or listen on the vhf simulcast used for the minitors, 156.225mhz

I wish I was still ems. but that doesn't mean I have to make a stupid fucking thread about it.

2/18/2008 3:14:13 AM

i'm glad to hear that

fortunately this thread was not made with that purpose

2/18/2008 3:16:12 AM

Hey, evan... what's a code blue?

2/18/2008 8:41:29 AM

2/18/2008 8:44:01 AM

lawl

i'd rather have a code blue than a code black

code black = bomb threat


blue = cardiac/respiratory arrest

2/18/2008 10:42:13 AM

CARDIAC PACK

2/18/2008 10:55:20 AM

ahahaha

2/18/2008 10:55:57 AM

So what the difference between a "cardiac" call and a "code blue" call?

cardiac would be chest pains, etc while breathing and having a pulse

code blue would be not breathing no pulse, aka cardiac (or respiratory) arrest.
