Never acceptable.
A paramedic from a neighbouring paramedic service who was in Kingston to assist for #QueensU #HOCO was assaulted by a reveller last weekend. There is never an excuse or reason for violence or aggression against Paramedics. #YGK #QueensU @KingstonPolice @KingstonHSC
EnviroScan time: are any Canadian PCP using McGill forceps for FBA, using Valsalva Maneuvers, or giving TXA or Map Sulphate? #Paramedic @McNallyProject @PAC_Paramedic
2nd time our local MP @mferreriptbokaw doesn’t understand the difference between CATSA/Ministry of Transport and CBSA/Ministry of Public Safety. One error is acceptable, two is laziness/ignorance.
How many Canadians need to explain how bad the situation is? Why isn’t this Government listening? Your “task force” with the people who created the problem is not going to solve it, and get rid of arrive can already!!!

Sounds great until one of your shift mates snores like a freight train!!
Ensuring the crews have the right facilities to rest is crucial in us delivering helicopter cover 24/7. Between taskings, crews can rest in state-of-the-art Kotobuki sleep capsules, which allow them to control lighting and sound when resting between night missions.

Ok #paramedic twitter. I’m looking for your favourite references and manuals for prehospital documentation. Prefer scholarly material, but I’m open to gray literature and different ideas and practices. @McNallyProject
