    Prehospital Chemical Restraint

    So, police aren't medically in charge of a patient - the paramedics and their medical control/directors are. Police are in control of the threat and security side of the care delivered, as well as preservation of evidence or direct supervision if the person is arrested. The paramedics also...

    Police Officers doing good things

    I know...I well remember a dude strapped to a litter with every triangular bandage and field dressing in the ambulance holding him down, showing up at our field hospital one day in 1987...pre us having meds in the vehicle...again why police are trained/paid to use physical force to restrain...

    Police Officers doing good things

    That's what police are for and why paramedics in many jurisdictions have access to haloperidol, olanzapine and lorazepam for im/iv injection and sublingual administration for the olanzapine. Yes, we were trained to have an upside down stretcher in the racks over potential psych patients on the...

    Police Officers doing good things

    Yes indeed...now if we could just get program directors and legal to authorize tranq guns in the ED's - have loads of B52's, Zyprexa and/or high dose Ketamine for stand off shots to keep too many people getting hurt/involved. Downside is the poor optics of us schwacking someone in the ED with...

    British Military Current Events

    One would think in a free society that if one were going to be prosecuted for something like that, there'd be a decent forensic trail of some sort, but why let legality and logic get in the way of optics and politics...but I get that. Like a Borderline Personality blaming everyone else but...

    British Military Current Events

    Serious question here - if they're going to lay the blame on a singular soldier for that, do they have actual forensic evidence of his weapon being the culprit , like matched projectiles to his properly identified and sequestered weapon or they just doing a blanket thing based on Dead Man's...

    Medical questionnaire confusion

    My take - if it is worded "Have you ever been treated for/been told you had/been worked up for conditions 'x, y, z...?" then answer honestly - a note should be taken as to why you checked off what you checked off and a note for your primary care provider will be given to sort it out for you...
