Handles for People: Revisiting the Montana Blanket Roll
People in bathtubs are slippery and can be frustrating to handle safely and with good body mechanics. The Montana Blanket Roll is a simple, quick answer.
Life-Saver: Is that EMS term for real?
How do we know we're saving lives? Sometimes evidence-based medicine is simply cards and letters from former patients telling you so.
Varmints: What's going on back there?
An extra rearview mirror allows you to see not only what's going on behind your ambulance, but what's going on in the back of it, which is important when you get a patient who has no regard for your safety.
Bubbles: Air-proofing your IV lines
Bubbles form when you spike an IV bag and allow the fluid to splash down into the open end of that line. Bubbles will keep forming all day, until you eliminate the source.
