An older video (1yr) but should be mandatory viewing for every incoming class of EMT students as it sets expectations as well as advocates for expanded scope of practice, pay and next steps. Thoughts anyone? #emspac #emt#emslife #emslnkd.in/gTFN57yh
Heads up for PTs presenting with hypoglycemic symptoms but traditional interventions such as D50W are temporary and blood sugar drops again to low levels <60 once treatment is competed. lnkd.in/g8iFBkpj
