These tools are available in the BLS scope of practice. They are not helpless without their equipment. That's ridiculous. They also could have avoided this mess by doing the right thing for the patient. But that's the solution to so many of these problems isn't it?

We'll see how we did with our prognostications over the coming year. Some of the things we had to say were pretty dire and I kind of hope that at least some of them are off the mark.

"They said that even if someone had led them to her, they didn't have the medical equipment to treat her." It was because of a firefighter not apart of an EMS response that an ALS unit was dispatched. Jackson and Green could have avoided this mess simply by assessing Rennix and relaying "better" information to dispatch. <a href="http://emscontroversies.wordpress.com/2009/12/25/death-of-euthisha-revee-rennix-new-york-post-articles/" rel="nofollow">See a timeline a created using the New York Post articles</a> I hadn’t seen the article you linked to about the Rennix incident. “They said that even if someone had led them to her, they didn’t have the medical equipment to treat her.” It was because of a firefighter not apart of an EMS response that an ALS unit was dispatched.
