SWIL EMS

⏰🏥 Swift stroke care hinges on ER-EMS teamwork! Cutting door-to-needle time demands united efforts. Collaboration equals faster, effective treatment. 🧠💪 #StrokeCare #Teamwork #EREMS

🚑⚙️ Mechanical ventilation vs. manual: A life-saving debate in EMS. Consistency, adaptability, reduced fatigue – mechanical ventilation brings precision to the forefront. Embracing technology for better outcomes! 💨🩺 #EMS #MechanicalVentilation #Innovation

🩺 In the world of emergency medicine, distal femur intraosseous (IO) access shines as a vital technique. 🦴 Swift and effective, it's a game-changer for delivering life-saving treatments when traditional IV access is a challenge. Saving lives, one insertion at a time. 💉🚑 #EMS

🫁 When breathing gets tough, EMS turns to BiPAP for a helping hand. Non-invasive ventilation at its finest, BiPAP eases respiratory distress by delivering pressurized air. Swift relief without the intubation hassle! 🚑💨 #EMS #RespiratorySupport #BiPAP

🩸 Unstoppable nosebleeds meet their match in EMS! Tranexamic Acid (TXA) shines as a lifesaver, controlling bleeding by promoting clotting. When seconds count, TXA stops the flow. Ready to halt nosebleeds in their tracks! 🚑💉 #EMS #Nosebleed #TranexamicAcid

🚑 Swift intervention matters in respiratory distress! Magnesium sulfate can be a game-changer in EMS. Its bronchodilator properties help relax airways, easing breathing difficulties. When every breath counts, magnesium sulfate steps up! 💨💪 #EMS #RespiratoryCare #MagSulfate

📋Documenting isn't just notes—it's a roadmap to better patient outcomes! Clear records = informed decisions and smoother care transitions. Let's enhance patient care through meticulous documentation! 💙🌟 #DocumentationMatters #BetterPatientOutcomes 🏥🩺

"💪🚑 Embracing the challenges of the EMS field with unwavering determination is what defines us as resilient first responders. From life-saving moments to tough calls, we stand strong, adapt, and overcome. Our commitment to serving our communities never wavers. #EMSResilience

Congratulations to Dr. Joe Finney for completing a combined/accelerated PEM and EMS Fellowship! He has had a big positive impact on prehospital care for sick and injured children in our region. Glad he will be sticking around! @FinneyEMS_PEM

Counting down the days to my presentation at @NAEMSP #NAEMSP23 Discussing a topic I am passionate about, having struggled more than once... With a final take-away from the always brilliant Dr John Hinds...

@rtracy13 Congratulations, Dr. Tracy!

Super excited to hit the ground running!

R&D is the phrase of the season Please Rip off and Duplicate anything you’d like from the #COVID19 Dropbox we’ve created. Don’t reinvent the wheel. dropbox.com/sh/gimutrrl5cy…

Great work by @DitchDoc14 et al. with data suggesting 400 mcg nitroglycerin slow IV safely and rapidly improves BP and O2 saturation in patients with SCAPE in the prehospital setting.

Choose the right path of care during this crisis

Effective Immediately: To reduce risk and prevent the spread of novel coronavirus COVID-19, Memorial Hospital and Memorial Hospital East are no longer allowing visitors to the hospital and entrances have been restricted. For more information mymemorialnetwork.com/news/hospital-…

Paul Hinchey on the EMS Medical Director as the Chief Medical Officer Having a car and responding in the field is important. However, is direct patient care really the role of the EMS medical director? The role of the medical director should be a leader! #NAEMSP2020

Rachel Stemerman on applications of data visualization. Healthcare data just keeps rising. How do we process and visualize this amount of information? Human brain can only process 5 numbers at one time. Confused? Don’t blame the data! Blame the design! #NAEMSP2020

Great information calling for more frequent education.
