You probably don’t think of a Paramedic during a #palliative emergency? Well, now every resident in #BC can get additional support during an encounter with one of @BC_EHS paramedics during a palliative emergency - the way we deliver healthcare has changed. https://t.co/jhcZr55UMT

Another essential pain management tool is coming for all paramedics with @BC_EHS. Injectable acetaminophen will be part of the multimodal pain management for patients within British Columbia. This novel formulary will improve the care paramedics bring to the community.
