When attempting to win a prize it takes two things. Immense concentration by a #dad and a pocket full of quarters. #SpoilerAlert, he didnβt win. #dadlife
I am attending Texas EMS Conference this weekend in Austin, Texas. If you are attending drop a comment down below or send me a message. I am looking forward to connecting with many of you over the next few days!

A peak #BehindTheScenes. Dr. Bryan Kharbanda and I were back at it today filming a few new episodes of #DocTalk for our #EMS partners. With respiratory emergencies surging we are covering BiPAP vs CPAP and influenza.

@s_dowker @WestonD99@gueromedico@HCAHouston We (the EMS Relations Team) built it. There is no PHI collected, we ask for the agency, unit, date, and approximate time they arrived at the ED. When then use this information to identify and confirm the person requesting was listed as part of the crew.
Houston is know for its innovation in #healthcare and the ability to scale solutions across multiple #EMS agencies and #hospital systems. Friday I attended the Texas CARES Cardiac Resuscitation Symposium to learn about ECPR and the plans to deploy mobile #ECMO teams to Houston.
Does your agency utilize a #FSED as a transport destination? They are an excellent option to help an #EMS agency load balance their volume across a region. A common question I am asked is what should we transport to HCA Houston Healthcare ER 24/7?
@WestonD99@gueromedico@HCAHouston We do a mix of sharing de-identified cases like this and offer an online portal for EMS to inquire about any patient transported to any of our facilities or flown by #AIRLIFE. We have found #EMS often inquired about medically complex patients which arenβt STEMI/stroke/trauma.
