Community Paramedicine / Education. When not doing either of those I can be found in a canoe - ideally not being found. Live in ON but NB is home.

It was a big day for Frontenac Paramedics. @FPSChief Gale Chevalier made her ceremonial last call after more than 30 years of service to the people of Kingston and Frontenac County. Congratulations, Chief! Happy retirement and thank you for your service! #YGK #InFrontenac

@cnuhackett Take care of yourself Sean.

[Jason Kervin @paddlestroke]

@_JaceMullen Interesting device and all, but can we talk about the rug. It looks like the top of a lasagna.

[Jason Kervin @paddlestroke]

@hines_stephen For every 1 min a person in cardiac arrest does not have an AED applied and used they lose a 10% chance of survival. Unless you can open the door and drag them out, shock then extricate. Assuming it’s safe to do so from a provider standpoint.

@medic_m_a_c I first read this as integrated keyboard. Got me thinking what you folks were up to over there.

[Jason Kervin @paddlestroke]

@DuggSteary @CellAED @CormedDx @StevenCBrooks is involved with this product. He can probably provide some insight on its entry into the NA market. It will be an absolute game changer in a number of areas.

AMBULANCE WORKERS.

Forget IV vs oral paracetamol.
Forget supraglottics vs ET tubes.

Who takes their epaulettes off their shirt before putting it in the wash?
& who leaves them on & washes them every time..?
If you leave them on you’re an absolute fruit loop.
