Better Lifting for Better Care
Anyone who has been to a national EMS conference in the last few years has probably seen Rick Binder in the exhibit hall. If that name is not familiar, you may be more likely to remember his life-size teddy bear wearing a vinyl vest surrounded with brightly colored handles. While we are friends now, I […]
More Reasons to Support Dynamic Deployment
The “Leverage Real-Time Data for Improved Ambulance Response Times” article that Zoll posted on their blog site did a good job of explaining response times and even the benefits of System Status Management (SSM) planning to the patient. But there is still more to the story that we have learned over the years since Jack […]

Does ‘Narcan’ Deserve Any Debate?
While naloxone (marketed under various trademarks including Narcan) is not a new drug, it has enjoyed some incredible news coverage recently as the “safe antidote” for opioid abuse that can bring an overdose victim back “from the dead” simply and safely with “no side effects.” The surge in its popularity is undoubtedly fueled by a growing problem of opioid drug abuse, especially in the […]
MCIs and “The Downwind Walk”
I never really considered doing book reviews on this blog or writing about specific horrific incidents either, but I finished reading “The Downwind Walk: A USAR Paramedic’s Experience after the Terrorist Attacks on September 11, 2001†by Steve Kanarian just hours before the shots rang out at a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado. Let me […]

Lights and Sirens and Safety
I like how you explain that the use of lights and sirens is supposed to clear traffic by warning drivers or pedestrians that a public safety vehicle is approaching in emergency mode. As far as I remember, when I was a child and hear a siren sound, I was aware that something bad happened. Thanks…

System Status Management (SSM)
Wow... I would have thought that by now, the impact on patient outcomes would have been a part of the discussion. Look, the entire purpose of SSM is to run a "more efficient" operation, and still meet some arbitrary maximum response time threshold with a certain degree of reliability. What nobody seems to talk about…
