They’re Choking And I Can’t Get Them Out Of The Wheelchair!

Maybe you work with patients that are wheelchair bound and may, at times, be too large or have disabilities that limit your ability to get them out of the wheelchair in a hurry. Especially when they begin to choke during meal time. I received a phone call message regarding this very situation and though we had a great discussion about what to do for the patient over the phone, the person I was talking with thought it would be a great idea for it to be made into a video training. So, here you go Maria! I hope it helps.

Can People In Shock Still Be Conscious? Stages of Shock

In this episode of RoyOnRescue, Roy Shaw, Paramedic answers a question that came in this week that read.

“Is it true that conscious victims can also go into shock?  And if so, is comforting and re-assuring the patient important?”

~R

I thought that these were fair questions and deserved a RoyOnRescue explanation… video style.  So be sure and watch and let me know if you have any further questions.

Best Wishes,

Roy
