thats kinda fucked up man. Wouldnt you be the first to respond from a call like that anyway?
My wife is an RN, 4 years sofar. She saved someone’s life at a bar when they fell down drunk, hit their head on the bar top, passed out and stopped breathing. She did CPR and controlled the bleeding on his head and brought him back. If she wasnt there, or was there a few minutes later the dude would be dead. Everyone else just stood and watched, didnt do shit. She helped stabilize someone that was in a car accident and broke their femur at my friends camp on labor day a few years back. Thankfully we also had 3 firemen and another nurse there too, because there was also an infant in the other car and 2 small children to keep them calm and make sure they wernt hurt too. Thsi past Black friday some old man slipped and fell at Target and hit his head on the curb, split him wide open and was in shock bleeding all over. Once again nobody helped just looked around dumbfounded and she rushed over and assisted him until the amberlamps came.
IRC she took an oath when she got her license. Did you?
Sorry,should have mentioned it was when I was in the emt program, not an actual emt at the time. once I became certified I was legally obligated to stop and help at any scene.
