Re: A Good Safety Tip - Pass The Word
John,
This is a very good suggestion, and one I hope many will do. Being a Resporatory Therapist, and working many times in the ER. We were involved in all situations. I can't tell you how many times the "ICE" number in cells phones made it possible to contact family members right from the treatment room.
Usually Parametics don't have the time to call--they are more involved in stabilizing the patient, and will leave the contacting to ER staff.
Tal, your suggestion is a good one too, but be sure to add what meds you are taking and info about allergies. I encourage everyone to do the same.
