A while back, there was a golf car wreck on one of our village streets. The patient/victim, who was unconscious and lying in the street, was treated and ultimately transported by VPSD. The ambulance and Wildwood Police cleared from the scene, and left behind a massive amount of medical trash lying in the street, to include blood soaked guaze. None of the 1st responders made any effort to collect the trash, even the potentially biohazardous stuff. Solution? I went home, put on latex gloves, and collected and bagged all the trash.
