I wanted to brag on my patients today. Twice since I have been at the office the last 20 years….. we have had to call an ambulance twice.
The first time was years ago when a patient noticed someone slumped over in the car not responsive. What happened was this person had experienced a huge sugar drop in their blood before coming in for their adjustment and passed out (thankfully this happened after they parked the car and not while the car was in motion).
The car was locked and we couldn’t get in so one of my patient sprung to action and got out a kit he kept in his truck and was able to “jimmy” the door with his special tool and other patient who was a nurse jumped into the car and took care of the patient until the ambulance came.
Today it happened again that we had to call an ambulance. A patient was having a severe asthma attack and was on the verge of passing out and sure enough… one of my patients there was a nurse and she sprung into action preventing a serious situation from getting worse.
While the ambulance was on their way…. this patient was an absolute rockstar taking care of the patient just like she was her momma!!! ❤️
It’s a very good feeling when I know all of us (patients and team members) are looking out for each other and always ready to spring into action!!!!
Also a special thanks to the Eden EMT who got here quick and took fantastic care of the patient!!! We appreciate you guys!!! All first responders too!!!!
