Ask yourself what the most important thing is that you do in your role. Who defines your standards and expectations? When is "meeting minimums" not enough? US Air splash-down in the Hudson - No only life saving, but an example of a community reacting to save lives. Many lessons here! Is EMS faster for men? We'll look at a study that indicates that women are getting delayed care once EMS is on scene. Psychoactive medications may play a role in cardiac arrest. Anti-psychotic medication, past and present, may have a role in the cause of sudden cardiac arrest. This study states that patients on these medication may be at 50% greater risk of sudden cardiac arrest. This study underscores the need to include a medication history and medication profile on all patient and understand the risk potential of patients medication! Firefighters set fires for $10.00 an hour. I don't know whats worse; the fact that these guys set fires to get work or that they're only paid $10.00/hr to do it. Comments[0] |

A quick look at the impact of a bad economy on retail health care Is antibiotic and antiviral overuse going to lead to increased infections and spread of H5N1? A number of Big Box retail centers including a local supermarket chain is giving away antibiotics...free of charge. But is this a good idea?

Besides, I put a lot of time into it! This week on Mitigation Journal: In the News - SMS and text messaging helps TB patients stay on course. We'll look at this technology as an excellent way of getting any message out to a targeted audience. Also, we'll discuss how traditional print media and network media may be on the way out and the importance of linking up with reliable internet sources of information...like Mitigation Journal My Commentary - This week I sound off about "what happens when nothing happens" and being proactive about planning, training, and keeping our people informed. Our Topics - Domestic Terrorism in Aspen, CO. A recent bombing threat in Aspen meets the definition of domestic terrorism...and the public officials had to make a hard choice to shut down New Years Eve celebrations and keep people out of public areas in order to find the bombs and prevent injury and deaths. Now, they are facing a backlash from business. Y2K for the next generation...lets call it Y2K9. Zune mp3 players around the world stopped working last week due to a programming problem. You'd think we would have thought about that in todays computer industry. The situation makes me think about the 1999-2000 year changes and what we all thought would happen. What would happen today if we faced a Y2K or Y2K9 technology failure? Comments[0] |
