You find someone hurt or injured or sick and you call 911. This is all fine and dandy, help out your local citizens. But really does it end there, call 911 - tell them the address. Thats it thats all you do, really ??
How about walking over and seeing if they are still alive, if maybe you can do anything to help. Why not give the dispatchers a little more info, like is he breathing?, is he conscious? Have you ever thought that maybe there is something you can do to help while the ambualnce is en route? There are things dispatchers can help you do to help out the pt while help is coming.
I think if you are going to help... then help, really really help. If you don't care to help than dont call. Don't bother trying to show that you are an upstanding citizen if you really do not care.
O and by the way if you are standing right next to someone at a car wreck and they are on the phone with 911 --- why are you calling too? I mean comon people. We need the person sitting next to the injured person or maybe have the injured person call. We don't need 10 different people calling, it really helps more to have the ONE person call that actually knows what is going and and that ONE person who can stay on the phone with us long enough to help the poor injured soul.
JUST RANTING AND RAVING.
Dont even get me started on nursing home nurses..... WOW!!!
We will just say that I will kill my self before I ever let someone put me in one of those homes

really, you have not learned people have no common sense in this town? I have and I am not even out in the public much at all.
Seriously though, sorry today sucks. Hope it gets better. I really think MAST should put on a public service announcement stating common sense in regards to their services. Really, it is worth asking if it is possible at work. They could put on a short commercial, send out letters to particular callers, send out flyers, put up billboards, put ads in papers, etc. They could find someway to help people know what to do in an emergency or when they feel like calling cause they cannot drive themselves. good luck with that.
