Paul, no people are not treated for cardiac after in the trauma room at Kent. The trauma room is used for trauma. There are 2 cardiac rooms next to the trauma room. One that's well equipped for pedi and the other that is equipped for adult. It would be very bad for you if you did not get high-quality CPR, uninterrupted as soon as possible along with IV or I/O epinephrine and other recessive cardiac drugs that you will get from a Paramedic or cardiac, defibrillation and all the other things that we do in the field. We can do more than a nurse can as paramedics and the doctors are going to give orders for exactly the same stuff we were going to do it's just now you got it delayed. if we weren't so worried about bringing you to the truck as fast as possible you would've got the same medications and the good CPR EARLIER.. that's huge because your body starts to literally self-destruct after just a few minutes without those things. Paul I can assure you as a professional who has been in this field for many years that it is without a doubt in your best interest to have highly trained and qualified paramedics and cardiacs working on you right where you went down as rapidly as possible. If it was my family member on the ground and I saw them loading them up and taking away right away I would not be happy because I know how important it is to get that blood circulating with oxygen and get ACLS drugs in their system. Everything that paramedics and cardiacs are going to do are all the same things that the physician will do at the hospital.
