🚨 "Why Rapid Assessment Saves Lives in Emergency Care" 🚨 Did you know that rapid assessment in emergency situations can reduce mortality by up to 25%? 🩺 In high-pressure scenarios, every second counts. A quick, accurate evaluation of a patient’s condition can guide immediate interventions that prevent complications and improve outcomes. Here's a key strategy I rely on: 🔑 ABCDE Approach: 1. Airway: Ensure the airway is clear. 2. Breathing: Check for adequate breathing. 3. Circulation: Monitor heart rate and blood pressure. 4. Disability: Assess neurological status. 5. Exposure: Inspect the patient for any hidden injuries. 🏥 This structured approach saves time, minimizes errors, and ensures that no critical signs are overlooked. 💡 What's your go-to emergency assessment method? Let's share and learn from each other. #EmergencyMedicine #CriticalCare #RapidAssessment #NursingSkills #MedicalEducation #PatientSafety

📢 Exciting News from the Obesity Action Coalition 👏 Congress has just introduced a resolution recognizing the need to address and treat obesity as a disease in the United States! As we gear up for Obesity Care Week starting Monday! March 4-8th, 2024 (encompassing World Obesity Day on March 4th), let's take a moment to recognize the importance of this acknowledgment. Obesity is a complex chronic disease influenced by genetics, environment, behavior, and social factors. This resolution acknowledges the urgent need for Congress to step up and treat obesity with the seriousness it deserves. With over 42% of adults and 19% of children in the US living with obesity, it's clear that action is long overdue. By categorizing obesity as a disease and prioritizing evidence-based strategies for prevention and treatment, we can reduce the risk of related health issues and improve the well-being of individuals across the nation. 👏🏼 Thank you to the members of Congress for supporting this significant resolution during #ObesityCareWeek 🙏 urge your legislators to cosponsor and support the final passage of #TROA! https://lnkd.in/eTTCFAmB

Part 3 in the series 🚑🤔 When to use 911 for EMS? Use EMS for Emergencies! This is our ongoing campaign to help inform our community and dispel some common myths. #3 Myth - If the ambulance checks me out for my [abdominal / chest discomfort, neurological symptoms, etc.] everything is fine I don't need to go to the hospital. While we diagnose and treat people in the field, definitive care for patients with more complex conditions is determined with the resources available in the hospital. EMS is about solid education, pattern recognition, using the limited tools we can carry to the patient to identify conditions that need early treatment and determining the most appropriate destination. Core body areas, neurological complaints, etc. require more detailed evaluation than currently available in the field. Abdominal pain is an example of one that is very difficult to diagnose, there are many organs in and around our abdomen. Even if we can identify the most likely cause, most of the time we can't be certain. Here are some abdominal / pelvic related complaints. The ones on the left may be signs of critical illness and a reason to call 911. On the right are more low level illnesses best suited for an office visit, urgent care, or teleheath. #emsforemergencies #benningtonvt #shaftsburyvt #woodfordvt #vermontems #vtems
