Three for one?

Monday, 14 December 2009 15:13

Have you, as an EMS professional, ever been sent out in extremely hazardous weather to transfer a patient from one hospital to another? I have. Many times hospital staff know that the road/weather conditions are dangerous but they feel that it is still necessary to send these patients out. Good call or bad? Do we really want to risk the lives of three people, to take 1 patient that may or may not need to go?
