A 🧵 1) This morning a long time friend and paramedic went into cardiac arrest while at Airdrie UCC. UCC calls 911 for EMS support for these events. #ableg #abhealth #ahs #ems #ahsems
2) There were no available ambulances in Airdrie to respond to our brother. The responding units came from Calgary. UCC calls us for these events because we are more familiar with running cardiac arrests. That’s why they have paramedics like him working there during the nights
3) It has finally happened. A colleague, a mentor, and a brother has fallen and there wasn’t one of his own close enough to help. We have been sounding the alarm about the EMS system for years, and now its inadequacies may have prevented us from saving our own
4) @dsandbeck @AHS_media He was one of our best. I want you to be damn sure you know that. And your limp dick management of our services may have impacted his survival. Fuck you.
Since this is gaining a lot of traction and I’m not aware of anything set up for the family yet please consider donating to the ems foundation
