Happy, Healthy Hemet

Thankfully, the people of Hemet have been driving safely and taking care of themselves. Wouldn't it be nice if we didn't need paramedics at all? My paramedic's calls lately have consisted of a few inter-facility transports, some fainting episodes, a frequent flyer looking for drugs, and a young man who called the paramedics because of a sharp pain he felt in his abdomen. He got the sharp pain after laughing really, really hard. My paramedic did have a first - he started an iv in the back of a moving ambulance.
