As we were returning from a call we got toned out for another. This time for a sore person. When we arrived we found our patient laying on the couch. Grant did the patient assessment this time. He found out that the patient had been in a fairly serious accident two days prior and that she had been transported to the ER. The patient stated that she had air bag deployment, she was wearing her seat belt, she was knocked out, and had CT scan and x-rays done. She called us today because she was really sore. We checked out her vitals and everything was within normal limits. I guess when she was released from the hospital the doctor forgot to tell her that she was going to be in pain. Great job doc. She ended up getting transported back to the hospital despite our recommendations to stay home.
