Heat Exhaustion
Went to bed last night around 02:30 hours and got up this morning around 10:00 hours. Got changed and ate breakfast, read the paper, and watched a little tv. Around 11:30 hours I got on the PS2. I made lunch around 01:05 hours and brought it back to the officer to eat while I played on the PS2. I got to eat maybe 6 chips when the pager went off for an accident with injuries in Jackson Township. I went over to my room and put my boots on. After I had finished tying my right boot, I heard Fisherville's house siren go off. After I got my other boot on I grabbed my job sweat and jumped in my car and headed off to Dohn's house. While heading out I tried to get ahold of either Dohn or Carol to see if they wanted to pick me up in Fisherville, but I could not get a hold of them. I got to Dohn's house and pulled in behind Bill. Me, Bill and Dohn, jumped in the unit and off we went. I left the siren on for the whole duration of the trip to the scene. When we came into the square of Fisherville, Engine 216 had just stopped at the stop sign, waiting to pull out. We went flying by them and they pulled out behind us. While enroute to the scene county advised us that we had one Pt. with head trauma. With that information we had county check on the status of Life Lion. Once we arrived on the scene and the guys from Rescue 21 had already popped the driver's side door open and had her on a backboard. Dohn turned the unit around and they strapped her to the board and I got infomation from the guys off of Rescue 21. I placed Medic 81 in service as they were not need and after PSP talked to the young lady, we headed off to Harrisburg. We stopped and picked up Carol at her house and she got on and went along down with us since the girl was 17. Got down to Harrisburg Hospital and waited about 30 minutes for a bed to open up for us. Got what we needed down there and headed on home. Dohn took us back out to his house and me and Bill picked up our vehicle's, and then we both headed back into the "Barn". Logged my time in and talked with Bill for a little bit and then I headed home. Once home I changed and had my lunch, which was now dinner while I played on the PS2. Got off and took a shower. Getting ready to hit the old emal and surf the net. Will be on late tonight so give a buzz if you want to talk.
