Busy Day at Medic 6

I went to bed last night around 03:00 hours and was rocked out of bed around 06:45 hours when the pager went off for a cardiac arrest in Halifax Township. Since it was so close to 07:00 hours and me having to leave for work, I decided not to go on the call. I fell back asleep and woke up at 07:00 hours when my alarm went off. I got out of bed and got dressed and then ate breakfast and read the comics. I left the house around 07:36 hours and headed up to Eville for my 12 hour day shift at Medic 6. I got there and clocked in. Wendy and Wertz were already there when I got there. I went inside and did a rig check on 6-7 which was sitting out back as Capt. Carl and Ron were out on a call with 6-3. Once they got back I did a rig check on 6-3 and then sat down to watch some TV. I then ran Wertz up to Koppy's so he could get something to eat for lunch. When we got back I then ate my lunch and then Steve asked me to help him with year to date stats for the townships and boroughs that we serve. The tones then went off around 12:38 hours for an assult victim at Wal-Mart. Me and Scott got in 6-3 and off we went. It ended up not being an assult victim, but was a traumatic injury. Some dumbass decided to race his friend on foot in the parking lot of Wal-Mart for $5.00. When the guy got to the building, he thought he had slowed down enough and put his hands on the plate glass window. Well needless to say, he went head first through the window and landed inside the store. We bandaged him up and ran him down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed, I drove back. On the way back me and Wertz decided on meatball subs for dinner. So we first stopped at Dollar General so he could get some drain cleaner for the sink in the men's bunkroom as it was running slow. We then ran up to Wal-Mart and picked up a bag of frozen meatballs, buns, cheese, and sauce. We then stopped at Shell to get fuel and I picked up some chocolate milk. As we were leaving Shell the tones went off for a nose bleed in Gratz Borough. We thought the Lykens crew was back, so we headed back to the station. We got there and started putting out stuff away when Tindel called Wertz and said they were not back in the area yet, so we ended up taking it. We ran up there and got the lady loaded up and we ended up taking her to Lebanon Good Sam Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back over Gold Mine. We got back to the station and people were starting to arrive for the staff meeting. Wertz got the crock pot out to start making the meatball and I sat down to start typing my first chart, when the tones went off for a hand injury in Washington Township. I had Tommy close out the computer while me and Wertz got back in 6-3 and took off. It ended up being some 7 year old kid being bit by a hamster and the bleeding was not stopping. We got on the scene and bandaged the wound and got a refusal. We then headed back to the station. Wertz went to work the crock pot and he got pissed and left in the squad and ran up to Wal-Mart and bought a new crock pot and brought it back. He then put some meatball in the microwave for us. He almost got them done when the tones went off for a chocking in Millersburg Borough. We got back in 6-3 and took off towards Millersburg. We got down there and it ended up being a refusal. We then headed back to the station. We finally were able to eat dinner when we got back. I had two meatball subs. I then sat down to start doing my charts. The night shift (the night EMT really) wanted to go out to eat, so Wertz and his EMT, and Tim and Tommy ran up to Ashley's pizza to get something to eat. I told them I was staying behind to work on my charts. Tim had made the joke that since it was really storming out that we were going to lose power soon at the station. I told him it had better wait until I was done with my three charts. I heard the pole fire that Carsonville had and heard that our Engine and Tanker were dispatched to it. I was talking to Bill on my cell phone and had just finished typing the narrative for it, when the power went off and I lost the whole cart. I was pissed. I found a flashlight in the station and went in and sat down in the dayroom and continued to talk to Bill. After about 30 minutes, the power came back on and I was able to do my three charts. I finally clocked out at 22:40 hours and headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and am soon going to bed as I am tired.
