EMTs Charged with MURDER - Physician Assistant Reacts 

Truth. I think people just do it for so long that at some point they fear leaving. Everyone seems to start in EMS all starry-eyed.

I have so many questions.. did Mr Moore die en route to the hospital? If not, I assume he was transferred to the hospital’s care, and then he died? Did they keep him in the prone position at the hospital? How did Mr Moore died of asphyxiation if care was transferred. Do not read into this that I codone their action?

That's awful and scary

​@DavidNguyen-vh6nl late reply but he died enroute to the hospital. He was prone and strapped down tightly. He suffacated due to positional asphyxiation. That also means they didnt have him on the monitor. Also a big no no. No EMS worker should ever behave like this. Those are both no no's for patient packaging and transport. As an EMT this is despicable behavior and should have never been tolerated by their supervision or the police. They know, or should know, this is unacceptable.

It's not like people go into the job not caring. They get worn and beaten down and overloaded with stress. I'm not defending any actions here but if you're going to analyze this event you must look at all sides.

@user-cf5fc4kc5k no we don't. Burnout doesn't justify or even explain murder.

@@jdub204 take a second look at my comment. Maybe you don't understand. I never said anything about murder. I said people enter that job with good intentions and get burned out. You seem to be assuming that the woman was always this way and chose to enter the profession despite it running counter to her personality. You missed the point. I'm not writing about her actions I'm writing about her mood.

@user-cf5fc4kc5k it doesn't matter. Burnout sucks but possibly millions of other healthcare employees suffer exactly the same or worse and still don't kill people so your point is entirely irrelevant.

@@L_Train Even an EMS with burnout should not put a patient in a prone position knowing the end result would be death.A bad mood or burnout is no excuse for what they did.

@@ashog1426oh, you're sure? You live in this area? You know her personally? You deal with this on a regular basis? 🤔 ...Don't speak on issues that don't pertain to you.

@@ashog1426 I see you failed to answer any of the questions I asked. Like I said, don't speak on issues concerning race to which you have ZERO experience. Feel free to report me to the board of nursing 🤷🏿‍♂️.

She literally openly displayed it. They both did. You wouldn't know the signs and signals because it doesn't apply to you! Like I said, when you wake up a person of color then you speak on what's racist and what's not. Until then speak on issues that you can relate to and try not to "advise" others on what we should and should not speak on based on your belief of when race is and isn't involved.

I am white and my son is white and he has been treated this way and I have been afraid for his life. It doesn’t matter what color you are some medical professionals are amazing angels and do a wonderful job and some are so horrific you fear for the life of your loved one in their hands. I’m glad this was caught on tape and I pray they go to prison for murder as they did kill him. They get paid to help people. They should be held to an even higher standard than someone else would be. We need to send people to prison when they killed their patients with such horrific misstreatment. We need to make sure that the wonderful people in the medical field stay there and the horrific ones like this are always charged.

@@shannon2740 Hush Karen. Always gotta be one to the rescue screaming "color doesn't matter" 🙄😒

@bunny_yt1556this^^^ I’ve seen too many nurses like this.

He probably was a frequent flyer. Didn't make it right

If that's true, that's crazy!

?? You’re uncle was a hypochondriac? As in, he did not have any actual illness, just the perception of an illness? If the EMT’s performed an assessment, as a former RN, why would you allow your uncle to be transported by ambulance to the ER?

There could always be that one time, when something serious is going on. That is why EMS has to transport people regardless of the number of times they go to the hospital. You are supposed to give a frequent patient the SAME care as you would anyone else.

@@periloustimes7 same care, as in perform an assessment and make proper suggestions. Of course, they are not allowed to refuse transport, but you are not calculating, problems down the line. Clogging up hospital beds, financial concerns from unneeded hospital and ambulance bills. Or even the simple fact, that the Uncle is needlessly taking up limited resources, such as the ambulance, when alternative transportation could be used. But let’s be honest, most people will utilize an ambulance, thinking they will up the long line at the ER waiting room.
