Poodle

Started the shift off with an unconcious at the senior center. It turned out to be a five year old who passed out briefly on stage while performing 60's songs with the kindergarten "poodles." She was very cute. She wore a pink skirt with a poodle on it like all the other kindergarten girls. The boys wore dark sunglasses. We waited for her mom to come get her. The flu has been going around their family.

Went to a doctor office for a woman complaining of bricks on her chest for ten days with a history of pnemonia. Her ECG showed a LBBB which she didn't have three years ago, so the coctor gave her a prescription for biaxin and called us to have her taken in for a cardiac evaluation.

We did an old woman from a nursing home with lab values that showed she was having renal failure, a minor accident where a man on a bike was grazed by a car, but never knocked off his bike, complaining of ankle pain, and a transfer.

And that took up eight hours.
