This week, a Massachusetts study released findings that 75% of all first responder candidates (EMS and Firefighters) were overweight or obese.  Other stories covered in this episode include a look at a tragic story of an attack on a paramedic in Scotland that prevented care getting to an elderly woman in cardiac arrest.  We also talk about patient refusals in light of actress Natasha Richardson’s death last week following a ski accident and refusal of care or transport while vacationing in Canada. Thanks to Lexi-Comp for sponsoring the show.  Visit www.Lexi.com/mediccast to find out more about their innovative mobile products for first responders at all levels.
