Transcript:
Ambulance incoming to mutual drive from EMS 52 on mutual 86. Honey, Medic 42. Good evening. I'm out here with an 80-year-old female. Typically, this evening is going to be some stroke-like symptoms. Patient was recently notified that she had a death in the family in the last couple hours, so we do have some confounding factors. The patient also has a history of stroke. Denies any ongoing deficits from prior stroke and does seem to have some facial drift on the right side or not just alert speech. She's otherwise alert-oriented, responding mostly appropriately. Final signs should count quite well 120s or 80s pulse rate is 105. SPDFU 100%, blood glucose is 84. I've been talking to her about her recommendation for transport due to possible stroke symptoms. She seems to be in agreement that she'll allow for transport. Probably is unremarkable. Awesome. Thank you so much. Do we need to bring any equipment in aside from a stretcher? Negative. It is going to be some steps down the stairs. You could be a stair chair. We might be able to walk with her. Sir, we're about two miles out, so we'll see you in a second.
