Well,
00:01
sir, can I get a 900 unit dispatch near LaFleur Road? I've got a 68-year-old female that's having diabetic problems.
00:15
What, let's go holiday?
00:21
She has taken her medicine,
00:24
like usual.
00:26
She contacted me probably about an hour ago.
00:30
and her sugar was 238.
00:35
I told her to go ahead and take another one of her medicines,
00:38
and since then it has climbed up to 344, so it's going in the opposite direction.
00:45
She's real weak, can't walk.
00:48
A friend of hers just tried to get her in a car to take her to the ER, but she doesn't have the strength on her legs to walk.
00:58
She said she was how old and is there any altered mental status with her?
01:05
It is a 68-year-old female, not necessarily altered but she does have slurred speech.
01:18
Copy, we'll get her headed away.
01:22
Copy that, thank you.
01:24
I don't have any of my equipment with me to get any vitals for her, so if they need to contact me, then they can just contact me on the First Fundertown.
01:35
Okay.
