Medic, Love my job, putting myself out there. Spending time with friends and family is the best. Music to my ears and the outdoor just soothes the inner me!

MVC. Taxi hit a concrete barrier. N2, elevated freeway. 9 pts with moderate to serious injuries. #rescue @WCLiveTraffic ArriveAlive.co.za @Netcare911_sa @ER24EMS @cptfrs @wcghwems
@EWNTraffic .. Koeberg rd direction Tableview infront of Millerton Police station was closed yesterday afternoon due to a sink hole. Unsure if that has been fixed. Could cause major delays .. worth getting some feedback on that and getting it out there. @CityofCT

Friends with hospitals using resusable plastic masks.. please send photos of your cleaning/drying stations. Or protocols. Thanks! #covid4MDs
Normally I wear my uniform with pride, I still do. I am front line medic because I love what I do, making or trying to make a difference. A colleague of mine brought something to my attention during this #Covid19inSA pandemic. A shop refusing him to enter because of his uniform
@PresidencyZA @DrZweliMkhize just because we wear the uniform and it's most probably cleaner than most of the public that wear their so called appropriate mask and oh wait gloves they use to touch everything. Will this be the way all essential staff is treated or just medics?

Also advocates Ringers rather than Saline if significant volumes needed (Chloride accumulation) and earlier inotropes with the fluids. Choice: Adrenaline (even peripherally) not dopamine (Paeds has caught up @docmikewells!)
