## Caption

There are situations, related to patient care and outcome, that call for the firefighter/paramedic to get IV (intravenous) access. These instances may include the management of pain or nausea/vomiting, and instances that are dictated by the patient's condition such as stroke, chest pain, breathing issues, seizures, abdominal pain, blood loss, dizziness, low blood sugar, therapeutic hypothermia and many others. #paramedic #emt #ambulance #firefighter #ems #medicalcare #iv #intravenous #fluids #medic #medical #sick #ill #crew #fluids #treatment #stick #cardiac #hypoglycemia #dizziness #chestpain #community  #stroke #ill have retiree #greg Thx joelcleare
