I'm a aux nurse/care assistant for a nursing agency & it's always embarrassing to hear about carers running off for no apparent reason. We would normally wait until the paramedics are leaving the scene before we leave. The only time I’ve left before you guys was about 4 months ago, I trained as a St Andrews medic, so we were going to a clients house to cover for his regular homecare, we arrived & he’d gotten up, tripped & clocked his head on the radiator, split his scalp from about an inch above his eye, ko’d himself, and was fitting, we cleaned him up & our supervisor phoned for an ambo. He came to, gcs’d him as an 11, EMT’s arrived, he was alert & improving, we’d dressed his head, started to do a handover, just going into what had happened, what we’d done & he told me to f**k off & stop pretending I knew what I was doing. So it works both ways, proper training & a little respect goes a long way. :) Keep up the good work, and congrats with the knee, just had mine reconstructed.
