Did we go on ambulance diversion? Naw. I was triaging the ambulances that were threading their way through the crowd of evacuated patients. We even were intubating one guy in the trauma room. Nice.

Cool, kinda like the postal service....'neither rain, snow, fire, dead of night or dead of patient, will stop us from our appointed rounds....'
I thought RACE stood for "Run
Away to the Closest Exit".
Diversion is the newest dirty word.
Safety is secondary.
I actually had a monitor printer overheat and start smoking because I was printing a patient's long string of ectopy... luckily it was late at night, we were fairly light census-wise, and it was a simple matter of unplugging it, and moving down a bed...
Sounds like a fun time to have, espeically during a busy time!
It's supposed to be baptism by fire - not intubation by fire. If the laryngoscope bulb burns out, a burning light fixture might provide some nice ambient lighting as a substitute. :-)
