[QUOTE="Benben, post: 1109822, member: 25133"] He did decline it, thats what I am saying. Look, I am not saying you throw him somewhere out of the way and forget about him. I guarntee he had someone with him the entire time, thats just plain common sense. I knew as I was typing my response I'd get idiots like [B]I'[B]ve [/B]gotta-package-for-myself[/B] who will read the first and last line of a post and run off at the mouth about how superior their decesion making is, but some common sense in reviewing the situation needs to be used. I honestly believe that 90% of the population can spot an emergency situation and will call 911 when it presents itself. Its been engrained in our culture for decades. DJKRE8R- Don't second guess yourself, I have no doubt if it had truely been an emergency you would not have hesitated to call 911. You would have noticed the labored breathing or short shallow breaths, veins distended as the heart raced, pronounced unexplained sweating, the disconected skeletal movements. You would have looked into his eyes and seen a blown pupil, or nystagmus that would not have been there before. Removing the patient from the enviroment and observing him was the prudent action from what I can tell. Don't sell yourself short, you did well. Getting someone who can make medical decisions for him involved was smart. This was a medical event. And it was so difficult the doctors at the ER could not figure it out even after running a battery of tests in a very controlled enviroment. If altered mental process' warrented a 911 call everytime, we'd never have a single truck dispatched from any UPS center [U][B]EVER![/B][/U] I know what you felt, I have been through it more than once. [B]DO NOT SECOND GUESS YOURSELF! [/B]"This is TOTAL BS... What the H-LL is wrong with UPS management????? I would file a lawsuit against that supervisor and UPS that same day if it were me or a member of my family." And you'd do it by yourself because every "Dewy-Cheat'em-and-How" Law firm would laugh your ass right out of the office. [/QUOTE]
