Real things I’ve seen as a Paramedic. Who knew washing dishes could be so risky #dishes #ems #hand

So THIS is why they teach how to “de-escalate” a situation!

Reminder, don't hold the edge. Hold the flat.

Jason realising this is the start of someone's villain arc and told the victim to run.

That is something we NEED an update on.

The smell of blood activated the kill switch on the other person😂😅

Dispatch, I've got a man with a deep cut on his hand and a roommate who wants to make it worse, can we get some police intervention here?

Finally, a copying paper background fact that I actually KNEW 😂 Good ole Vanillin.

Sometimes I swear your fun fact papers are more frightening than the medical calls themselves haha

It's always a contest to see whether Jason's stories or his "fun facts" will be more disturbing, and oh boy is the competition fierce in this one.

My father did something like this. My mom was washing a knife and he decided to startle her, she accidently cut his arm, luckily it wasn't deep.

It is POLITE to hold the dangerous part of something to hand it to someone, just remember to hold the BLUNT edge in your hand

This is why , in Culinary Arts classes, we're told to put the knife down so the other person can take it and NEVER hand it directly to them Also if you're carrying a knife DO IT POINT DOWN AND AT YOUR SIDE RATHER THAN IN FRONT OF YOU Less accidents like this happen that way

Considering how many times i had to collect several severed digits after someone did something stupid, this is surprisingly calm.

“I need an ambulance… and a hazmat team.”

" Dispatch, send PD, scene not safe."

Pain and anger. the worst possible combo.

As someone who is about to go into firefighting I can’t wait to have my fair share of crazy stories like you

Where's the *FRICKIN* knife **WHEEZE**

Who holds the blade by the sharp side. Proper knife etiquette is to hand them the handle, but you're never supposed to touch the sharp side.

One time, a colleague tried to hand me a knife to wash in the sink. She gave it to me by reaching under my arm, blade up, with no warning. I still have the scar, and the resentment.
