A young patient requests ems after having a slew of symptoms that seem to not fit together. Or do they? The ems crew faces challenges in history taking, as well as really understanding what this group of seemingly unconnected symptoms have in common to paint the final picture.

In today's episode of the #medicmaterialspodcast we discuss the science behind the changes to your brain that chronic high levels of stress create. Many of our thoughts have now changed that this is not an individual provider problem but we must now look at the EMS culture to blame for burnt out providers, salty providers and over half of the EMS population with Post Traumatic Stress.

  Let’s break down the RAAS system! It’s super simple and easy to understand! So the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system is a complex pathway and regulatory system, that responds to decreased pressure and volume within the body. This system is important for blood pressure management but can be altered in chronic medical conditions. This system involves multiple organs and enzymes including the kidneys, liver, lungs, and heart.    I recommend taking a look below at this nephron to familiarize yourself with renal vocabulary.    SUBSCRIBE AND LEAVE A RATING ON ITUNES!!!

Join Andrew Shannon, Public Information Officer, of this amazing organization as we speak about the hard topics of responder suicide, prevention, and education.The Code Green Campaign was started in March of 2014 after a group of EMS professionals noticed the alarming rate of suicide in EMS. The Code Green Campaign is a first responder oriented mental health advocacy and education organization. Also known as Code Green, they serve all types of first responders, including firefighters, EMTs, paramedics, dispatchers, police, corrections, air medical, and search & rescue. The name comes from the color for mental health awareness (green) and "code alerts" that EMS uses to designate an emergency patient. For example, if someone is having a stroke or heart attack that needs rapid intervention, first responders will tell the hospital the patient is having a "code stroke" or a "code STEMI." The idea is that Code Green is calling a code alert on the mental health of first responders.For more information: http://www.codegreencampaign.orgFacebook: https://facebook.com/thecodegreencampaign--Find out more at http://rescuetherescuer.com--Show sponsors: The Addictions Academy - The Nation’s Leading Accredited Addiction Treatment Services, Recovery/Sober Coaching & Intervention Training Academy: https://theaddictionsacademy.com/Hassle-Free Books - You have a message to share, it shouldn't be so difficult to get it out to the world.

Ep #11 @CodeGreenEMS - Mental Health & MOS Suicide Prevention   For more of the Code Green Campaign, visit: http://codegreencampaign.org/   President: Ann Marie Farina Ann Marie is one of the founders of Code Green and is the driving force behind the campaign. Ann Marie helped develop the idea for Code Green after the suicide of a coworker in March of 2014. One thing lead to another, and Code Green was born. Ann Marie was born and raised in rural Alaska to a firefighting family and has been in EMS since 2003. She attended the University of Alaska Fairbanks where she obtained her Paramedic certification in 2006. While in Alaska she worked as a rural transport EMT, a wildland fire medic, an oilfield medic, and a volunteer firefighter. Since 2009 Ann Marie has worked as a full time field Paramedic in Spokane, WA for the primary 911 transport agency. She also worked part time for EMSconnect, writing entertaining and sometimes slightly inappropriate continuing education for EMS providers. In addition to being the President of the board, Ann Marie serves Code Green as the treasurer, graphic designer, website admin, Facebook admin, and general jack-of-all trades. She also serves on the EMS1 Editorial Advisory Board. If she had free time she would spend it at the gym and using her camera for something besides a paperweight. Secretary: Fiona Campbell Fiona has been in public safety for 15 years, initially as a volunteer firefighter/EMT in 2000 before transitioning to her current position as a paramedic for Austin-Travis County EMS in 2012, where she is on the department Honor Guard and peer support team. She’s the other main admin of the Code Green Facebook page, and is our primary statistics person. She’s also the southern half of our instructor base for our mental wellness course. Fiona is also the reason coffee was invented, and no, you can’t have her cup. It’s hers. Don’t even ask. Her other passions include mentoring and educating future EMS providers – done via her department’s Explorer Post – photography, and editing fiction novels. She is owned by several rather over-sized Maine Coon cats and a large pack of dogs, all of whom think she spends too much time on the computer and not enough time paying attention to them.     Follow us on Twitter: www.twitter.com/EMS_Nation Like us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/prehospitalnation   Wishing Everyone a safe tour! ~Faizan H. Arshad, MD @emscritcare www.emsnation.org
