Podcasts about emergency responders

In this second episode of their comprehensive healthcare planning series, Absolute Trust Talk hosts Kirsten Howe and Ariana Flynn tackle the critical medical orders that work alongside your legal documents: DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) orders and POLST (Physician Orders for Life Sustaining Treatment) forms. Unlike the legal documents discussed in Part 1, these are doctors' orders that emergency responders must follow—but only if they can see them. The attorneys reveal the shocking legal reality that paramedics are required to perform CPR on anyone they find unconscious unless they have a valid DNR order in hand. They explain why POLST forms are printed on hot pink paper (it's a genius design for emergency visibility), where to keep these life-saving documents so they're accessible when seconds count, and why you need both medical orders AND legal documents working together. This episode could save your life by ensuring your emergency medical wishes are honored when you can't speak for yourself.   Time-stamped Show Notes: 0:00 Introduction 1:15 DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) explained - emergency medical protective orders for EMS 2:33 Who can sign DNR orders, and how they become part of your medical record 3:25 The paramedic dilemma - why emergency responders MUST perform CPR unless they see a DNR 4:28 The "lying on the sidewalk" scenario that reveals the shocking legal requirement 5:00 Why your DNR needs to be accessible - it's not tattooed on your forehead 5:45 Where to get DNR forms and the California Medical Association resource 5:58 POLST forms explained - going beyond DNR with comprehensive medical orders 8:21 Real-world POLST placement in assisted living and skilled nursing facilities 8:54 Why these are doctors' orders, not legal documents, attorneys can prepare 9:15 The essential combination - why you need DNR, POLST, AND healthcare directives working together

Some ambulance workers feel the Government's funding boost is too little, too late. The Government's increasing ambulance service funding by 6%. Hato Hone St John says the extra money has helped it settle pay disputes with unions, ending weeks of industrial action. First Union National Ambulance Coordinator Faye McCann told Mike Hosking that it hasn't really fixed any of the problems they're concerned about, but it has alleviated some of the financial burden people are facing. She says it's definitely a Band-Aid fix. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An ambulance union says the Government's made the right call in increasing funding by 6% for Hato Hone St John. It's putting an additional $21 million into the ambulance service, increasing the overall funding to nearly $357 million. Ambulance Association Secretary Mark Quin told Ryan Bridge that it hasn't resolved the issues of pay parity, but it's more than they were offered previously. He says the pay increases take them above the inflationary pressures, as well as significant conditions around medical. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In a fast paced world that's so 'go go go' all the time, it's easy to start feeling buried under a mountain of obligations and responsibilities.

PTSD and Trauma Among First Line Emergency Responders: Role of Mindfulness and Meditation. First responders—firefighters, police officers, paramedics, and emergency medical technicians—often face intense, life-threatening situations. Their jobs regularly expose them to traumatic events, such as car accidents, fires, violent crimes, and the deaths of colleagues or civilians. These experiences can lead to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), trauma, anxiety, depression, and burnout. This amazing interview and his story is available as a free podcast available on our website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and many other podcast platforms.  Josh Grandinetti is a career fire fighter and Fire Captain. He talks about how a firefighter's simple mistake during a car fire tragically resulted in a man's death. The passing of a founding member of their fire department further intensified the emotional toll, illustrating how trauma manifests differently in individuals within the same profession. And how those and other incidents had a profound effect on Fire Fighters and other first responders that were involved. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and most all social media platforms. Exposure to trauma as a first responder can lead to PTSD, or as I prefer to call it PTSI. PTSD symptoms in first responders often include nightmares, flashbacks, irritability, difficulty concentrating, and physical symptoms like chronic pain and headaches. The cumulative exposure to trauma can lead to emotional numbness, hyperarousal, intrusive thoughts, and avoidance behaviors. This can significantly impact their personal and professional lives, reducing their ability to function effectively. Therefore, it's crucial to acknowledge the severity of these issues and seek appropriate support to navigate the complex emotions and challenges faced by these professionals. The Unique Challenges of First Responders First responders are the first on the scene at critical incidents, which often involve life-threatening situations, frightening events, and extreme stress. Such exposures place them at a higher risk for developing PTSD, major depressive disorder (MDD), panic disorder (PD), and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). The psychological toll of repeated exposure to traumatic stressors can exacerbate existing mental health conditions and contribute to diminished work performance, early retirement, substance abuse, and, in extreme cases, suicide. PTSD and Trauma Among First Line Emergency Responders: Role of Mindfulness and Meditation. The entire interview with him is available as a free podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, our website or most major podcast platforms. The U.S. National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive defines "first responders" as those who are responsible for protecting and preserving life, property, evidence, and the environment in the early stages of an incident. This role demands not only physical preparedness but also psychological resilience. Be sure to follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on  Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak and Medium and numerous other social media platforms. The Role of Mindfulness in Managing Trauma Josh Grandinetti, a Fire Captain with the Eloy Fire Department in Arizona, is an advocate for mindfulness as a tool to help first responders manage stress and trauma. The Eloy Fire District, established in 1946, serves over 10,300 residents and is staffed by 35 full-time and 1 part-time employee. Grandinetti's journey with meditation began eight years ago and quickly proved beneficial in his firefighting career, helping him better manage stress and detach from traumatic experiences. Inspired by his own experiences, Grandinetti founded "Foundation Fortified," a mindfulness training organization specifically designed for first responders. The organization aims to provide mindfulness as a professional standard and a personal tool for those in the field. It focuses on teaching mindfulness as a trainable skill that can help reduce suffering, bring inner calm, and enhance clarity. PTSD and Trauma Among First Line Emergency Responders: Role of Mindfulness and Meditation.  Mindfulness involves non-judgmental awareness of one's moment-to-moment experience, which can help first responders manage the unique challenges they face on and off duty. This practice can reduce stress, anxiety, and the urge to resort to ineffective coping mechanisms .Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, MeWe and other social media platforms.  Articles about this are on Newsbreak and Medium. Foundation Fortified: Promoting Mindfulness Among First Responders Foundation Fortified provides training sessions, guided meditations, and materials to help first responders build a healthier state of mind. This training encourages the development of skills that can improve mental health and well-being, both in professional settings and in personal lives. By fostering mindfulness, first responders can achieve a sense of calm, focus, and resilience, enabling them to navigate their demanding roles more effectively. PTSD and Trauma Among First Line Emergency Responders: Role of Mindfulness and Meditation.  The organization recognizes that any new skill can be tough to learn, particularly for first responders accustomed to constant action and quick decision-making. However, mindfulness is a different form of training, one that begins with accepting that one does not always need to perform an action to achieve a result. It encourages individuals to release the impulse to act immediately and instead notice the changes that arise in the moment. This practice can help first responders develop a sharper, more focused mind and fortify it through continued practice. Spreading Awareness and Support Foundation Fortified actively promotes its mission through social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. The organization also reaches a broader audience listen to this interview available as a free podcast on our website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms., We discuss mindfulness, trauma, and mental health strategies for first responders. The aim is to provide accessible resources and build a community of support for those who serve on the front lines. PTSD and Trauma Among First Line Emergency Responders: Role of Mindfulness and Meditation.  By incorporating mindfulness and meditation into their daily routines, first responders can better manage the emotional and psychological toll of their work. It's a simple yet profound approach to healing, providing a foundation for mental resilience and clarity amid the chaos they face every day.

While bridges run above the ground, this week's guest on the Disaster Tough Podcast is working to take this concept underground to the world of pipelines.Lindsay Sander is the CEO and Creator of Buxus, an app designed to improve two-way communication between pipeline operators and emergency responders and is proving to be a valuable planning and response resource for pipeline emergencies.The app has been available for a little over a year. In that time, Buxus has proven valuable in providing information to Emergency Managers and Responders. Its capabilities include interactive pipeline maps, potential hazards, pipeline-specific information on what is being transported by the pipeline, and emergency response actions that may need to be taken. Its clients include various fire departments and Hazmat teams around the country from big cities to smaller communities.In this episode Lindsay and host John Scardena discuss the benefits of having such information at your fingertips compared to previous processes, and how this app can be one more tool in the toolbox for effective emergency response.The Buxus app is FREE to emergency responders, and is available to download for both Apple and Android in the App Store and on Google Play Store respectively.
