Paramedics work outside of hospitals to provide emergency medical care and transport patients to the hospital. They use equipment like oxygen masks to provide oxygen, spinal boards to immobilize potential spinal injuries, and defibrillators to restart hearts. Paramedics get to emergencies using various methods of transport in order to quickly help people in need. They work as part of a team and can perform tests to assess patients and determine the best treatment.

Transitioning The Mind From Paramedic to Community Healthcare Provider
The document describes the differences between a regular paramedic and a mobile integrated health paramedic (MHP) through two scenarios of treating the same patient. The regular paramedic treats the patient's symptoms during the 911 call but does not provide education, while the MHP takes an extended amount of time in the patient's home to perform treatment according to protocol, communicate extensively with the patient's doctor, and ensure the patient understands their condition and how to manage it, in order to prevent future readmissions. The key aspects of being a successful MHP involve taking time to gather information, showing compassion and understanding for the patient, being persistent in providing education and motivation, effective communication, confidence combined with humility, and making ethical decisions focused on

The document discusses a case study of a 27-year old patient named Sophie who experienced numerous unexplained medical symptoms over several years. Despite seeing many specialists, she received diagnoses of functional neurological disorder, migraine, anxiety and Raynaud's disease. Frustrated by a lack of answers, Sophie researched her symptoms extensively online. This led her to suspect she may have Hughes syndrome (antiphospholipid syndrome). Upon sharing her research and photos with a professor, she received an official diagnosis of sero-negative antiphospholipid syndrome, and found relief with new treatment. The document concludes patients should not be dismissed as hypochondriacs, doctors should consider evidence patients provide, and rar

This document summarizes a study exploring the experiences of stroke survivors and their carers in managing medications after being discharged from the hospital. It finds that they face various practical challenges with dexterity, swallowing, cognition and lack of knowledge about how to take medications. They also have motivational issues due to the preventative nature and lack of evidence the medications are working. Strategies used to manage medications include dosette boxes, reminders, and support from carers. The conclusion calls for improved patient education before discharge and support for those living alone or on multiple medications.
