Description

When does staying on scene help your patient—and when does it just waste precious minutes? In this episode, we tackle the art (and reality) of managing scene times. We dig into the tough calls about what interventions are actually worth it before transport, what can safely wait until you’re rolling, and how to keep your patient’s best interest at the center of every decision. From trauma to medical calls, we share real-world examples, common pitfalls, and how to balance patient care with scene efficiency. Because sometimes the best thing you can do… is get moving.

As always, if you have a story to tell—funny, wild, heartbreaking, or unforgettable—you can share it through our website. We’d love to feature it on a future episode.
