UCLA is a base hospital, meaning the local paramedics are supervised by the ER there. AB’s treatment would have been reported by radio, and an emergency specialist nurse would have been on the other end of the communication. They would work collaboratively on his treatment. If the medics concluded their efforts were futile, the treatment and results so far would have been reviewed with the ER doctor, and the ER doctor would have made the decision to pronounce or continue treatment. For a heart attack, he'd have received everything the ER would have given him. So, in a practical sense, you could say he was treated at UCLA. Admittedly, the report was literally incorrect, but the guy who pronounced him dead would have been the same either way.

i still think about him daily. He was our energetic nerve center. Drudge is long gone and just posts links.
AB was a fearless warrior and a soldier!

There should be a second look whether there was any mistakes.

In PA, Its almost the same, with Paramedic services working with a “Command Hospital”.
If we had a cardiac arrest,the EKG would be sent to the Hospital and the Doc would consult with the crew. But we would work an arrest all the way to the hospital unless it was very clear the person was dead. If it was a witnessed arrest, then it would be worked all the way.
