“EMS can’t transport a body.”
EMS here in TN transported my sister-in-law’s dead body. She might’ve bee officially declared dead at the hospital but was a goner 20 minutes before EMS even showed up.
It has to do with where and who “declares” it. They would “do CPR” as a performative action to get the body out of the house to “save the relatives.”
Of course, state laws drive all of this stuff. In MA, those are the rules. In TN, they might have different rules. In MA, you are not usually very far from a hospital. I am sure in TN the distances could be significantly further.
Pretty sure the EMS here in Virginia transported my neighbor to the hospital.
It’s not a crime scene, wasn’t shot or stabbed, the refrigerator didn’t zap him as he reached for that milk.
If anyone needs to look at the body , they can go to the hospital, not the bread aisle at Shop and Save.
