My husband has:

—Delivered two babies in the parking lot of a hospital because god forbid the doctors take a step out

—Sat on top of a woman doing CPR as they transported her from a nursing home to the CONNECTING hospital via tunnel because god forbid the nursing home or hospital do anything but call 911. The woman was at an awards ceremony 6 months later for fire/police because she insisted my husband get recognized for saving her life.

—Husband has had to push an ER doctor out of the way to intubate a patient himself before the Dr let the guy suffocate. I could go on... These things happen everyday. Husband is a FF in NY state.

Oh,and the time there was a person with a head injury at the ER who the doctors just wanted to shove into a room. My husband almost got kicked out of the hospital for insisting the person immediately receive a CAT scan. They basically did the CAT scan to shut him up, the guy had an aneurysm and would have died with out immediate surgery. His injury was like the one Natasha Richardson died of, thinking she only had a bad headache.
