We've all heard the saying, "If it's icky, sticky, brown, and not yours, don't touch it." But let's face reality, in EMS, we often don't have the luxury of choice. Patients deteriorate, wound dressings must be changed, and sick individuals call 9-1-1. We administer airway adjuncts and medications that increase our exposure to aerosolized particles—particles that seem to have an uncanny ability to travel impressive distances and head straight for our faces at the speed of a sneeze. So, how can we prioritize safety? What precautions should we be taking, and what gear is essential? We've got just the expert to shed light on all of this. Join us as Dr. Stanton delves into the realm of infectious diseases.
