Yea and it stretches and self sticks so you can do loose wrap and call it good for evac

Take the full roll and cut it in half with a knife put one half in your med kit and the other in the ifak if you have room

That’s smart. I’m going to do it

Its also really important that your teams medic or the RN/EMT knows stuff about you. A patch with blood type and allergies or just sharpie it on the ifak. It also helps to have a copy of health insurance paperwork in your admin pouch

Obviously I have my EMT-B but I’m currently working on my BSN

Actually let me correct myself, put it in a bag and shove it in a pants pocket. The cops will remove your vest and pack before admission to the hospital if it ever even makes it there. And thats great bro.

Im more preaching to the others who arent as medically educated as you are.

People don’t focus enough of medical

Maybe I should get medical insurance

write the info on your arms with sharpie

^^ hitler reference?

nah. just have had glucose/panic and had to write what I took for it on my arms so people would be able to treat it

my niece has to do this for allergies

always keep a sharpie for any number of reasons

Anyone think about pain control? That's how the government would try to get you back in the system with addictive stuff.

For me knowing how to do rehab stuff in advance, stretching, injury rehab exercises etc, is key.

Look at all our vets dying from opiates, not a good solution for anything medium to long term.

Opioids are a major issue here in Maine

The process usually looks like this:
-old person gets an injury cuz they’re old. Now they’re prescribed opioids. Idiot grandchild steals them and gets hooked

-working class guy gets hurt on the job (construction, etc) and he gets prescribed and hooked on opioids

So few people can pass a drug test here that dome companies fly in employees from the Midwest

A little late to the convo, but I have my blood type on my dog tags. And even for non-military, there are websites you can use to get dog tags made. They don't check to see if you're military or not. I've used Grunt.com before.

I'm gonna tatoo my blood type on my forehead

Smart man

Hows maine, dude? I've been thinking of moving there from cali, I've heard the gun laws are improving

Constitutional carry (18-20 year olds need concealed carry permit. 21 and over don’t)

Only capacity restrictions are when hunting

Castle doctrine on private property. Duty to retreat in public

But there’s the opioid epidemic like I said. Really sad times.

Taxes are kinda retarded but not as bad as some other states

They’ll probably get worse before they get better

Cold. Snow. Poor air quality. Hard to become a millionaire. (Limited economy)
