"The A$$hole in the Room" is a podcast that tackles the often uncomfortable yet relatable topic of dealing with difficult people, particularly those who exhibit challenging or abrasive behaviors in various settings. The episodes aim to provide EMS providers with insights and strategies for managing interactions with such individuals, whether in personal relationships, workplace environments, or social situations where the "a$$hole" is present. This was an unscripted, off-the-cuff episode where Dr. D and I spoke openly and freely about dealing with difficult personalities. Get ready, this one is VERY different from the other episodes.

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.

This raises the ethical question, should EMS be doing CPR on patients that are VERY unlikely to survive? We know that all patients have the right to refuse care, and on the flip side, have the right to demand care, and EMS is caught right in the middle of a legal and more often ethical grey area.

Thought biases, also known as cognitive biases, refer to systematic errors in thinking that can influence our decision-making processes and judgments. Understanding these biases is essential for EMS professionals as it helps in recognizing and mitigating potential errors in critical situations. Understanding these biases can help EMS professionals be more aware of their own thinking processes and make more informed decisions. By continuously learning about thought biases and engaging in critical thinking exercises, EMS professionals can develop strategies to mitigate the impact of biases and improve patient care.

"Train like your life depends on it. You don't rise to the occasion, you fall to the level of your training. Muscle memory. Slow is smooth and smooth is fast." I am sure we all have heard these things yelled across the drill ground, said in an AAR after a critical call, or even muttered by our mentors. So what does it mean? Is it a mindset, or science? Ryan and I do our best at talking about both the mindset and the science of training how and why we should train in certain ways. If you are a training officer, instructor, FTO, or want to step up your training game, take notes on this one, Ryan is full of information!
