I'm well aware. I am EMT trained.
Like, I know society is what it is right now and the immediate justifications but it still feels like a gigantic social failing of our social structures.
I think my criticism lies in the fact that funerary services are a private industry separate from healthcare services such as ambulance, rather than with the ambulance services as I previously misstated.
Like it necessitates what you described where the incentive is to just abandon the corpse instead of taking it back to a morgue at the hospital and taken care of from there but, no, the corpse is to be abandoned until some other industry is able to be arranged.
Can you guys pronounce dead? In Canada they will do CPR until they get to the hospital and ER physician will pronounce death.
I only managed to become EMT-Basic. I believe you have to be an EMT-Paramedic to be able to pronounce dead on scene but don't quote me. Never got to do much with the training as I developed neuropathy and began to have issues with my hands, so I didn't pursue it for a career.
