Ok let me start by sayng that I dont know enough to give an informed answer on b.\na. The tilting factor would depend on the force of friction between the patient and the sheet.  Some materials would promote sliding more quickly than others (silk for example), other would inhibit sliding.  Also to be considered is th weight of the patient...heavier will slide quicker coz of more force.

Well, if they start doing their job this would IMPROVE their image tremendously. \nAs an example ONLY. I had a recent stay in the hospital. (3 years ago) Broke my leg snapping the tib, the fib, and shattered my ankle. Morphine good chit. But as good as the morphine was it made me so sick I couldn't even keep water down. Back then I had a beard that went half way down my chest area. Needless to say when I upchucked  my beard became saturated with whatever it was that I upchucked. I'd call the nurses station with that buzzer thingy they give ya. Yep the nurse did come in. Say the mess and provided me with a wash cloth to clean up. Keep in mind my leg was in one of those harness thingy's and I was basically immobile. It didn't help matters that I was pretty much out of it. As I said Morphine good chit. But now a days nursing has changed to the point if I go back to the hospital I will not stay any longer than I absolutely have to. And yes, As soon as my leg came out of that harness thingy I signed my self OUT of the hospital.

In the hospital when a patient is not breathing or even having a heartbeat, they call a "code blue".  The medical staff is trained in how to respond, which includes the first person on the scene, to all the nurses, Drs in the hospital.. etc.  At every nursing station there is a "crash cart".  It has emergency supplies for restarting the patient's heartbeat, breathing, etc.  Including the electric paddles you see in all the TV shows.  Of course, the key is to get them revived and stablized enough to move to intensive care or wherever they need to go.  \n\nI was a nurse's aide in a hospital and called a code when I was just 17. It was the fastest thing I've ever seen.  Came in to bring the patient fresh water and found him not breathing. Used the bedside phone to call the nurse's station. I did the initial chest compressions while a nurse did mouth to mouth.. and then stepped out of the way when more qualified people arrived.  And... btw... the patient lived!

My Grandma is an RN and is director of nurses at a hospital. I think that she wears a white lab coat. I know I have seen white lab coats at her house that have her name tag and hospital ID on them.

Go visit any hospital's nursing station...and ASK.  The RN's will be happy to tell you. \nSure you'll need to learn how to draw blood and a lot of other euuuuuuie stuff.  But, unfortunately most RNs don't get to do enough of the 'hands-on' stuff, but are (as they'll voluntarily tell you) becoming 'pencil-pushers'; it's a known fact in the medical field that the Nurse's Assistant or the LPNs will have more contact with the patient.  But, only an RN can 'manage' a nurse's station.

If the victim was an adult, I would first check the scene for safety.  If the scene appeared safe, I would tap the victim's shoulder and shout "Are you OK?"  If the victim didn't respond, then I would call 911 or ask someone to do it.  I would attend to the victim by first looking, listening, and feeling for breathing.  If the victim is breathing and has signs of circulation than I would put that person in what is called the "recovery position", which is rolling the victim to his side with the top leg bent at the knee and the top arm bent at the elbow with the hand under the head.  Bottom arm and leg are straight.  If there is no sign of breathing and circulation than I would begin appropriate CPR care.  If the victim were an infant or child, I would do the same thing except if I was alone, I would provide 1 minute of care before calling 911.

You would ask "How is You?" of You's doctor or nurse, or of a person who has seen You more recently than you have.

Make sure  you keep talking to your patient ,during evaluation Even if there suppose to be unconscious and look real good for a medical alert bracelet,some instructors like to hide them
