Both of my kids are medics with a local company, Med Star, and they tell me stories like this all the time. She had to Narcan one particular woman 3 times in one week. Frequent fliers are very common. Then all of the family tries to jump in the ambulance with them for a ride to the hospital. My daughter, 15 years' experience, is getting burned out. She has been substitute teaching at the elementary school where her kids go. She is much happier doing that instead of being a medic.
