I live in Indiana, and here, ALFs aren't even required to have anyone trained in CPR or First Aid.

My paramedic son says that research shows that CPR is much more effective when you’re stationary compared to doing CPR in the back of a moving ambulance

I completely agree, especially about not being able to get into the facility. something else though, there's so many times dispatch doesn't tell us it's a cardiac arrest. we come in with the cot and jump bag. now we're having to run back to the truck to get the rest of the equipment and meds we need.

Rushing causes adrenaline dump, adrenaline causes mistakes. Also my county we do not transport codes with few exceptions.

and that's on the assumption that both people on ambulance are paramedics. A lot of services run 1 paramedic and an EMT on a crew to help give more coverage to area.

And it’s better to do cpr on scene then in the ambulance due to it’s better to keep perfusion going in the room then going down the road.

The nursing homes I’ve been in have AEDs…. Anyhow, EMTs do not rush we move with a purpose

I do agree with everything you said for the most part. I ran the code team when I worked trauma at the hospital. I had everything set up for this specific code: I had someone at the door to show them to the room. I had someone already print the entire medical history. We had been doing CPR for over 20 mins prior to their arrival. They said our compressions were great so we continued those. One paramedic started getting the equipment to intubate. The other staff member freaked- she could not even gather IV supplies. The paramedic in charge looked at me and yelled for me to throw in a line. I had someone else take over compressions. Got the line- then he started asking for Epi- she couldn’t find it! I started digging through the bag to find it! It was a nightmare! I felt awful for the lead paramedic! I found out later the other person was basically a “helper”. That patient had no chance 😢

I can say that in our area, we work a cardiac arrest until we get ROSC. After that is achieved, we then perform a 12 lead, and send it to the hospital. They also want us to make sure we can keep ROSC for about 20 mins before transport. We have new protocols starting at the 1st of July which limit us to five EPI's on a code. so they're really trying to limit how long we're working a code before calling it. I believe the target is 20 to 25 minutes maximum. But when we call to terminate efforts, we better have the patient intubated and on capnography, as well as our IV or IO access, and been through our ACLS algorithm..
