Docs would never get their hands dirty doing that. That’s the EMTs job!

With the obesity rate in my area, it would take a Quadradox. I’m a chiro. I’m currently treating 3 EMTs. Two of them got hurt trying to move a guy who weighed almost 500 pounds. I get patients all the time that my scale can’t weigh; it maxes out at 350lb.

Only if it’s a light patient.

the dox don’t do the lifting, they leave that to the paramedics

A lot of the time they are trying to get these people down stairs and narrow hallways. The confines keep them from being able to put extra people around the stretcher.

I always thought a paradox was a couple of places where you could tie up your boat.

Nice! :-)

While working in a prison system, two PHD’s were talking while standing in the hallway. I walked by and, after saying “good morning”…said "Hmm….what we have here is a paradox….they both laughed.

Redo: Thirdguy said, “That’s the EMTs job” This was also the first thing I thought of when I read the comic! (I don’t think interns even do that! …Except in hollie2009ad’s case) ;)

A paranoia isA bunch of mental blocks,And when Ben Casey meets KildareThey call it a paradox ..

Wiley’s dictionary is funny huh???!!!!!…at least I think it is

I was a guest at Univ of Mich Hospital for six weeks, and they have an entire staff of people they call the “lift team” whom they call upon to move patients or help them out of bed. And if they couldn’t get the lift team quickly, the nurses would do it. I never once had a doctor lift me.

I thought that was when Ben Casey meets Kildare

Or a couple of birds that go “quuck quuck”.
