Life & Safety with Jimmy Rios

Welcome to Part 1 of our 3-Part 911 series! Have you ever been in a situation that left you second-guessing whether it was dire enough to dial 911? Well, buckle up and let Jimmy and Megan take you on a whirlwind tour of those critical moments where calling emergency services isn't just a good idea, it's a potential lifesaver. In this episode, we navigate the tricky waters of emergency scenarios—unconscious individuals, severe injuries, and the need for urgent interventions. We'll even chat about EpiPens and Narcan with a sprinkle of our usual humor. Join us as we crack the code on the indispensable role of dispatchers, who are the unsung heroes ready to guide you through crisis management step by step.
Laughter ensues as we tackle the do's and don'ts of emergency response, including why a sprint to the firehouse might not be in your best interest. We share tales from the front lines of safety and sprinkle in personal anecdotes that bring home the reality of these high-stakes situations.
