COMMUNICATIONS 4th Quarter Call of the Quarter

Winner Medic Virginia Rangel

On October 29 th , 2018 Medic Virginia Rangel received a phone call from a concerned citizen who reported that a woman in her apartment complex had just delivered a baby on the porch outside. During the course of the call, Virginia discovered that the mother was altered and was attempting to leave the scene before the afterbirth was delivered or the cord had been cut. Virginia managed two patients, provided pre-arrival instructions for the baby and the mother, and reassured the caller that help was coming. This was one of those calls that isn’t the normal, run of the mill pregnancy/baby delivery call. Virginia did an amazing job handling the situation in the most appropriate way possible. Congratulations Virginia!
