In this episode, Ginger Locke interviews Dr. Jeffrey Jarvis. He is the medical director for Williamson County EMS in Central Texas. He is a board-certified Emergency Medicine physician and a paramedic.
In this information-packed episode, Dr. Jarvis discusses:
- Video laryngoscopy
- Ketamine
- Delayed-sequence intubation
- Ultrasound
- Just Culture
- How he directs his medics to approach EKGs
Listeners who hang around until the end can look forward to Dr. Jarvis sharing a bit about the challenges he faced as a paramedic, and the medical podcasts he listens to while training for marathon running.
In some episodes of Medic Mindset, Ginger interviews medics who she affectionately calls the “medic-next-door.” Their stories are universally relatable to medics everywhere. In other episodes, she interviews subject-matter experts. In this episode, Dr. Jarvis gives the listener the benefit of both.
