Guest guest Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Let me qualify this by stating that I am not a very smart person. My questions are... 1) if your ambulance is inspected by the state, does a " damaged " /half open box count against you? Carrying meds in a bag often subjects the box they come in to the whims of the stability of the bag they are carried in. If a flap on the box is separated/torn, does that render the compromised box as unsterile (i.e. not useable)? 2) if you find an expired med or supplies on the ambulance, I've always been told to remove them immediately. If you do not have an appropriate quantity to replenish them, what is the " correct " answer in the state's eyes? I would imagine running short is 1000 times better than being caught with something expired. Often times, with my agency, replacement supplies are not readily available. Any info will be appreciated.
