What are some quotes related to Emergency and/or Medical services that you like?

Here are some that have stuck with me:

"There are only two things proven to help in a cardiac arrest: high quality CPR and early defibrillation"

"Treat the patient, not the machine"

"It's their emergency, not yours."

@RicochetJaguar Good quotes. CPR and defibrillation is my favorite.

That one was repeated so many times at training school for me! It's still useful in the heat of the moment to draw attention back to the essentials!

Are there any quotes you have come across that you would like to share? :)

@RicochetJaguar

I think James Bond in Casino Royale would agree about the defibrillation one too?

I like

"Prepare for the worst but hope for the best"

@RicochetJaguar Also , when in public start CPR, have someone call 911 and ask to bring the AED.
