The insight started when Carmen, an orthopedic surgeon-researcher, and Katie, a physical therapist- researcher participated in ride-alongs with EMS providers to patient’s homes. And yet, after assisting the older adult to their feet, the EMS providers would leave. I think, as providers, we don’t get to see that.

If they’re in a major car crash, they’re going to have more long-term complications probably than a 20-year-old would. But I think then the other factor in this that makes it complicated is the decision for someone in Manhattan might be very different than the decision for someone in, like, rural Wyoming.

Most emergency providers wanted to do the right thing for seriously ill patients, but they didnt have the knowledge, skills, or experience to do it. We weren’t randomizing providers or patients. Do they have documents in the record like medical orders for life sustaining treatment or a healthcare proxy? Is that right?

It is an indicator that to provide the best care, we need to go deeper into trying to understand what the dynamics are there.
