From Nicholas Veniamin:
Forwarded to me by an anonymous paramedic who wishes me to share their message to you patriots.
“I am a paramedic I don't know you and you don't know me But I chose to be what I am... I wanted to help. I will come if you call
My role is to help you. To act in YOUR best interest. "Primum non nocere" That means "First, do no harm" That is my oath.
Many of my brother's and sisters who chose this role have forgotten our oath. Some have sadly never learnt it. Doctors take their own oath...but the rest us, paramedics, nurses, HCAs, technicians, physio's, etc are also bound morally to ours.
Something bad has happened. Something really bad. We have done something bad.
I will not be at peace ever if I don't speak now. We have broken our oath to you... "Trust Policy" These words are an evil. They are a curse, a spell, a hex, a tool of sinister intent and blackmail.
I'll explain why.
We have been fooled...the worst kind of trickery. They have slowly but surely trained us away from compassion, away from empathy, away from integrity and instead they have led and trained us into fear and submission.
There is no longer any training of positivity or kindness. It's all clinical, all cold, all policy driven and fear motivated. This transfers onto our patients, the vulnerable we chose to care for.
Every single day I take my poorly people to hospital I witness them being stripped of their human rights... Nurses are not gaining consent anymore. Stop and let that resonate.....
Nurses have STOPPED gaining consent!!!!!!!
Every single day I witness a nurse say "I need to swab you" and then literally shove a swab up the person's nasal cavities!
THIS IS NOT CONSENT!!!! THIS IS ABUSE!!!!
How the fuck are they getting away with this you say??? I'll tell you.... They say a spell. "Trust policy states...." And boom! You're gone!
If the person wishes to have this procedure then they should make an informed decision and give consent. They should then take the swab from the nurse or HCA or doctor and do it THEMSELVES!
I took an elderly lady into A&E...she was having a TIA/mini stroke. Her speech was altered but her mind was clear. The TIA was clearly resolving. As I was verbally handing over to the doctor a nurse came at her and states "I need to swab you" she then shoved away!
My lady jerked her head back and stared in horror as the nurse walked off....the nurse hurt her, the nurse did not gain consent.
My heart broke and I felt like shit. The lady looked at me and two big tears fell.
I'm not doing this anymore.
I have been a part of this... ignorantly but still a part of it, believing I was doing the right thing following "Trust policy"
Let me tell you all...
Your body is yours alone No doctor no nurse no paramedic no health care worker has rights to your body. Consent must be gained. Your consent. Anything else is false.
We cannot hold you hostage to the curse "Trust policy" unless you consent! We can't do that shit! But we are.
Because you are allowing it.
Please stop it. Please please please. Take back your consent. Take back your power. If something feels wrong there's a reason why. Trust yourself. Stop believing the lies.
If you need to go to hospital and refuse to be swabbed then do you really believe they can refuse you treatment??????
I'm sorry I was ever a part of this.. Truly deeply sorry.. I will protect as many of you as I can I promise. But please share the truth xx
All my love and light
Me, the people's paramedic x”
Thank you ?, you’re very sweet. I’m sorry you have so much pain nerve pain is terrible. I had adenomyosis which is where it’s just in the uterine wall but horribly painful. I had a hysterectomy bout 7-8 years ago and thank the Lord that worked. I am sorry you have been so badly treated also. It’s a real kick in the teeth to be humbled so low sometimes. It can really be such a catch 22 because you’re afraid of retaliation if you say anything. Also when you are really sick it’s not so easy to just say- “eh I’m going to another hospital where they’ll treat me better!” Insurance might never cover it it you switch and it’s just not possible most of the time without effecting your health or being dangerous. And there’s no guarantee you’d get any better treatment somewhere else Sometimes you just have to hold on for the night shift because they are better. We need to be more in charge with medical professionals though for sure. I’m raising my daughter to trust that she is indeed smart enough and will always be smart enough to be in charge of her own body and health and it doesn’t matter if someone is a doctor or not it’s okay to think for yourself do your own research and tell them when they are wrong. To remember they aren’t deity, they aren’t infallible. Lord knows she’s seen already with me that doctors don’t know it all and make plenty of mistakes.
I hate so much that we know each other's pain so intimately. Hugs, fren.
And it is such a catch-22! I could get a hystorectomy, but with the endo all over, I'm afraid that my care would decrease exponentially. Endo is a "uterine" disease, and if I don't have a uterus, why would my gyn continue to treat it? And a GI doc has no experience with Endo because it's not a GI disease, so even though that's where the disease physically presents itself, they just simply wouldn't touch it.
I've been treated like a criminal with this disease for practically my whole life. That I'm lying, or that I'm making it up, or that I'm just looking to score some drugs. I'm currently at the continued mercy of the pain clinic, that I had to sign a contract for, which means that if I don't completely "toe the line" that they can discharge me, and then good luck finding another.
It's just so... hard. It's hard. And I'm so tired.
Hopeful for this upcoming generation of women to be able to be their own advocate in a way that I never knew I needed.
I will pray for you, stay strong
Thank you, fren. <3
I’m sure God will pay them back for what they did one day. Our task right now as the one abused or mistreated, is to forgive them so we can be happy and free from their sin. As they say, sin begets sin
Yes fren! ? hugs! I’m right there with you with the pain mgmt doc. That situation makes me so mad I wanna spit nails. It’s disgusting what they have done to people in this country, the license they have over us is criminal in my opinion. We just have to take it or be in excruciating pain, ya know. ?. I hear ya with the endo- it’s one of those conditions that docs can’t really do much about and usually know even less about so they aren’t real eager to help. Historically getting a hysterectomy doesn’t really help much with the pain of adhesions since it’s outside of the uterus. Hang in there don’t get too discouraged, you’ll be in my prayers. I would have never made it this far without Jesus and my family. Keep checking because medicine changes at the speed of light there is probably a treatment or cure on the horizon (there are lots of good people in medicine who do want to help people). Women’s health is actually a fairly new thing in medicine and you would not believe how many women suffer out there like you. Keep up with it, keep looking into specialist when you can because it will change.
