Tenbae Posted August 31, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 (edited) When the power went out.... On Saturday the 27th of August 2022, there was an explosion at the Palmer Power Plant, leaving the whole of Los Santos in the dark. For the Los Santos Emergency Medical Services, this gave us a handful of new challenges and new ways of conducting our roleplay on a daily basis. We received new ways of conducting check-ups, surgeries, treatment, and hospital management, and at the same time ensuring that we had sufficient power at all times. The San Andreas State Government assisted us with the installation and refilling of an emergency generator, producing enough power for us to keep patients on life support alive whilst conducting other smaller procedures. Patient Stories A high-profile prisoner was brought to Pillbox a few days prior to the outage for surgeries and treatment for a life-threatening injury. The female was put on life support to strengthen her body for the second round of surgeries. As first responders were working at the Palmer Power Plant, they realized that she was left unattended at the hospital. The Sheriff's Department was alerted and they blocked off Ward A, not letting anyone unauthorized leave or enter the premises. The inmate survived, but was being attended to by nurses nearly at a 1:1 level. Two men were brought to Pillbox MD with serious injuries from a vehicle accident. They both struggled to stay conscious during treatment. Upon arriving, a team of medical professionals was set to treat the patients. Because we were unable to provide proper scanning at the time, the San Andreas Government was contacted to install and refill an emergency generator and an older set of equipment, such as a portable x-ray machine was used. One of the men ended up needing emergency surgery, requiring more power to be provided. Lucky both the patients survived. A man was brought to Pillbox MD with serious injuries to his leg during the reconstruction of the Palmer Power Plant, but the LSEMS were not able to provide the needed treatment to save the leg in time. He was stabilized overnight, but the following day, the man was in critical condition, and the surgeon had to amputate their right leg to save the man from losing his life. With the right equipment and support, the LSEMS could have saved the limb in time and will continue to pursue this in the time moving forward. Monday the 29th of September, the LSEMS, with inspiration from the LSPD the day prior, decided to travel down to City Hall to hand out food and water to the citizens of San Andreas. The employees of the LSEMS spoke to many citizens, listening to their worries and experiences during this time. Many people’s source of food, was the pop-up stands held by the LSEMS and the LSPD. Weekly meetings had to be moved out of the hospital area and to public locations that had enough light and space. During the meeting at The Maze Bank Arena, the group had to move outdoors to continue their supervisory and command meetings. EMTs had to prioritize ward spaces and where to conduct their services such as surgeries, interviews, therapy sessions, and responses. The elevators were too unstable, leading the EMTs to use the extra time to walk around the whole of Pillbox to switch floors.
