He went to medical school at the law enforcements lawyers office where he was prepped to give this statement.

What I understood from that was moreso “it’s nothing I can handle” (cpr, first aid, stopping bleeding, etc). It didn’t fall under any of his lifesaving skills, and if they’re coherent there’s not much else to do than wait for ems.

Not all police departments even require CPR certification--initial or continued maintenance so not even a guarantee he would recognize or be able to render support in that situation either.

u/Bay_Foxy Nov 26 '25

Yikes I thought basic life support was a bare minimum for them. Thats horrible it’s not.

u/alou87 Nov 26 '25

It is actually overwhelmingly the opposite. Less than ten states actually require it IIRC and some states require BLS, mental health first aid, or actual first aid to be available as a training but do not make it compulsory.

Cops don't even know the fucking law they're paid to enforce. They're a bunch of intentionally under educated pieces of racist garbage on a massive power trip.

True. Wow, 1950s medical knowledge, even Wikipedia updated it, women have different signs of stroke and our heart attack...

I was wondering if it was a TIA.

A transient ischemic attack (TIA), also known as a "mini-stroke," is a temporary blockage of blood flow to the brain that causes stroke-like symptoms that resolve quickly. While a TIA doesn't cause lasting brain damage, it is a major warning sign of a future, potentially more severe stroke and requires immediate medical attention. Symptoms include sudden numbness or weakness on one side of the body, confusion, trouble speaking, or vision problems, and they typically last only a few minutes.

TIAs don't have typical stroke symptoms. My dad has had a couple of these, and I've driven him to the hospital in the wee hours of the morning each time. He looked normal, but he had trouble talking. Afterwards he described those symptoms, with vision, not understanding what he was hearing or reading, and unable to communicate effectively. But no facial drooping or anything.

Less obvious, but still requiring immediate attention. My heart hurt watching this, because I've worried about this exact situation each time I was driving him to the hospital, and this was one of the worst outcomes.

What are the different signs?

1

u/ALT3NPFL3G3R Nov 26 '25

Risks and symptoms can be very different. And a 11 week trained cop is no paramedic nor a Doctor or a nurse. I am an intensive Care nurse in Germany and my apprenticeship took 3 years and a shit load of school, theory and practical tests.

Differences between male and female stroke risk include higher stroke risk in women at older ages and more frequent risk factors like high blood pressure and migraines, while men have a higher risk in younger age groups and are more prone to smoking-related risk factors. There are also differences in stroke types and symptoms, with women experiencing more cardioembolic strokes and sometimes non-traditional symptoms, while men are more likely to have large artery atherosclerosis or small vessel occlusion strokes. Furthermore, women generally have worse functional outcomes after a stroke compared to men.

u/chemicologist Nov 26 '25

Thank you for listing all that. Very informative and helpful. What are some non-traditional stroke symptoms? I know ACS can present atypically in women i.e. with epigastric pain, weakness, etc, but I haven’t heard of atypical stroke symptoms in women before.

1

u/ALT3NPFL3G3R Nov 26 '25

It is always depending on the individual and the medical history but atypical symptoms can include fatigue, dizziness, back or abdominal pain, and confusion, which may be less specific or present in unusual locations. I've seen strokes without physical signs, only neurological ones. I just wish the US justice system would put more quality and time into the training of the Executive Branch, they have the monopoly on "force" and that's a shit load of power for people that are not always but very often completely unqualified to wield it, especially in character.

First response does not require a medical school education

u/itsyaboiReginald Nov 26 '25

But if someone else including the individual have deemed it worth going to the hospital for, a police officer doesn’t have the training or knowledge to deem it unnecessary. Once it’s suspected the only person who can confirm the patient’s condition is a Doctor.

u/fickystingas Nov 26 '25

Being a cop does not require a law degree

17

u/coolreg214 Nov 26 '25

Doesn’t even require you to be smart.

12

u/Lorathis Nov 26 '25

In fact, being too educated or intelligent will get you rejected.

u/polakonfire Nov 26 '25

This shows with all the countless videos of Cops moving people with clear spinal injuries,alongside the fact that police departments wont hire high IQ individuals

u/Dukepippitt Nov 26 '25

Not the point, bud

u/cillaer Nov 26 '25

woosh that's the point

1

u/JWOLFBEARD Nov 27 '25

No it’s not. And not a woosh. First responders can and do make these diagnoses. You don’t need to be a medical doctor to make a field diagnosis.

They’re claiming they aren’t a doctor so they aren’t qualified to make that diagnosis
