AIDED IN NURSING HOME


Question 26 was the aided in the nursing home according to makethelist.  The question locked you into 216-01 which says for the cop to give the aided to the command clerk, but 216-01 has a revision notice within that says to follow 216-02 for the preparation of aided cards----which would make the right answer for the cop to give the aided to the Desk to review/sign before it is given to the cmd clerk.  I think the proposed key has the answer as give aided to command clerk, but I'm not sure.  Is this another possible double answer in a case where the idiots who wrote the test misread another PG procedure?  Or was the answer something else?

No answer said give aided to command clerk. There was wait 20 minutes call ambulance again
Do aided give to desk. Make activity log entry of acr/pcr. Or just go 98

cop80 do you know which was the correct choice as per the proposed key? Thanks. I am trying to scramble for some points here.

I believe the correct answer was to put the acr # in the activity log. I believe they should have put acr or pcr # because the body of the question didn't give you enough info to know that it was an acr #.

 That's exactly why it should be a throw out.

Guys, I dropped a lot of easy ones but I don't think you have a case here. The lady almost choked to death...an ambulance was coming and you weren't leaving until it did. ACR in you A/L was the only correct answer.

Not trying to stir the pot just making an observation. I was pissed about the ECB question and planned to protest but I realized I really don't have an argument there

The body of the story told us an ambulance was called but it didn't tell us she was removed by the ambulance. The more correct answer would have been to make a a/l entry with the ACR or PCR number. Just because the ambulance was called doesn't mean she was removed by it. It's not our responsibilty to assume on these test, it's what they give us and nothing more or less. The key's recent email with the examples of successful protest has a similar example.

IF this is correct , but 216-01 has a revision notice within that says to follow 216-02 for the preparation of aided cards----which would make the right answer for the cop to give the aided to the Desk to review/sign before it is given to the cmd clerk, then , it would be a double answer.

 216-02 has the cop report the incident to the desk officer, pct of occurrence.  It does not specifically tell the cop to deliver the aided to the desk. 216-01  specifically tells the cop to deliver the aided to the command clerk. I think we have a stronger argument trying to get the entire question throw out rather than a double answer.

Yea, I got the aided one wrong and it was something I knew. I got duped by giving the aided to the desk when its supposed to go to the command clerk. A technicality I knew, but still dropped. ACR/PCR in the A/L was right, don't think its worth a protest...

Did it say acr/pcr or did it just say acr? The answer to that question makes the difference. If it only said acr then there is a protest, if not then we're screwed with that point.

That makes no difference. The ambulance was coming. You can not justify any other answer

No where in the question did it state that an ambulance was coming. We can not assume. THROWOUT ...... I could say acr was wrong because the officers decided to take her in the rmp if you want to start assuming.

 This question will definitely remain unchanged along with many other difficult questions.

 It also did not say that the cop was properly equipped with a black pen. I think you got a shot at that one.

I did protest this question on the basis that the ambulance wasn't there and that we can't assume it arrived therefore we wouldn't get the acr #. I argued that if we aided was removed by rmp we would have been given pcr. rising star representative was prevent in my room and said its a dissent argument.

I had the same argument, all the choices were incorrect the ambulance never arrive at the scene so we had to assume they did to get the ACR # and put it in the memobook which was the correct answer.

I just wanted the question to be thrown out. I stated there was no correct answer as the last choice was to put acr in you're memo book and go 98 is also incorrect as per definition of what aided case is.
