GMS1, you've been requested Code 1[1] to Zone 121[2] at 5130 Colfax Avenue at the Dawes Middle School for a 12-year-old and having a mental health issue. Go to door 17, you'll be on TAC 4, TAC 4.
00:16
I'll be on the west side of Sun Valley,
00:20
near Sun Valley and Lane Drive with one.
00:26
Not exciting this one.
00:31
Go ahead.
00:34
So here's what we got. We have a 12-year-old that is currently in isolation box at the school.
00:43
Extremely combative behavior, threatening to stab all the people here at the school of the staff.
00:51
He's currently in the box just screaming and his dad is here. No de-escalation has been able to take place.
00:59
And dad said that there's a pretty good chance that we're going to have to sedate him. So we just have you started just to make sure that if we go that route that you can be involved? Yeah.
01:11
1914.
01:13
1914. Go ahead. Do they know what he weighs?
01:17
Maybe you actually want to change this to mental health and we'll be cut of living reports?
01:23
Received.
01:26
He weighs probably about 80 pounds. I've got hands heavy enough and ready to go.
01:33
I'd say right now we are probably a RAS plus for 17. We're a clear ratio.
01:44
What's your thoughts? We're set or do we need to go to ketamine?
01:51
We really haven't got that far because he's still in the box. We're just waiting for you and additional LPD for assistance.
01:59
But it's probably going to be more appropriate for ketamine, I would be thinking.
02:06
We'll figure out a couple doses for both medications and we'll kind of caucus when I get there. Clear. We'll see you and another view.
02:21
And obviously any other medical history and allergies would be good.
02:27
Yep,
02:30
got it. Thank you.
