Can People In Shock Still Be Conscious? Stages of Shock

Comments:

In this episode of RoyOnRescue, Roy Shaw, Paramedic answers a question that came in this week that read.

“Is it true that conscious victims can also go into shock?  And if so, is comforting and re-assuring the patient important?”

~R

I thought that these were fair questions and deserved a RoyOnRescue explanation… video style.  So be sure and watch and let me know if you have any further questions.

Best Wishes,

Roy
