Duane orchestrated, administered, and monitored the medications required in the recent emergent care of a post-stroke patient of mine who seized in CT and was immediately transported back to the ER. He never left the room. His knowledge, skill, and calm under fire were instrumental in stabilizing the patient for transfer. We could not have done this without him.
