For the last few days, your regular EMT partner has been having trouble sleeping, has been on edge, and has trouble concentrating on his job during EMS calls. Luckily, your call volume has been low with no serious calls since the infant cardiac arrest you both worked last month. You ask him if anything is bothering him and he states he is fine in every way. He states that he has been going to the bars lately to relax and invites you to come along for some drinks after work.

  C) Your partner is suffering from a delayed stress reaction and you should recommend that he seek professional counseling.
  D) Your partner is suffering from a cumulative stress reaction. This is a natural response and he should be fine in a few days.
