Is this group of people all going on the transport, or does a single paramedic have to ride in the back of the bus with a combative patient?

“We're not titrating just enough to get the breathing going again, we just administer the whole thing.”

This is one of the reasons I hate first responders giving Narcan.
Method of transport and number of people in the back would depend on where the incident occurred, and the patient's condition and demeanor. It could be an ambulance or helicopter, and there may be an officer in back or not, depending.

Do you think it's better to just ventilate, vs administering enough narcan that the patient wakes up?
