Aurora officials are debating how to regulate the use of sedatives by Aurora paramedics after the high-profile 2019 death of Elijah McClain, who died after a violent encounter with police that led to an injection of ketamine.
Union President Travis Pulliam told council members on Monday that the McClain case and following charges have scared his members who “don’t want to be the next firefighter charged with a crime for doing their job.”
Hill argued that the reason droperidol was being considered is because the overwhelming medical evidence indicates that it’s a safer choice than what’s currently used for patients who are alcohol-intoxicated to lessen risk of future complications, something all of the Denver Metro EMS directors agree with. He said the fire rescue averaged using midazolam with combative patients 13 times per month over the past six months.
“From my perspective, that’s a civil liberties issue, on top of potentially getting into a complicated medical situation as we saw with Elijah,” Marcano said. “So I don’t think it’s appropriate to utilize medication as a chemical restraint, period, and my colleagues agreed with me.”
