How do you perform a Tracheostomy?

A number of times I am suppose to do a Tracheostomy but I don't know how. I am level 5 in Amon Heights and have not unlocked this yet. I can't find it under any treatment options.

Hello! It can only be performed outside the ambulance, such as other first aid procedures like a tourniquet. If it's not performed by the player, your NPC partner will "perform" the procedure for you and Scoring will reflect "missing" the treatment.

Oh I see, thanks. I didn't realize some procedures were only done outside the ambulance. I think I picked up a bad habit. I often dont click on those inspection areas on a patient until I load them in the ambulance. I have just loaded them on a stretcher and diagnosing them once inside. I think even my partner doesn't do it then. Cause it days it needs to be done once I check them.

I'll be sure to work on them more outside from here on out.

OH NO hahaha, yes, the observation points is a great way to know if patients need immediate first aid. For example, you may see blood stains, but until you manually check and double check with your tablet, it may only be a bruise/scrape, and not a laceration which requires a tourniquet. Good luck on your path, medic!
