Symptom narrative

My hometown was severely affected by a flood on February 15th (worst in recorded history for our county). I hosted a Tetanus and Hepatitis Vaccine Clinic at the local elementary school, which is serving as a hub to donate supplies and water to those affected. Patient is a teacher and was volunteering her time. She had been at the school all week and hung out around my station all day. I administered patient's tetanus vaccine around 2:30 pm to her left arm. At this time, she was fine. I left the site around 3:30pm. She left the site around 5 to go home, where she lives alone. Around 5:30pm she was on the phone with a friend when he could tell something went wrong and she fell to the floor. He called 911. She was unconscious, but had a pulse and was taken to the nearest ER. I went to the ER when I found out the news around 8pm to be as transparent with the provider as possible and provide any additional information. The nurse took down my name and phone number. Dr. came out and said she had experienced a "catastrophic stroke" and was being flow to a Medical Center for further assessment. Patient was on the vent and unresponsive at my last update.
