Ottawa Paramedics say one of their dispatchers-in-training had a busy Friday night, when she helped a man deliver a baby over the phone.
In a tweet, Paramedics say Alexandra got the call at around 9:23 p.m. Friday from near the Montfort Hospital. She coached dad over the phone about what to do, and a healthy baby boy was born at 9:27 p.m.
Both mom and baby are doing fine.
Congratulations to Alexandra, one of our dispatcher trainee, who coached the delivery of a baby boy over the phone Friday night!
