There are many instances of police officers arresting paramedics, nurses and firefighters for ridiculous reasons while they are trying to do their jobs as first responders. That includes refusing to break the law, such as when a nurse knows performing a procedure without a court order is assault. The administration of medically unnecessary ketamine does not belong in the toolbox of things that the police request, or more realistically "order". It is irresponsible to assume police will defer to judgement of professionals with training and a code of ethics, when they are solely focused on making a person comply. There are enough terrible public policy decisions where people later claim "we didn't know". People are saying now this is a recipe for abuses and unnecessary deaths.
