30 minutes is pretty good response time! The one occasion when I was involved in a backcountry emergency it took 8 hours for the Air Force to arrive with helicopters.
Have had to give myself stomach and intramuscular injections for various medical reasons too.
Have had to remove foreign metal form my leg, clean and stitch up the wound which was relatively shallow but long. Another accident, car crash in a remote area.
Always have a first aid kit handy! And probably don't hang out with me too much away from civilisation..
