Please do forward this information on to all colleagues. We need every one of our ambulance staff to have this number in their pockets :)
Don’t suffer in silence. Support is available for UK ambulance staff 24-hours a day from the TASC Crisis Phoneline. The number to call is 0300 373 0898. It’s confidential and run by professionals. Please help spread the word about this important service. @TASCharity @AACE_org
Cold water shock is an involuntary response by the body being suddenly or unexpectedly immersed into cold waterπŸ₯Ά It can also make you gasp and increase your breathing rate which can cause you to inhale water, panic and drown. Thinking of swimming in open water? Don't risk it⚠️
