A brilliant thread ⬇️ by @WicklowRR on the important role of Pre-Hospital Emergency Medicine in supporting patients, @AmbulanceNAS & colleagues across the acute hospital setting, many volunteer doctors involved including our v own @edsvuh @David_Menzies @svuh 👏👏
What is #Pre-Hospital #CriticalCare? A short 🧵: Also referred to as Pre Hospital Emergency Medicine (PHEM), #PHEM is “that area of medical care required for seriously ill or injured patients before they reach hospital (on-scene) or during emergency transfer to hospital” 1/11

We were privileged to meet Valerie, a recent cardiac arrest survivor, along with her family, other responders and all those who make Greystones and Wicklow a safer place!
In recent weeks, the communities of Greystones have proven the chain of survival works, not once - but twice. We were delighted to attend a First Responder appreciation evening, held at Rise at the Cove yesterday. 1/3

A trailblazer and a friend to me and many others, particularly in Wicklow! Best wishes for the future Mac!
Today marks the last day of 44 years of service for Macartan (Mac) Hughes. One of the most important figures in Irish pre Hospital care over the last few decades. His influence will last long into the future. We wish Trish & himself all the best for the next phase of their lives

Happy 19th Birthday one of Ireland's longest standing CFR schemes, Dunlavin CFR. Situated in Co. Wicklow, this scheme saw the introduction of CFR in Ireland and continues to provide an excellent service to the community. Well done all and thank you for your dedicated service.
