Genius. Obviously ensuring all other admin processes apply i.e patient hold it themselves etc but for efficiency and medicine uptake where the bite isnt working... seems a great idea.
My consultant showed me this handy trick today*** My mind = 🤯

Not a bad shout as I was looking at hybrids and all electric for the next blue light lease so would be good to see how this fairs.
@_Tom_A_Ward @t_riple9 @BHECCS what do u reckon to trying one of these for review for any of your next RRVs for the schemes? Demos (non blues) are on fleet now in plug in hybrid FWD and AWD…… 🚑🚨🚓

Really good to catch up with (not old) HEMS teams from @EHAAT_ and really enjoying seeing how the course is being delivered. Such a high level of care being demonstrated.
Can I get a reeeee-wind?! Feels like 2013 again @EHAAT_ with these familiar (not old) #HEMS faces supporting the @ehaatClinical ‘Day at Work’ for the Prehospital Care Course 2024 @BHECCS @LNAACT

Exciting times ahead for how the Ambulance service does its part in UEC response
On a recent visit to London Ambulance Service @Ldn_Ambulance meeting CEO @danielelkeles and #TeamLAS @ConfedMatthew reflected on the the role the ambulance service can play, not only in urgent and emergency care, so that the NHS gives the best possible care to patients.
