Empowering clinicians build a strong foundation in PHEM, fostering excellence & enabling them to emerge as brilliant leaders in the field
#PREPARED25

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

Reflecting a week on from PREPARED25: a key highlight was GD on the concept of 'Virtuosity' citing @cjmdenny of @Aucklandhems. Performing the common uncommonly well & focusing on basics with absolute attention to detail. A concept that is both obvious to all and also elusive.

Thoroughly enjoyed presenting my poster on the roles that HEMS services provide at MCIs today at the PREPARED25 conference!

[James Yates @heli_med_james]

Fantastic day at #prepared25 in an amazing venue.

A great line up of speakers talking about a multitude of different topics affecting PHEM trainees and PHEM practice

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

We finish with Dr Gareth Davies, a world renowned clinician and pioneer of modern Prehospital Medicine giving a Keynote on his reflections of 30 years at @LDNairamb. #PREPARED25

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

A very special individual, Frank Chege, patient liaison nurse for @LDNairamb gives probably the most important talks of the day - understanding, or maybe reminding us, why we do what we do. We treat human beings. Our patients are not defined by their injury, illness or bed number

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

Captain Jim Green of @GWAAC and @Babcockplc gives a fascinating presentation on "Would I fly with you? The Pilots Perspective". The audience finally getting their helicopter fix for the day. #PREPARED25

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

There is no black and white, @heli_med_james explaining how PHEM is many shades of gray. This leads to the need for:
1) Situational awareness
2) Decision making and prioritisation
3) Leadership
#PREPARED25

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

Next is James Yates @heli_med_james from @GWAAC and @TheResusRoom talking about what he has identified as key qualities of exceptional PHEM trainees.
- Be inquisitive
- Bravery (acknowledge that there will be adversity)
- Emotional Intelligence

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

"The best educational initiative in PHEM is to thoroughly follow-up every patient, and reflect." @gareth_grier lead of the Centre of Excellence at @EHAAT_ on the future of Education for Prehospital clinicians.

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

On simulation: It's time to start reverse engineering our SIM education with a 'pathology first' approach.

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

To start the EMERGE SESSION we have @gareth_grier on "Education in PHEM - An Opportunity for the end
of the beginning?". #PREPARED25

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

Exploring, sharing, questioning and hopefully being curious #PREPARED25

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

It's been an absolute privilege to have Professor Steve Rollnick, the co-founder of Motivation Interviewing, exploring the concept of Imposter Syndrome and what it means for professionals. A captivating and thought provoking session.

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

Dr Alex Cross on being a good trainer: it's not about displaying your skills and knowledge. It's about being honest but kind...compassionately discussing things that don't go well. #PREPARED25

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

ROADMAP theme continues... what is it to be trained? How do we recieve feedback? Dr Alex Cross asks if speciality feedback system is broken? Why is the highest denominator "meets expectation", "adequate", "no concerns"

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

Some key messages from the ROADMAP Session so far: Don't go chasing helicopters, it takes a village to raise a PHEM Doctor, be kind. #PREPARED25

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

ROADMAP SESSION: Kicks off with Dr Dan Watson on the nuts and bolts of what PHEM training looks like and the inside scoop on optimising your application (having ranked 2nd in the country) #PREPARED25

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

Next @DrJEMcK from @ACCESS_London1 speaks about the translation of Critical Care Retrieval fellowships to a future career in PHEM #PREPARED25

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

"Community Emergency Medicine - Right care, in the right place, first time."

[Emerge Medical @Emerge_Medical]

The BUILD session continues with @smitchinson1 describing the opportunities available in Community Emergency Medicine and with the PRU to build a strong foundation of Prehospital skills and experience for a career in PHEM. #prepared25
