[A Journey Through Transfer Medicine @NclActs]

Today NCL-Acts has conducted its last ever transfer shift. By tomorrow we’ll be gone….

Many of us will be joining the fantastic new Pan-London team at @ACCESS_London1.

But for now at least it’s goodbye from us at @NclActs!
Thanks for all the support! #OneTeam

@ACCESS_London1 @Ldn_Ambulance We've been privileged to work with so many outstanding partners and clinicians and have clocked in thousands of critical transfers since our inception. We'll be joining forces with the rest of London to deliver @ACCESS_London1 so follow us there to stay in touch! #retrieval

[NECCTAR Team @NECCTARTeam]

And that's a wrap from us at NECCTAR - onwards and upwards as we join the ACCESS @Access_London1 Team to deliver critical transfer for all of NEL, NCL, NWL, SWL, and SEL in partnership with @Ldn_Ambulance. Follow ACCESS for ongoing critical transfer news! https://t.co/y6znfcqBJa

@DrPaulRees @teamaccu @NECCTARTeam @BartsHospital @NHSBartsHealth @BartsResusTeam Thanks!

❤️ working in a team which challenges dogma of pts being "too sick to transfer".

@NECCTARTeam is well-governed, well-led & designed to complement teams like those you mentioned. The whole system came together v well to provide more clinical options for this v sick pt 👍

[Paul Rees @DrPaulRees]

Really great collaboration from @teamaccu and @NECCTARTeam and especially @MattSnowsill - managing to bring a very poorly patient across to us @BartsHospital - @NHSBartsHealth - proud to be part of a great team… @BartsResusTeam

"COVID" + "Transfers" are 2 words healthcare professionals don't like putting together! Patient factors, difficult airways, challenging ventilation & environmental concerns make it all...challenging 🤯

Thanks to all transfer services for helping decompress hospitals!

Our substantive nurse Aldeen is now discussing some of the high fidelity simulation that she has been providing to our teams during downtime #upskilling #simulation #MedEd

[NECCTAR Team @NECCTARTeam]

Welcome along to NECCTAR's clinical governance day! We're here at the Royal London Hospital @RoyalLondonHosp @BH__Academy for today's day, which is themed around unusual transfers and communication #governance #retrieval

[NECCTAR Team @NECCTARTeam]

After a learning lunch, we now have our registrar Simon Hawkins discussing a motor neurone disease patient transfer with unique communication needs and complex logistics #communication #criticalcare

[NECCTAR Team @NECCTARTeam]

We're pleased to be able to share our work in the Journal of @ICS_updates from SOA! We've published four different items underscoring our data-driven service development and delivery with the help of our partners at the @economics_unit #retrival

@TotalResus We use a Tempus Pro for our monitor (but in these pictures, it's a simulation monitor linked to sim control) and FK Agilia MC pumps x4 in a rack.

[NECCTAR Team @NECCTARTeam]

In our downtime, NECCTAR runs its critical care duty teams through high fidelity in-situ simulations to keep their skills sharp. We use scenarios to share our learning across teams and devise solutions to complex problems to constantly improve our care #criticalcare #retrieval

[NECCTAR Team @NECCTARTeam]

It's a pleasure & privilege to offer our specialist critical care transport and retrieval services to North East London & beyond - thank you for ongoing support @critical_wx @teamaccu @NewhamICU @AccuSbh @HUHgas @BhrAnaesthetic @NHS_NELondon @NELHCP @LAS_NorthEast @NHSBartsHealth

"Under pressure, you don't rise to the occasion, you sink to the level of your training. That's why we train so hard."

Wise words and an ideal to live up to, and we at NECCTAR are grateful to @Barts_Charity for the tools needed for this. Thank you for your generous support.

[NECCTAR Team @NECCTARTeam]

And after lunch we had a talk about a complex neuro retrieval requiring advanced critical care support by @itariq14 and then a service wrapup by @JonathonDean and @drmamoun01 - thank you all for coming along and see you next time!

[NECCTAR Team @NECCTARTeam]

We're here at @RoyalLondonHosp @BH__Academy for NECCTAR's JULY Governance Day! Our first speaker is @DrJEMcK who is presenting the start of NECCTAR's major incident response policy. We're anticipating a heatwave and increasing environmental effects on business continuity

[NECCTAR Team @NECCTARTeam]

And now @sj_shepherd is delivering a masterclass in distal airway obstruction. @BartsHospital is a tertiary centre for these sorts of cases and we're lucky to have such expertise as part of our @NECCTARTeam #sharedlearning
