Downtime between patients on tonight's event has been the perfect opportunity for a bit of teaching and the chance for everyone on the team to go over the basics. A wide range of experience and clinical skill sets on duty have given some excellent discussion points too
Did you know there's a First Aid society directly associated with @stjohnambulance right on campus at UEA? Students, staff and alumni are all welcome to join and we've got some basic first aid community outreach sessions planned this Spring too. #Askme how you can learn First Aid
Had a pretty traumatic experience while out today but was in a position to try and help someone who desperately needed it. Iโm absolutely ok, but just want to encourage anyone who can to get themselves on a First Aid (or refresher) course: https://t.co/u4ZxbbbsI4 @stjohnambulance
It's always nice to know that an unwell patient had a good outcome, it's even better when they bring you a cake with your faces on to say thank you for looking after them! Well done and thank you to everyone that's been on duty for @stjohnambulance so far this year! ๐
Our volunteers had a BANGing fireworks weekend recently, with multiple groups on duty all across Norfolk getting to see lots of brilliant displays. Always a pleasure as well to work alongside some of the brilliant @SJANorfolk cadets @SJAYouthEng ๐๐๐
It's #UEAOpenDay which means our team are on duty to keep everyone safe as they explore campus! Keep an eye out for Katie, Sam and Liam and feel free to ask them about life at @uniofeastanglia ๐
Thanks to everyone that came along to our first taster session last night. It was brilliant to see so many people learning how to do CPR and put someone in the recovery position! We hope you enjoyed it as much as us and we'll see you next week for taster session 2 ๐
What a great start to the year! ๐ It was amazing to meet so many people at Societies Fair and MEDMart and we can't wait to see you at our Taster Session on Monday ๐

It's come to our attention that some people don't like our Pride vehicles.
Let us be clear, St John Ambulance is an organisation for all. No matter your race or religion, your gender identity or who you love, we will continue be there in the moments that matter ๐ #SJAPride
An excellent day of coastal support in Great Yarmouth and some brilliant interagency working with @RNLI @GorlestonCRT and @EastEnglandAmb
An awesome team on shift too and always a pleasure to support @NHSNWCCG
@TheED_PDN @uniofeastanglia If you ever have the time it would be amazing to have you teach a session to our student volunteering unit (and we have wide variety of patient presentations in the on campus student club if you wanted to do some clinical bits too ๐)
