Is there REALLY any benefit to chest compressions in a pulseless trauma patient?

I don’t mean “maybe he had a heart attack & crashed his car”

You can’t make the pump work if all the blood is gone… and compressions interfere with the other things you need to do!

• Firefighters don’t get subsidised food for saving lives
• Nurses don’t get free parking for saving lives
• Doctors don’t free travel for saving lives
• Teachers don’t free energy for teaching children

Tory MPs refusing cost of living pay rises, get the lot.

I intend to strike on Wednesday. I love my job and I want to look after my patients. The moral dilemma over whether to strike is pretty overwhelming, I have spent the last 3 days off anxious about the implication of striking and about going to work in terrible conditions 1/4

How I smashed my OSCE exams!

Here is my step by step process that I use to enter an OSCE with confidence.

1. Understand the theory behind it.
2. Watch a perfect example.
3. Carry out Mental rehearsals.
4. Practice 1-2 times Max per day.
5. Self Reflect
6. Go & Smash it.

Pay our nurses more. Stop making them pay for parking at work. Create proper rest areas for them. See their hard work and make them feel valued. It’s not hard. We are haemorrhaging.
