Received the news I’ve officially passed my uni course today & I’m a qualified paramedic! Couldn’t be any happier, the past few years of hard work, stress & tears have been so worth it & I can’t wait to start my career in the new year with a brilliant team🙈🚑🍾🥂#NQP #Paramedic

@Jack_Hughes16 Nothing mentioned unfortunately, here’s hoping there’ll be something on the cards in the future.

Great talk by Dr Phil Cowburn, interesting point made on the limited choice of analgesia available to UK paramedics regarding management of pain in major incidents #FPHC2023

[Caroline Leech @LeechCaroline]

Following motor vehicle collision all patients should be encouraged to self-extricate asap. If not possible, need to create minimum safe space for self/rescuer extrication w/o delay https://t.co/iXsRLOtYYy #FPHC2023

We’ve got a problem with how we treat women - @timnutbeam speaks about studies showing that women are more likely to be trapped, less likely to be treated & half as likely to receive TXA #FPHC2023

While this episode illustrates the result of the actions of the worst of people, what I always love about #DIYSOS is that it reminds me that the best of people will always trump the worst ❤️

@Ste_Story @GB_MRT Think that was just you Ste😂😂

[Abby Farquharson @abi_farquharson]

@GB_MRT I’d just answer their questions as honestly as you can, just be yourself, I got a couple of “what would you do if...” questions (not medical), they aren’t trying to catch you out, so don’t worry!
