When your at your stby point in the dead of night and two pricks pull up at the side of you... Lock doors, emergency button at the ready...

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

Do you ever have one of those shifts where you think "I'm sure this is the beginning of a zombie apocalypse"....The joys of weekend nights.

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

You know you've had a proper job when blood ends up all over the ambulance..including on the ceiling. #majortrauma

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

A definite pattern emerged in last nights shift.....and it wasn't even a full moon. Guys in green will know exactly what I mean.

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

@spara4042 Ha, absolutely! 😆

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

Job today to a very disgusting flat, the kind you need to wipe your boots clean on the way out. How do people live like that?

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

Respect to all the emergency services working today. Stay safe, keep cool, and drink plenty water. #hottestdayoftheyear

Don't be fooled, legal highs can be addictive, we can only treat the symptoms because we don't know what's in them #999whatsyouremergency

@NicolsonAlex final BM was 7.3mmol. Pt was left with a relative and was given advice to prevent reoccurring events. I can see your point 😊

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

@NicolsonAlex the pt wasn't left at home until I was satisfied a more than sufficient amount of oral slow release carbs were consumed.

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

Hypoglycaemic patient, BM of 0.7mmol. Unable to gain IV access so used glucagon. Left him happy at home. Love these jobs. Living the dream!

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

Telling someone that their partner has died is not a nice way to start my shift. We have 1 life. Live it to the full and have no regrets...

[North West Ambulance Service @NWAmbulance]

#999whatsyouremergency showed the importance of good #CPR thats why we're hosting #RestartAHeartDay for schools! https://t.co/KkNywewOIh

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

A day of mind numbing jobs makes me more tired than a day of serous jobs. Mainly GP admissions, which to be honest do not require A&E! WTF??

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

Respect to all the call handlers/dispatchers in EOC. It's nice seeing the other side of our job. #999whatsyouremergency

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

5 very poorly patients in the past 2 shifts. 3 of them were time critical. Controlled drugs administered. Still and ambulance driver?

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

Well all I can say is myself and my crew mate has made 1 resus dept very busy today before lunch! #properjobsallday

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

A night of picking up people who can't handle their ale. Know your limits!!!! #DrinkResponsibly

[London Ambulance Service @Ldn_Ambulance]

Have a good time if you're out on the town this bank holiday, but not on us. Please drink responsibly & #useuswisely

[Graduate_Paramedic @amboservice]

Seeing the sun rise over the town gives me a great sense of joy....that my shift is nearly over #imshattered
