This morning we met a cardiac arrest survivor who has made a full recovery. It was so lovely to catch up, answer some questions and see how she has been getting on. Good bystander CPR is so so important in achieving a positive outcome (shared with patient’s permission)
@susiu @NWAmb_RichM I’m sure we can sort that with @StevenS_NW and happy to discuss the MTS training our road staff are receiving with you too- follow me and then we can DM :)
@susiu @NWAmb_RichM Numerous similarities and differences- this discussion could be lengthy, in the context of this training, MTS by paramedics pre-hospital rather than once in A+E can open up alternative, more appropriate options other than conveyance, saving A+E resources for those who need them
Rewarding results of some hard work. Really enjoyable working with a group of ambulance clinicians so open to challenging old ‘norms’ and doing the right thing by their patients #culturechange
Really #proud of our staff who are embracing change to benefit patients! Utilising @Bridgewater_NHS community multi-disciplinary team has resulted in 247 less patients being taken to @WWLNHS during Aug 18 than Aug 17. A fantastic result for patients!! 🏥🚑
@NWAmb_RichM @rebekah_holden@Mack120 @AndyOrmy The urgent care development team, alongside some local champions, will deliver training to all of the paramedics across NWAS
Excited to be rolling out training in frailty alongside the MTS training. Highlighting to our clinicians the importance of selecting the right care at the right time in the right place for our patients every time!
Discussing improving community management of patients with long term conditions.......and having a play with this snazzy piece of kit.... @_Jennylea#activecasemanagement
Putting our pathways to the test today while operational in Wigan.......caring for our patients in the right place @KHart727 @Bridgewater_NHS @NWAmb_Jon @JPennington999 @Michelle73_OT @moreencorbett
Excited to hear that we’ve referred 18 patients today to our new Community referral team! That’s huge.... and it means that patients are getting the right care in the right place!! So pleased..... how many can we refer tomorrow???
@KHart727 @Bridgewater_NHS @NWAmbulance@maud_larkin@moreencorbett @Michelle73_OT @JulieCummins11 Amazing integrated working in the community supporting older people to stay in their homes and receive out of hospital care. Great working between NWAS, ICS, WWL, GP,s and Bedford care home . The teams should be extremely proud of themselves. This is truly the deal in action.
