@NewMetPC1 C1/D1 & PSU on permit

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@SC__Dan @abbdesmond Out of curiosity, what did you arrest for? I can think of a few offences but all have specific circs to be in play?

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@WecopsCaroline @merpolchiefcon Are you on Instagram?

MDP Dietician; has some great stuff….

@ItsWeary As said; no defence, found by police, I assume on BWV?, GAP.

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@DrDerrickTin Depends on environment, risk & audience really; personal kits of vehicle? need to be competent & governed in kit use. Glow sticks aren’t that great imo & I’d be dubious about the survival blanket too.

@ps_met Happy to chat on DM

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@DrDerrickTin Keep it realistic. If your docs aren’t going to be an initial response in real life, don’t make them so for an Ex.
Get other agencies involved & let them do what they would do, not pretend they’re unable for the benefit of your docs.
Use real life ‘casualties’ & bystanders.

@AnotherTweetCop I still remember the pain, vividly!

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@TJQ73 Awesome news, we’ll done!

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@ross_moy @PoliceMedics Evening @ross_moy, as many have already replied; yes; in certain elements of some forces. To my knowledge no force has it rolled out / trained for use by all of its officers.

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@Para_Medic10 @PoliceMedics @dcbrnc Have you looked at Lydd? Decent enough range of buildings / environment; not sure re vehicles mind.

@PoliceMedics You mean an expensive poor quality replica? 🤔

[Police Medics @PoliceMedics]

Over five years ago we started our social media, website and a small amount of merchandise to build awareness of the #PoliceMedic role amongst other pre-hospital responders and our colleagues, and therefore improve interoperability and deliver joined-up casualty care.

#TacMini21 give away! We have a really nice goodie bag from our friends at @BremontMilitary @Bremont & #SnigelDesign ). Super cool cufflinks & the Snigel trauma pouch https://t.co/k69iWINUEd To be in the draw RT & check out @DUSTOFF_Podcast , @ChrisRyanPod & @TheEmergMind

@078Ian @toby_MCC99 @ATACCGroup @ATACCFaculty With the myriad of first aid / prehospital care / “medic” courses available for anyone to sign up to, why would a force elect to recognise them, and by virtue take responsibility for content / delivery they’ve had no sight of? It’s a governance nightmare 🤯

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@078Ian @toby_MCC99 @ATACCGroup @ATACCFaculty Why would they? Having done the course it’s clinically advanced & way above our scope; as a cop you’ll amaze yourself with how you shine in scene management aspects & the basic technical skills, but we’re unlikely to ever be near the level of technical skill taught here.

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@dpm2blue It’s all about sharepoint nowadays.

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@hut_lucy @_DF42 @mattmoore999 @HaldenHB @ICS_updates @HoldsterTM @Obidoc @d0ct0revil Pretty sure it’s in the loft if anyone wants it...... yellow never really was my colour 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@DrOatibix @keatingteam1 I’ll disagree on that; D13 sets out a list of skills; there’s no kit list.

[Medic Cop @MedicCop]

@DrOatibix @keatingteam1 What is this recommended kit list you talk off? There’s a menu of skills & then down to force governance to decide what’s taught & issued. Airway management can be as simple as a jaw thrust through to iGels.
