Today we have Blitzen (named by Sullivan aged 5 from Workington) and his Christmas Tree onboard A025 covering West Cumbria with some of Santa's eleves. Have you been good? Here he is taking a selfie!

Bradley and Teigan on #Ambulance last night were #Amazing! Staying calm in a situation like that is just out of this world. Not many young people would be able to do that. #welldone!

[John McCullough @NWAmb_JohnMcC]

@KateMartinFF Looks like we're all having the same idea! @nwamb_Cumbria

[John McCullough @NWAmb_JohnMcC]

Not only could these simple pieces of equipment be able to identify #sepsis quicker but they are also vital in identifing other possible life threatening conditions.

#HeroNextDoor #couldyoubethedifference?

[Chris Hyde @NWAmb_ChrisH]

We at @NWAmbulance are providing all of our Community First Responders with Tympanic Thermometers and BP Monitors in order to be able to identify #sepsis sooner and make the difference to a #patients life

#WorldSepsisDay is coming up next week.
Sepsis develops quickly and can be fatal. Could you spot it in your child? More info: https://t.co/MpHGHF4XKs

[John McCullough @NWAmb_JohnMcC]

Today marks 3 years since I was treated for #septicshock. Still to this day I suffer with #postsepsissyndrome, trouble sleeping, flashbacks and mood changes. I didn't spot the signs. I left it too long.

Could you spot the sign of #sepsis?

[The UK Sepsis Trust @UKSepsisTrust]

‘They reckon he’s got #sepsis finally, when it’s too late...’ if caught early, Sepsis can be treated. Early recognition and prompt treatment saves lives. Know the signs @itvcorrie

[John McCullough @NWAmb_JohnMcC]

Always a pleasure seeing one of the crews of @NWAirAmbulance doing what they do best!

[Georgia Weaver @gweaver217]

Sepsis took my dad last year, 5 days before he was due to walk me down the aisle! 😢 Don’t forget the sepsis 6... it could save a life! 🚨6️⃣🚨#sepsisawareness #sepsis6 #sepsis @UKSepsisTrust @SepsisUK

[Cumbria Roads Police & Firearms Support Unit. @CumbriaRoadsPol]

A592 closed in the area of Newby Bridge towards Bowness for RTC. Patrols, @CumbriaFire and @NWAmbulance on scene. Official diversion not yet in place, officers will assist where possible

[NWAS Cumbria @nwamb_Cumbria]

One of our crews had the assistance of @Allerdalepolice when they had to press their emergency button earlier today on an incident.

Assault on emergency service staff is not acceptable and will not be tolerated.

[John McCullough @NWAmb_JohnMcC]

Do you really need to ring #999? Have you thought about all the options available to you?

You won't always get an #ambulance. You might get self care advice or directed to another service.

#MakeTheRightCall

[North West Ambulance Service @NWAmbulance]

Unsure whether to call 999?

Have you considered all your options?
