Super pleased to have accepted a role with @unilincoln as a lecturer in paramedic science. Part time so I will still be doing clinical shifts but this is a very exciting time! @UoL_Paramedics

[Jen Goodwin (Jackson) @jenniferrrmay]

It’s no secret that 10 years ago I was a very anxious, worried clinician battling huge imposter syndrome. So grateful to now have enough knowledge & experience to help students who are going through similar feelings.

@TM5006941 @ParamedicsUK Hi! I do still work on an ambulance in the NHS and have done for 10 years, I do both roles☺️ I believe this series is about highlighting the non-traditional roles paras can do as there’s loads that nobody knows about!

‘As long as their hands are in the right place they can straddle me if it means getting a ROSC’

[Triple 9 First Aid @triple9firstaid]

There are a lot of problems with the first aid training industry, one being you can have 0 clinical background & teach it. BUT, today I saw a trainer ask in a group if she should report another trainer because they were demonstrating CPR from the head end rather than kneeling…

[Triple 9 First Aid @triple9firstaid]

At the side of the mannequin…
HOW can you teach BLS and not know that kneeling at the head is perfectly fine? HOW do they think we manage an airway as a long responder? WHY would you want to report a colleague?

I really wanted to comment and say…

[Triple 9 First Aid @triple9firstaid]

There are over 5 million people in the UK living with diabetes. @diabetesuk are campaigning for more research & better care for people living with diabetes.💙

[Triple 9 First Aid @triple9firstaid]

It’s #WorldDiabetesDay and spreading awareness is key! Would you know the signs of type 1 diabetes in your child or someone undiagnosed? Just remember the 3 T’s! 🧵 #paramedic #firstaid #firstaidtraining #firstaidcourse

🥤 Thirsty - Are they always thirsty & unable to quench their thirst? Do they always ask for a drink or finish drinks really quickly?

[Triple 9 First Aid @triple9firstaid]

🕴🏻Thinner - Are they losing weight without trying? Do they look thinner than normal suddenly?

[Triple 9 First Aid @triple9firstaid]

🛏️ Tired - Are they sleeping more than usual, laying in or napping a lot? Do they have less energy?
