@AlleN68094901 @bmj_latest @YorksAmbulance @YASResearch thanks - @alexiskeech and I have had previous conversations with medclair about the development of the technology.

@bmj_latest @alex_diffley @YorksAmbulance @YASResearch Interesting article, regarding nitrous oxide in ambulances, I highly recommend checking out this new technology from Medclair. Collection unit for nitrous oxide in ambulances. medclair.com/en/cu

Paramedics can reduce the #emissions of their fleet by adapting their clinical practice, writes @alex_diffley of @YorksAmbulance @YASResearch bmj.com/content/383/bm…

Even the bmj are posting my opinions now - #impostersyndrome #Paramedics and #netzero: There is much more we can do to decarbonise our fleet - bmj.com/content/383/bm…

Research at Yorkshire Ambulance Service is changing……watch this space. #YASRI #WhyWeDoResearch

Lovely day yesterday, with the whole YAS research team meeting to discuss refreshing our research strategy, plans for the future and our continued development

This is AMAZING.

#PoliticsLive good to see your panel concerns around nitrous oxide as a recreation drug didnt end with the littering of canisters. The drug itself is a potent greenhouse gas. Glad it finally was mentioned towards the end of your debate.

@PeteWaddingham @GreenED_uk Similarly I would be interested to understand your methodology as I am part of a working group of YAS looking to complete similar work for our ambulance service in early 2023.

@GreenED_uk Hi really keen to hear more about this. We are doing some work on medicines and carbon. Be keen to collaborate and chat.

📢Calling All UK EDs📢 please help us work out the environmental footprint of the pharmaceuticals we use in our practice!

@alexiskeech A friend saw some of these in Northampton recently after a few too many 🍻 and thought it was something out of Blade Runner...turned out his mum had bought some bread and milk for the morning 😂

What do you think of this? Across North west Leeds these ‘Starships’ are being trialed by #CoOp

@alexiskeech @wmasjoshmiller @OFFICIALWMAS @GreenerNHS @alexiskeech I have already added it to Bright Ideas/Simply Do so will be raised at next TPG to start ball rolling, please including me in any contacts @wmasjoshmiller

@wmasjoshmiller @OFFICIALWMAS @GreenerNHS Josh would you like to work with YAS to look at the option of reusable sharps bins?

Why are @OFFICIALWMAS sharps boxes changing colour? 🟨 yellow lid ➡️ 🟨 yellow lid 🟨 yellow base ➡️ ⬛ dark base ♻️ it means we can use recycled plastic - which is harder to make in bright colours ♻️

Our #Research #Paramedics Elisha and Dan have been busy this morning packing up our new delivery of #PACKMaN Drugs ready to be sent out to stations this week

I knew I’d wake up to Margaret Atwood trending.

@dc_suspicious Similarly I was missed initially and had to ask for my service history to be reviewed to prove I should have been eligible.

No presentation. Just an email to say that one wasn’t ordered for me after 17 yrs service and I could have one of the spares. Landed on my doorstep this morning. #justanumber #timeforachange?

Evidence living up north is better for your health 🤣- or you're less likely to be harmed by a heatwave, amazing what 1-300 miles further north does! But in all seriousness I doubt many consider the implications of prolonged warm weather in the UK - a sign of what's to come?
