Another article from APP Critical Care London that addresses an area of healthcare that is rarely spoken about. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39628952/

A London critical care paramedic, Alex Wilding, has been discussing the importance of a Stab Check. “It’s never just a flesh wound” and focusing on “getting on with it” but maintaining dignity and gaining consent. Also to “do it again” in hospital

Great work @pike_chelsey @BrowneeNick 👏

Six fundamental beliefs that bias our view of the world: 1. My experience is a reasonable reference. 2. I make correct assessments of the world. 3. I am good. 4. My group is a reasonable reference. 5. My group is good. 6. People's attributes (not context) shape outcomes.

A positive response from Government to the short debate in the House of Lords today, supporting the proposals to enable the prescribing of the 5 specified controlled drugs by paramedic independent prescribers, with changes due to be made to legislation by the end of this year.

We’ve been crafting this episode for a while now and last night it all came together beautifully. Hearing @EdPresswood discussing the intricacies and nuances of end of life care pretty much stopped us in our tracks. This is one not to miss #FOAMed #FOAMems
