"Instant" #COVID19 antibody home tests have proved too unreliable for adoption by NHS. First "CE approved" antibody test from @RocheDiaUK is to be available soon in their UK in their Labs. Obtaining blood sample for this test is also @CQCProf regulated activity 2 of 2
The first hint of a cautious return to work already "unregistered" companies offering Covid 19 testing to film & TV. The CQC clarified swab testing is a regulated activity i,e, only by CQC registered lnkd.in/gFudnK4 1 of 2
Huge shame @rewindfestval North is cancelled. This tough call was made in consultation with all the safety and operational leads & was definitely the right one. We've covered 16 Rewinds in all weathers but this is extreme and safety would have been compromised. #rewindnorth
Also in #scotland@locationmedical covered the 100K @bhf Glasgow to Edingburgh Trek last weekend (with the help of trusted local partners). Well done to all the sore footed finishers - great sums raised for a great charity! #g2etrek#bhf@BHFScotland
@LocationMedical are pleased to be providing an ambulance & crew to support @LTCFC1928 London Taxi Drivers Charity for Children Annual convoy to #Southend special needs and disadvantaged children and their carers. A really great event loved by all the kids! #lftuc#ltcfc1928
L M S Paramedics & ambulance staff are proud to be supporting colleagues from the @BritishRedCross , @stjohnambulance & @SCAS999 at #RoyalAscot2019 this week. With over 300000 visitors its big operation only achievable by great multi agency planning and #teamwork.
Busy couple of weeks for our friends @TheBHF events team. Last weekend was the awesome #Costwoldsbikeride. Yesterday was the iconic #HadriansWall Trek. Well done to all the participants on both, LMS providing medical cover for both in partnership with trusted local providers.
Huge respect to the 15 000 bra-clad trekkers that completed 26 miles of Nocturnal Central London on #moonwalklondon this weekend. A vast sum raised for cancer charities @WalktheWalk . Team of 37 @locationmedical staff there all night Night. A lot of coffee consumed!
Great to work on @richardashcroft gig in @olympia_london this week. First music concert there for 8 years - and it rocked. Lets hope the firs of many...
Good to see that the "significant risk" posed to patients at events (& film sets by) unregulated medics is acknowledged in the @CareQualityComm's "The state of care in independent ambulance services" report - perhaps time to actually do something about it? tinyurl.com/yyhqddcv
@LocationMedical were also back at the @N_CyclingCentre in Manchester all weekend covering the Fabulous @sixdaycyclingSix track cycling events. Some really exciting cycling with a great atmosphere - a real treat for track cycling fans & a great event to work on! #sixdaymanchster
Another busy weekend for @locationmedical - Well done to the thousands of cyclists that completed the @TheBHF#LondontoReading Cycle Ride - Another great BHF event for a great cause that we're pleased to support - including hosting the event control center in the LMS offices!
@LocationMedical are thrilled to have won the contract to provide medical services to @THEbhf running, walking, swimming & cycling #bhfevents nationwide. We look forward to working to deliver safe, successful BHF events from Scotland to Kent & raising funds for a great cause.
