Hampshire Fire & Rescue Service - Blue Light Collaboration @Hants_fire @HFRSHealthAsset #TRiM







A young woman who suffered a cardiac arrest while working out is calling for simple, life-saving devices to be rolled out in every gym. The 21-year-old was kept alive by quick-thinking staff. #7News


















Fantastic guest lecture at #bgsconf by @DrJohnBeard on how we might promote healthy ageing for all - a key part will be tools for the early detection of age-related loss of physical and cognitive function. This is a shift in thinking but could have major benefits for society.


Agree. Much in common in the ethos of the fire service and Geriatrics. (Go where the need is, work in teams, tackle complex problems; some grim humour, high job satisfaction.) Much less risky for us of course.Lots of opportunity for collaboration around population ageing.

Fire and rescue service visits for over 65’s include fire safety, falls risk assessment (with GP referral if warranted) and fuel poverty review #BGSconf
