@CianSOBrien Safeevents.ie have some short courses.... Maybe too late but might have something. They are the only one I have come across. Solid experience in events of all sizes

Any recommendations for short courses on event management / event control ? Please and thank

@Crickie2 I can understand your concerns, but the NAS helicopter isn't an hour away from Foynes and it provides a higher clinical level of care for the patient. I don't see how R115 would have added to the patient care in this situation? Not sure "NAS incompetence" is warranted?

Was updated on our simply brilliant “Wish Ambulance” last night where our people volunteer time to enable forever memories for terminally ill patients and their families as they approach the end of life. It’s this stuff we all join for - to make a real difference when it counts. ❤️

Huge congratulations to our Paramedic Intern, Ríona, who led her team to secure the top spot at the All-Ireland Interprofessional Education Conference (AIPEC)!🎉 Her outstanding achievement reflects the incredible calibre of our student paramedics and the bright future ahead.

“Paramedicine is not just a profession — it’s a collective calling.” – Tracy Nicholls, CEO, College of Paramedics This International Paramedics Day on the 8th July, we celebrate Unity and Community, the vital partnerships between paramedics and the people they serve.

I have a reputation as an expert resuscitation team leader. But there is a dirty secret that needs to be acknowledged. The true expert team leaders you should seek out and learn from don't look like me.
