Do you know what to do in an emergency 🆘Medical emergencies can be stressful enough but being asked to deal with one at 35,000ft in the air has another meaning! It was something that I wasn’t expecting to be doing whilst on my way to my holiday destination but I was glad I was on that flight meaning I could give care to the person who needed it! Luckily they had the majority of the equipment I needed to help me and the patient before handing over to the paramedics on the ground! So having the right training from a trusted provider with experience can strengthen your learning and prepare you to act in an emergency no matter where you are. ❤️ to find out more visit www.fullaidmedical.co.uk

👁️ spy with my little 👁️ something beginning with ‘A’ That’s right I spotted an AED (automatic external defibrillator) here in Burnham on Sea close to the beach, did you know it was here? Why not download an app onto your device to help you locate one if required in an emergency? When it comes to finding defibrillators, especially in the UK, there are a few key options that are widely recommended. It’s important to remember that in an emergency, you should always call 999 immediately, as the ambulance service can also direct you to the nearest defibrillator.

* Defib Finder (British Heart Foundation): This is a web-based tool (defibfinder.uk) that uses data from The Circuit: the National Defibrillator Network, which is funded and managed by the British Heart Foundation (BHF) in partnership with the Resuscitation Council UK, St John Ambulance, and the Association of Ambulance Chief Executives.

* GoodSAM Alerter: This app connects individuals in need with the nearest registered responders (including those trained in CPR and AED use) and provides a map of AED locations.

Important Considerations:
* Accuracy: All these apps and databases rely on users and owners registering and updating defibrillator information. Therefore, the accuracy can vary, and a defibrillator might have been recently deployed or its location/availability may have changed.
* Emergency Use: While these apps are invaluable tools, remember that calling 999 is always the first step in a cardiac arrest emergency. The ambulance service will be able to provide the most up-to-date information and guide you.
* Accessibility: Some defibrillators might be located inside buildings with limited access hours. The apps generally try to provide this information.

CPR saves lives! Well done to those who passed their level 3 award in emergency 🚨 first aid at work yesterday! Learning first aid is an invaluable skill that can empower you to respond effectively in emergency situations and potentially save lives. First aid involves understanding how to provide immediate care to someone who is injured or experiencing a sudden illness. Key components include learning how to perform CPR, treat cuts and burns, manage choking, and stabilize fractures. To get started, consider enrolling in a certified first aid course offered by FullAidMedical These courses typically combine theoretical knowledge with hands-on practice, ensuring you develop the confidence and competence needed to act calmly and efficiently in an emergency.

Often at the beginning of any of our courses I ask each student to write down what their biggest fear would be if having to deal with a medical emergency 🚨 I then save their answers and at the end of the course I go through each scenario with them hoping that by attending the course they have gained some confidence, I think this is a good way of understanding your students fears and working it through with them and others can learn too. Also here is some amazing feedback from some staff at our local hospice! We have bookings available from July so please get in touch and will be running an open course at the end of the summer ☀️

It’s been a busy week leading up to the bank holiday weekend, we trained some more staff at our local hospice, and spent 2 days in Cardiff for staff at a school in order for them to complete their first aid at work re qualification so a big well done to everybody!

When treating wounds and you come across a foreign object remember not to remove it!

You should generally never remove a foreign object that is impaled in a wound for several critical reasons:
* Potential for Severe Bleeding: The impaled object may be acting as a plug, stemming significant blood loss from damaged arteries, veins, or organs. Removing it can cause rapid, uncontrolled hemorrhage, leading to severe blood loss or even death.
* Further Damage to Tissues and Organs: The object may have caused internal damage on its way in, and pulling it out can cause even more trauma to nerves, muscles, blood vessels, and internal organs. The path it took may be irregular, and its removal could tear or puncture structures that were initially spared.
* Increased Risk of Infection: While an impaled object introduces bacteria, removing it improperly can worsen the contamination or create a larger opening for more pathogens to enter.
* Difficulty Locating and Treating Injuries: Leaving the object in place allows medical professionals to understand the depth, direction, and potential trajectory of the injury. This information is crucial for assessing internal damage and planning the safest and most effective surgical removal. Removing it blindly at the scene makes this assessment much harder.
* Risk of Shock: Further injury and blood loss can worsen a person's condition and increase the likelihood of them going into shock.

By giving CPR a go, you are giving someone their best chance of survival.

Performing high quality CPR is always our goal, but any CPR can still help save a life.

Taking action, even if it’s not perfect, is better than no action.
