Wanted to quickly share two stories about our medics.
Story 1: Off-Duty Medic Saves a Life at a Big Event
One of our lower North Island medics attended a large event as a participant on Saturday. Just 30 minutes before her part of the event started, she witnessed a cardiac arrest. She started CPR until the ambulance arrived. No AED was available, but later, she was made aware the patient was alive and getting treatment at the hospital!
Story 2: Medic Responds to a Good Samaritan Call on the Way to an Event
Earlier today, one of our medics got a Good Samaritan call while heading to cover an event. The location was just 500 meters away! CPR was in progress, several shocks delivered, and by the time he left, the patient was awake and fully conscious (GCS 15).
These stories show the dedication and care our medics have for their community, on and off duty.

Promed EMS Trust was started in response to the growing need for Event Medics. We used the profit of our training business Pro+Med NZ Ltd to fund the rapidly emerging market for Event Medics.
Event Medic Services has to stand on its own, as we βcompeteβ with charitable organisations it was decided we would start a Charitable Trust ourselves and access available funding bodies to purchase equipment and also assist training Not For Profit organisations who seek training and advice.
