A 2min read but vital for all ambulance staff.

How often do we consider the bystanders experience of providing CPR?

Taking the time to thank them for their input and check their welfare can be invaluable for them. They are the first link in the chain!

On the 1st day of xmas the SGEM gave to me...a P-value in a pear tree.

The P value of frequentists statistics —often misunderstood and frequently abused.

The key here is remembering that a P value isn’t proof of the “truth”...

Great work from a great team!
Great to see our paper published in the British Paramedic Journal this month.

The article formed part of our work in developing and refining the #OHNLS course.

Unbelievably gratifying to see such positive results which will hopefully translate to better care for #babies born out of hospital
