These numbers aren’t just statistics — they’re people. Colleagues. Teams. Workplaces under pressure.

Interesting read on pursed lip breathing ...

The College has a new publication in the Journal of International Paramedic Practice. Each edition, JIPP asks CoROM to submit an article on a topic related to remote and offshore medicine. This time, it is on Pursed-lip Breathing and why Remote Medics need to be good at this.

Thanks to Aebhric OKelly for creating this journal article.
