Community defib training at the weekend

Dear All,

We hope that you have all had a happy and healthy Christmas and New Year!

Here at Basic Life Support Consultancy, we have 4 trainers that deliver our first aid courses, of those 4 trainers 3 of us are also front-line medics. I am a Paramedic working for our local Ambulance Trust and responding from home for the charity Suffolk Accident Rescue Service. Having spoken with my colleagues about the situations they are facing and following the Government’s announcement on Monday. We as a company have decided to cancel some of our upcoming open first aid training courses.

This is not in keeping with our Governing Bodies advice, they believe that with the measures we have in place we are safe to continue, we do not feel comfortable with this advice given the current state of our A&E’s, a huge percentage of admissions are now COVID-19 patients, this new variant is obviously so much more transmissible.

With everybody being told to work from home where possible, to only travel when necessary and the schools being closed to most of the population it seems wrong to bring a group of people together for open training, we are still happy to come into a workplace and train for a single employer.

We are therefore cancelling the following courses

First Aid at Work – 3-day 13th – 15th January

Paediatric First Aid – Bury St. Edmunds 23rd & 30th January

Emergency First Aid at Work 29th January

Paediatric First Aid – Haverhill 6th & 13th February

Emergency First Aid at Work 24th February

First Aid at Work Requalification – 2 day 24th & 25th February

I hope you can understand. If you have any queries, please let me or Emma know.

Stay safe!

Steve Murrow

One of Steve's patients making a name for himself in the world of racing, well done Ollie Handley!

A TEENAGE racing prodigy has thanked medics who put him on the road to recovery after a terrifying crash which left him fearing he may lose his leg.

Steve's post on Facebook recently 'Those that know me have commented how I often don't get affected doing my job.
Did a resus today, getting the husband to kiss and hold his wife as we loaded her into the ambulance alive but critical.
Seeing his tears roll down his face, listening to his last words to her broke my heart.
She, on arrival to hospital gave up her fight. The team working hard to get her back unsuccessful. I now know that poor man is going to get the worst news ever in his life.
My message here is, that man could be you, the people ignoring the advice given to stay in. I feel broken today 😢'
