YAS CFR, North Yorkshire and The Dales Investing in Volunteers - Proud to be accredited

We achieved the UK quality standard for good practice in supporting volunteers.

For further information visit: https://iiv.investinginvolunteers.org.uk/ The Community First Responder (CFR) scheme is a life-saving partnership between Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust (YAS) and local communities. As authorised volunteers for YAS, Community First Responders form teams located in communities across Yorkshire as part of a wider initiative which aims to help reduce the number of pre-hospital deaths in Yorkshire. New recruits will join hundreds of volunteers living in local communities across the region who are trained to provide life-saving treatment to residents in their area in the vital first minutes of an emergency until our ambulance clinicians arrive. YAS is committed to providing the high quality services to and care to all those living in, or passing through, Yorkshire and this initiative undoubtedly helps to achieve this. North Yorkshire

I love the diversity of my job, tonight I was asked to support Firefighters from Colburn Fire Station North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service, with some BLS refresher. If you follow this page, you will know I love hands on realistic and confidence building training!

After a classroom refresher, bob had clasped on some scaffolding and once the crew had got to him, they had to assess, steam bleeds, work in a tight space, perform CPR and then a secondary survey, finding some more injuries.

Quality training is important and my team at YAS are passionate we deliver just that, no matter who we are training with!

Do you want to work with the fire service as a retained firefighter ?

Do you want to be a Volunteer Community First Responder with Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust

We are looking for people who are confident, caring, compassionate and hard-working; you will be as passionate as we are about making a positive difference to the people of Yorkshire.
