Well, certainly an interesting past few months. Had the air ambulance out for the first time today since starting at WMAS and certainly not been a quiet time.

Looks good, will try it out

Interesting night shift tonight, Part of an ambulance response crew to a plane crash exercise at a major airport for the first part so will certainly be interesting. I'll post more about it later, going to do a case study for it so will share some of that with anyone here that's interested. Also, Taxi drivers in the West Mids are a nightmare, had two try to kill me on the same blue light run..

Was making so many mistakes on camera that it was becoming an embarrassment to the organisation, so was pulled from filming them, and probably safe to assume that further training was offered.

Alot of interesting occurrences, the johnny crew was really good, but the typical treatment from the ambulance service was apparent. There's not enough recognition and respect towards what the ETA crews do and are seen just as a joke by many. Which is completely wrong. I asked the Para that I was working with that day what their impression was, and the first thing they said was their experience of St John was people pretending to be paramedics, and that there's many that have some sort of god complex (Going by what their experience of working along side an SJA crew) I of course explained this wasn't typical and that there's the bad apples in all organisations and that the majority are in it for the right reasons and such. Would say around 90% of the calls I've attended since starting aren't what you typically expect an ambulance service to attend. Mostly the elderly community and social care. Also, since starting, I've only blue light transported 2 patients into A&E, so certainly what the public perceive the service to do, and what they actually do are far different. Also got the inside scoop on why Emergency Bikers don't feature WMAS anymore. Certainly eye opening seeing things from the inside out.

Was working with a St John ETA crew the other day. Slightly weird being with them and in a WMAS uniform, usually the other way around

Give it long enough and i bet it will be on PC. It's a missed opportunity if they don't release at some point.

If i were that HART team leader, I'd sit tight and respond to neither until official coms from EOC say otherwise. Would probably stick the kettle on
