Lots of analysis & opinion on the complex issue of ambulance handover delays. The busiest (by far) ED for North West Ambulance Service is East Lancs NHS. Claire Hey is the ED Lead Nurse and says “it’s simple, we don’t hold ambulances”.

⚖ Mark Damian Harrison, 45 from Salford, shouted racial slurs at a North West Ambulance Service paramedic in August last year after being transported to Salford Royal Hospital for treatment following an injury. He was jailed for 8 weeks, which was uplifted from 6 weeks for racial aggravation.

First day for almost 100 students about to start working across GM for North West Ambulance Service. Genuine highlight for me - given the sheer capability and dedication in that room.

Been at numerous talks & presentations in my career. Genuinely can’t remember such a humorous, poignant yet powerful talk delivered by College of Paramedics Tracy Nickell You rarely get to choose your leaders but you can choose who to follow. Will work out how I can be a better follower
