Cohort 9 VOSW course over in Lincolnshire today, well done to all our latest VOSW's on a successful induction and skills course.

Our latest VOSW ( volunteer operational support workers ) cohort 9 will be supporting our frontline operations teams across Lincolnshire providing support to enable our 999 teams to deliver excellent patient care.

Also on duty this evening are level 3 responders Mel & Esther, who are currently on standby in #Bolsover, and are available for all calls. Have a good shift guys!

Our team are at Misterton Gala this afternoon, talking to members of our community about what we do, how we support East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust and also demonstrating CPR and using a defibrillator 🙌🏻⚡️⛑️ EMAS Community Response Team

5 days ago I reached my 300th shift for North Northants CFR 💙 East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust & EMAS Community Response Team and on today’s shift I passed my 400th allocation. Giving me a total of 1,145 minutes on call and 2,408.5 miles driven so far. Yes, I really am that much of a spreadsheet nut to track this data!

Each year, roughly 80,000 people suffer an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest – that’s around 200 people every day. 💔 80% of those happen at home. Every minute without CPR and defibrillation reduces the chance of survival by 10%. Don't delay, learn CPR today.

We are delighted to share that we have received #NationalLottery funding from The National Lottery Community Fund to help us get up to 8 more responders on the road and put more Public Access Defibrillators in our local communities! #NationalLottery30. EMAS Community Response Team

When someone has a cardiac arrest, every minute without CPR and defibrillation reduces the chance of survival by 10%. Cardiac arrest can happen anywhere and to anyone. So this Restart A Heart Day, take 5 minutes and learn how to save a life. ❤️ youtu.be/aBy-MjjPtbs?si…
