Right #Police Twitter, have any of you serving officer #academic types published?? Need to pick your brains before committing to something please! Caroline @EmWilliamsCCCU

EMedTox 🙂 Matt Sztajnkrycer @FisherAD1 Also the data seems to be saying on civilian side, at least at mass casualty, very few are dying from lack of TQ. Need better data from non MCIs but maybe spending millions so everyone is within a few feet of a TQ isn’t money well spent

So much focus on tourniquets in certain area of policing, yes they’re necessary, but are they the answer to everything that some see them to be?

And here we have my next point that’s bound to cause just as much controversy..... do chest seals have any benefit over leaving the wound open?

Having met the Queensland Police Tactical First Aid Project team this week my fingers are firmly crossed for them at World Class Policing Awards tonight! #PoliceMedic

Well deserved!

First full set of 2020 shifts complete; hopefully not an indication of what’s in store for the year ahead, yet strangely ‘enjoyably’ busy!

One point to share with Police colleagues; when there’s someone injured & the ambulance arrives, the priority really isn’t blocking them from driving into your scene or standing right by their door to get their call sign for your log. There are more important things going on.

I’m not one to swear on Twitter but the profanity aside, the sentiment is spot on.

A rare opportunity of being able to drop in on other ATACC Faculty stations, always a great opportunity to learn from the wide skill & experience brought by faculty members #ATACC

Whilst many police services have issued updated guidance on CPR, mine for one has only stated compression only where you suspect COVID. No guidance around listening / feeling for breath.

Well that was a long day.....
