Shining a light on our own errors is one of the hardest things to do. Trust me. It shouldn’t be seen as an error, rather a learning opportunity. Stop the molehill becoming a mountain - Own up. Very sad #FitnessToPractice case of a newly qualified solicitor.

Second Friday in a row I've had a call in re. a NHS Ambulance Trust wrongly telling a paramedic to self-refer to the HCPC. PLEASE read the joint CoP/AACE/CLN/PHP poster regarding HCPC self-referral & pop a copy of the noticeboards in your place of work collegeofparamedics.co.uk/COP/Members1/F…

Thrilled to be joining the editorial board of the theBPJ alongside @gregwhitley7 and Caitlin Wilson 🥳 I am looking forward to working with colleagues to build on the journal's fantastic work so far. #Paramedic RGUParamedics @RGUNMandP Robert Gordon University (RGU)

Thanks for all the personal messages of concern for the team. The crew are safe and uninjured. A good reminder of the importance of visors down and aviation emergency of the day training.

Quite! ⬇️ “Paramedic follows initial major incident procedure correctly” would be an accurate headline! #Paramedic #MIMMS #CommandAndControl #BringOrderToChaos North West Ambulance Service BBC News (UK)

For #Paramedics & other HCPC registrants currently in the renewal cycle, here's a helpful blog from the HCPC's Registration Manager - 'The Registration Renewal Process Explained' hcpc-uk.org/news-and-event…

This thread is important. Given how often we are told that the regulatory process must inspire confidence (usually when regulators demands that a Panel makes findings of misconduct or impairment), this rather takes the biscuit, eats it, licks up the crumbs and burns the wrapper.

I am so #ProudToBeAParamedic. Happy International Paramedics Day to all my colleagues around the world impacting health today and everyday - irrespective of their role! #NotAllParamedicsWearGreen RGUParamedics #InternationalParamedicsDay #IPD2022 #ProudToBeAParamedic

Fantastic to see the recognition from ⁦Resuscitation Council UK⁩ that in-hospital courses aren’t suited to prehospital care. We need specific courses targeted to the unique challenges we face in the environment in which we operate
