Training

All our Clinicians have a complete set of GWO qualifications to allow them to climb any asset in the field. In addition we provide our clinicians with full STCW training allowing them to act as vessel crew.

Pre-written tool-box talks ensure vessel crew and PAX alike are all briefed to support the Paramedic in making a prompt response to an incident.

Where required our Clinicians have IRATA Rope Access & Confined Spaces training.

Equipment

On deployment each clinician has a full array of equipment at their disposal, the kit has been put together to provide the clinician with the required resources to treat, manage and care for any conceivable scenario. Equipment is stored in cases and bags complete with a dedicated lift bag to ensure a rapid unhindered response.

Equipment carried can be adapted to site requirements.

Our Clinicians carry the same level of equipment that you would find on a frontline ambulance.

Control

All equipment is logged on a date sensitive spreadsheet alerting us to expiring items initially giving six months’ notice something needs replacing.

Weekly, shift change, and monthly checks are carried out and recorded digitally.

Governance

Clinical governance is defined as “A framework through which NHS organisations are accountable for continuously improving the quality of their services and safe-guarding high standards of care by creating an environment in which excellence in clinical care will flourish. It's often thought of in terms of the seven pillars of clinical governance—clinical effectiveness, risk management, patient experience and involvement, communication, resource effectiveness, strategic effectiveness, and learning effectiveness.
