As we embrace evolution within paramedicine practice,is it time to make it easier for paramedics to practice in countries of their choice? What is your take on this?

It's Paramedic Services Week, and I'd like to acknowledge all the non-traditional roles paramedics serve in, as well as the ones we all think of when we see an ambulance (road or air), or a community paramedic vehicle in our communities. Paramedics are also valuable members of rescue teams, assessment teams, and humanitarian teams. Paramedics' skills at creating clinical spaces wherever they find their patients makes them a valuable team member in multi-disciplinary emergency and medical responses. #ParamedicServicesWeek #paramedics #DisasterRelief

Having a procedure done and need a medical escort? Here are some sources to consider

Improving CDSS: The Key to Enhanced Patient Care and Rescuer Support Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS) have increasingly become the backbone of medical response systems. As Heather Sharar aptly pointed out, “Ambulance rides are more than just a ride; it is medical monitoring, treatment, and observation.” This observation underscores the depth and significance of what our first responders encounter daily. As with any intricate system, identifying tools and devices that can enhance its efficacy is crucial. 🚑 Reducing Workload & Cognitive Load: To ensure that patient care is at its peak and our rescuers are not overwhelmed, it’s essential that CDSS tools reduce both the workflow and cognitive load. Overburdened systems and responders can inadvertently result in misjudgments or delays in critical situations. 🛠️ HAMILTON-T1 with ASV - A Game-Changer: One tool that is making waves in this realm is the HAMILTON-T1 with Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV). Designed to provide high-end ventilatory care, it offers: 1. Personalized Ventilation: Adjusts to the individual patient’s needs, ensuring optimal oxygenation and ventilation. 2. Ease of Use: Simplifies the decision-making process for healthcare providers, thus reducing cognitive load. 3. Portability: Essential for ambulance rides where space and agility matter. When resources like the HAMILTON-T1 with ASV are integrated into our CDSS, it optimizes patient care during those critical ambulance rides and supports our rescuers in delivering their best. But the responsibility doesn’t end at deploying the right tools. It extends to valuing and funding these lifesaving resources adequately. The sentiment Heather Sharar voiced is one we all must echo and advocate for. Our EMS and ambulance services are not mere transport; they are the thin line between life and death for many. And with the right tools, we can ensure this line remains unbroken. #EMS #ambulance #PatientCare #workflow#cognitiveload #CDSS #HAMILTONT1 #intelligentventilation #ventilationgeeks #workload #extrahands #CPRventilation #ASV #ventilation #criticalcare

It's another #membermonday for #SCEMSA! Check out the story from Prisma about Anson Hawkins and his experience in being a Community Paramedic! "Community Paramedics has opened my eyes and changed my perception,” he said. “These people have real problems. I met a 90-year-old woman who has to decide each day whether to eat or take her insulin. As a paramedic, my job was to fix the acute problem, fix the emergency. With Community Paramedics, we’re getting to the bottom of what is in the way of you taking your medicine. We’re finding the human cause, the real barriers." https://lnkd.in/gUdg8qBE

This whiteboard video from Ornge does a wonderful job of educating hospitals, physicians, nurses, and other healthcare staff about Ornge critical paramedics and all of the details and logistics that need to be considered for a successful air and land transfer.
