We held our first ever national face to face Advanced Practitioner Critical Care (APCC) meeting and training day today. With reps from our North, West and South-East teams, it was a great opportunity for team building, share learning and experience.

Many of us are enjoying Scotland's beautiful scenery at this time of year and the roads are busy.
To overtake safely, look well ahead & beyond the vehicle in front, consider your position & avoid overtaking at junctions and lay-bys.

Thanks to @Scotambservice CEO @MDicksonNHS for visiting our South-East Advanced Practitioner Critical Care training day today. It was great to meet you and discuss major trauma and pre-hospital critical care.
Congratulations to our Inverness Advanced Practitioner in Critical Care, Mike Adams who was successfully signed off by our @Scotambservice Associate Medical Director and APCC Clinical Lead @trjparke today. Well done Mike! 👏👏
Many thanks to @drpaddymorgan for joining our @Scotambservice Trauma Tuesday CPD session to discuss drowning. Lots to think about but key is to do the basics well. Suction only what you can see, support 'air in and out' and 'blood round and round'. 👏👏

We are thrilled to be hosting Stuart Manwell to discuss the @ScotTraumaNwk Major Trauma Triage Tools
Stuart will demonstrate how the tool can benefit major trauma patients and triage them to the most appropriate definitive point of care!
