Delighted to visit some of the walk in swab centres today. It was great to see the interagency cooperation and the friendly professional approach displayed by all to all. Continuing to flatten the curve, well done.@paulreiddublin @DonnellyStephen @AmbulanceNAS

The concern of members is genuine and not a figment of theirs or the media’s imagination.
“often you will get an ambulance worker, health worker and police officer at the same scene When there's a violent person, police officers are there trying to protect the health workers - yet it's the police officer that's not vaccinated” walesonline.co.uk/news/wales…

Good man @sonmedic!
Today, advanced paramedic Stephen O'Neill travelled by boat to administer vaccines on Cape Clear island to housebound patients >70. Reduced sickness, hospitalisations & mortality are huge benefits already within this age group of the population vaccinated. @HSELive @AmbulanceNAS

Replying to @IrishTimes
Lazy journalism from @IrishTimes. No longer the paper of record. Far from it. Why the portrayal of the medic with stethoscope? Why not show picture depicting department of health official?

Right now, this happens a lot of the time. But I look forward to a properly functioning trauma system where it will happen consistently for all patients with acute #SCI, resulting in better outcomes @MaterTrauma @SpinalIreland @keith_synnott @drfranok @drgeroconnor @tomasbreslin

When these people get into their air craft they often fly hundreds of mile of shore to serve others @IrishCoastGuard. Tomorrow we will remember some who never came home #Rescue116.

My mother lives alone and fell the other night. The Wexford ambulance crew got the key from the keysafe outside, got my mother on a stretcher, packed a bag for her, fed the cat, locked the house and put the key back. @Tweetinggoddess @ireland
