EPISODE 1

Pre-Hospital Care
​

In this episode (the first of three parts) you’ll hear from Ady Fell, an advanced paramedic in critical care at the Yorkshire Ambulance Service and Jonny Scrimshaw, consultant in Emergency and Pre-Hospital Medicine.

We discuss their work with the Yorkshire Ambulance MERIT team and what this service does and we look at how they would approach a pre-hospital intubation and how they train and prepare for such challenging situations. 
​
Both Jonny and Ady are speaking as individual professionals rather than as representatives of the Yorkshire Ambulance Service.
