Our fire and paramedic colleagues from New South Wales joined the team today for a tour of the HART base and a demo of some of our kit and capabilities and maybe give @HantsIOW_fire a run for their money @_ukro ππ π
@SCAS_HART The Hazardous Area Response Team, the clue is in the name! An amazing team of highly specialist Paramedics who rescue patients in the most dangerous conditions. Great to see their kit and vehicles yesterday. I hope to visit their base sometime. Thank you to all!!
2/2 It was a long way up to the base of the spire - especially for those carrying equipment. The pics are snaps from a phone (not Service photographer ones!) Look carefully in one (on first post) to spot the Tech Rescue bod. @fire_salisbury @DWFRSPooleFire @SCAS_HART
1/2 Yesterday, 2 of Green Watch control observed a real-time exercise at Salisbury Cathedral involving a rescue from height at the base of the spire. Crews from @fire_salisbury @DWFRSPooleFire worked alongside @SCAS_HART to stabilise & rescue a casualty who was seriously injured.
v3.1 of @jesip999's Joint Doctrine is now live.
Notable new additions include Forward Command Point Discipline, Casualty Mapping and use of the new #EmergencyAlerts.
The quick reference below highlights the changes, with the full document available at jesip.org.uk/downloads/jointβ¦
Our 999 teams are extremely busy today.
As a result, some patients calling 999 who do not have a serious or life-threatening emergency requiring an immediate response may be directed to use alternative, more appropriate urgent care services.
Working in a #UKHART team needs #paramedics to be flexible and adaptable to changing circumstances, to stay calm under pressure and be mentally and physically #resilient.
Is HART the next role for you?
