If youβre waiting for an ambulance, please do not ring back to ask for an estimated arrival time, as we simply canβt provide one. Only call back if the patientβs condition gets worse or you no longer need our help.

Tonight we were honoured to attend the annual @swasFT awards night @StMellion & watch some of the @devoncfr amongst other receive awards for their contribution to making @swasFT a great place to work & volunteer and to see our very own Katherine win an award as well
It is with great sadness that we heard tonight of the death after a short illness of @BASICS_HQ & @liveshq stalwart Tim Nuttall. Tim was a regular mbr of our teaching faculties & past educational facilitator. Our thoughts are with his wife Kiki, his friends & his family.
As today is #EmergencyServicesDay, we wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to those who work & volunteer in the emergency services across the country. πππ
Especially to all of #TeamSWASFT for their commitment and hard work - we couldnβt do it without you!π

Thanks to @swa_charity & @NHSCharities for the donation of new lifting chairs for Wembury, Millbay & Torbay CFR groups & more to follow. These chairs help our CFRβs to get non injury fallers off the floor often saving ambulance & hospital attendance @swasFT@Will_SWASFT
