Last week saw the conclusion of this years collaboration with the Paramedic Studies students in UL.
Over 5 months, first year students on the course attended a one day programme which introduced them to Fire & Rescue Services, and gave them an insight into different incidents they will meet us at, as well as introducing them to some of the equipment and procedures we use.
The programme covered Incident Command, RTC, breathing apparatus, hazardous materials, patient handling and also showed the capabilities of our aerial appliance.
We were delighted to continue our long standing partnership with the Paramedic Studies School, and we hope all of the students enjoyed their brief taste of how we can work with them at many different incident types.
We would like to wish this years group the very best for the rest of their studies, and no doubt we will meet them “on the road” in years to come.
