During a paediatric First Aid course this week I mentioned that I'd advised a school previously to change their First Aid policy; it required the head teacher to be consulted before an ambulance was called.
My issue with that part of the policy was twofold, firstly that it could delay time critical care, and secondly the fact that the Headteacher had no First Aid qualifications, so on what basis were they better placed than a trained first aider to decide if a child needed an ambulance?
Two people on the course commented that their school policies had the same thing in it, so I suggested that they go back and drop into conversation that this exact thing came up in conversation on the course as an example of poor policy. Fingers crossed they can get it changed!

With Martyn's Law coming into effect at some point after April 2027, critical bleed (or Life Threatening Bleed) courses will be becoming a regular thing. To help schools prepare for that I'm going to be running a free training session on 5th October open to any schools in South West London, limited to one person per school. The session will be from 9am-12pm in Whitton, and anyone attending will need to hold a current First Aid certificate. Get in touch if you'd like to attend

The Fire Brigade are working amazingly hard right now. I saw two appliances on blues when I drove home earlier and then one attended a fire in my road. Once the fire was sorted I took them a bunch of colds drinks from my fridge and their appreciation was genuine. Let’s support our Fire fighters now like we did the NHS in Covid.
