First Aid / Medical Cover For Events
It’s a nightmare! We know, but, we can help you
The HSE states:
“As well as workers (at the event), the HSE strongly recommends that you include the visiting public in your first aid, ambulance and medical needs assessment. You should balance onsite medical and ambulance provision against existing local NHS and ambulance service provision and capacity.
Except for small, low-risk events where ambulances may not be required, and at events where they are not on site, plans should be drawn up in conjunction with the local NHS ambulance service to clarify how patients will be taken to the hospital.”
Fortunately, there is good news. We can help you
As an event coordinator or promoter, we know how concerned you are about the increasing number of injuries and drug/alcohol abuse incidents that are occurring. All of our assigned medics will have real-life experience treating the most typical types of injuries that usually occur at your specific event. They will be knowledgeable, ready and equipped for unexpected injuries or illnesses that could occur.
Relieving Pressure on NHS Ambulance Trusts
Aside from medical coverage, we can assist with major incident planning, risk assessments, and communication with local NHS ambulance services and hospitals.
The Purple Guide, created in collaboration with the HSE, outlines event requirements and coverage levels. The Purple Guide is followed by NHS trusts.
We will work with you and officials, including the safety advisory group (SAG), to develop and agree on provision.
CAUTIONS ABOUT USING FIRST AIDERS AT EVENTS
First aid is very basic, and they cannot deal with anything else effectively. Our medical coverage is far more extensive.
Many coroners and public inquiries have stated that event environments require more resources than first aiders.
Meet public safety requirements with our professional and exprienced team, as inline with the Purple Guide we only use FREC 3 Responders as a minium do not employ anyone of a lower grade than FREC 3
