A Stable Workforce Starts with Selection
Although 6 years ago this still remains relevant today. We have unacceptable levels of depression and suicide in our profession. The "ten foot high and bullet proof" attitude still pervades even today. As we are placed under more pressure operationally we need to make sure that those coming into the profession are both physically and mentally ready for the rigours of a career in EMS. Selection of candidates should be intensive to ensure mental stability and that they have

Integration Of Resuscitation Education Science Into All Our Courses At EMTG
In October 2020 the AHA released the American Heart Association Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care. At EMTG we recognise that these evidence-based guidelines transcend CPR and ECC education and are highly effective tools to be used in all our courses. The Formula for Resuscitation describes 3 interactive factors-guideline quality (medical science), efficient education of patient caregivers (educational efficiency) and a functional c

Emergency Medical Training and Crisis Resource Management.
Team training is an essential component of all our courses at EMTG. It is directed towards optimising teamwork, communication, leadership and other aspects of crisis resource management. Multiple studies have demonstrated that standardised team training as a supplement enhances team dynamics and communication and may contribute to an improvement in technical skills. Training that focuses on the communication and interpersonal skills required for teams to work as a coordinated

At EMTG We Train Successful Resuscitation Teams.
Successful team dynamics are critical during any resuscitation attempt. The interaction between team members has a great impact on individual performance as well as patient outcome. The better the team functions the better the potential outcome for your patient. It is not just important to understand what to do but how to communicate during resuscitation attempts whether a team member or team leader. The best resuscitation teams not only have medical expertise and mastery of

Reducing Risk in Public Safety & Strengthening the Quality of Life of First Responders
This came across our email today and may be of interest to many of you out there. In public safety, risk management and employee wellness are intertwined: Healthy personnel make better decisions and deliver better service, in turn reducing the chance of negative outcomes during emergency calls. And agencies that invest in learning from tragedies and sharing that knowledge empower employees to do their jobs better and safer.
This webinar from Cordico, a Lexipol company, will

The greats weren't great cos at birth they could paint. The greats were great cos they painted a lot
I was first introduced to this video by our medical director and anaesthetist Matt Matton-Howarth during the airway session in one of our PHTLS courses. I have watched it several times since because although it is a brilliant lecture on the psychology of airway management its true value (I believe) lies in a far greater context, namely how do we achieve competence? Competence requires deliberate practice within an appropriate educational framework. The key is not only that th

NHS Ambulance Service Efficiency
At EMTG we are not afraid of controversy. Written by Professor Andy Newton, one of our instructors this article shows great insight into the operation performance and productivity of NHS ambulance trusts. I am sure that many of you have witnessed the "more of the same" culture that seems to pervade the ambulance service while major fundamental issues remain unaddressed or ignored. The inevitable result is poor morale and ultimately poor performance. Whatever side of this deb

Simulation Training at EMTG
This short video gives you an opportunity to see how we incorporate simulation training into our courses at EMTG. From the NAEMT programs, the AHA courses, FREC 3 and 4 we utilise simulation training as an adjunct to the students' learning experience. We utilise 270 degree projection, surround sound, environmental variables and even smell into our simulations. This introduces elements of realism into the learning environment allowing students access to many varied clinical ex

Welcome to the new EMTG website!
When we started Emergency Medical and Training Group Ltd in 2017, we had the desire to provide training of exceptionally high standard. We wanted to move in a new direction and provide training that was not offered (or offered infrequently) anywhere else in the UK. This started by becoming an American Heart Association International Training Centre providing high quality AHA courses to nurses and physicians either moving to the US or gaining employment with American companies
