Today on the Pre-Hospital Care Podcast, the discussion opens with a critical question: why do even highly trained clinicians struggle to perform under pressure, and what can be done about it? To explore this, we are joined by Dr Stephen Hearns, a globally respected clinician, educator, and author whose work bridges emergency medicine, human performance science, and high-stakes decision-making.Stephen is a consultant in emergency and aeromedical retrieval medicine and played a central role in developing Scotland's Emergency Medical Retrieval Service (EMRS), a government-funded critical care retrieval organisation delivering advanced pre-hospital care to major trauma patients and those with complex critical illness in remote environments.Drawing on his book Peak Performance Under Pressure, Stephen examines the cognitive and behavioural factors that influence performance in extreme conditions. This episode focuses on practical strategies, including mental rehearsal, shared mental models, and cognitive aids, and how these translate into sharper decision-making and improved outcomes in real-world pre-hospital care.Further reading relevant to this episode from Stephen can be found here:https://corecognition.co.uk/blog/the-arc-of-performanceLearn more about Core Cognition:https://corecognition.co.uk/This episode is sponsored by PAX: The gold standard in emergency response bags.When you're working under pressure, your kit needs to be dependable, tough, and intuitive.

Grief is an inevitable part of pre-hospital care, yet it remains one of the most complex and challenging aspects of our work. In this compilation episode, we bring together three powerful conversations exploring grief, bereavement, loss, and the role healthcare professionals play in supporting patients, families, and themselves during some of life's most difficult moments.We begin with renowned psychotherapist and author Julia Samuel, who shares insights from more than three decades of working with bereaved families. Alongside Caroline Phillips, Julia explores the process of grief and bereavement, the skills required for breaking bad news, the impact of repeated exposure to loss on healthcare professionals, and practical approaches to building resilience in emotionally demanding roles.The episode then turns to a two-part conversation with grief specialist Liz Gleeson. In Part 1, we explore key theories and frameworks for understanding grief, including Attachment Theory, Continuing Bonds, the Dual Process Model, and Kübler-Ross's Five Stages of Grief. Liz discusses the importance of presence, listening, cultural awareness, and compassionate care, while also examining the emotional toll that supporting grieving individuals can have on clinicians.In Part 2, we take a deeper look at the many forms grief can take beyond bereavement. Together, we explore anticipatory grief, perinatal loss, suicide bereavement, parental and sibling grief, losses associated with ageing, and the often-overlooked impact of divorce, separation, and family estrangement. We also discuss disenfranchised grief and how recognising these experiences can help pre-hospital professionals provide more sensitive, informed, and person-centred care.Whether you are supporting families through sudden loss, caring for patients facing life-limiting illness, or reflecting on your own experiences of grief and exposure to trauma, this compilation offers practical insights, evidence-informed perspectives, and compassionate guidance for navigating one of the most universal aspects of human experience.Guests:Julia Samuel MBE – Psychotherapist, Founder Patron of Child Bereavement UK, and author of Grief Works and This Too Shall Pass.Liz Gleeson – Creator of the Shapes of Grief podcast and internationally recognised grief educator and therapist.This episode is essential listening for anyone working in pre-hospital, emergency, critical care, or healthcare environments where grief and loss are encountered as part of everyday practice.This episode is sponsored by PAX: The gold standard in emergency response bags.When you're working under pressure, your kit needs to be dependable, tough, and intuitive.

Neurodiversity is something paramedics encounter every day, whether we consciously identify it or not. It is present in the child who will not tolerate the blood pressure cuff, the adult who cannot answer questions in sequence, or the patient who appears agitated under blue lights but settles in a quiet room. Autism and ADHD are not rare edge cases; they are common neurodevelopmental differences that shape how people process information, regulate emotion, experience sensory input, and respond to stress.Both are frequently hidden. Many adults remain undiagnosed. Others mask extensively, particularly in public or professional settings, meaning the first time their coping strategies fail may be during illness, injury, or crisis. In the pre-hospital environment, defined by urgency, noise, bright lighting, unfamiliar touch, and compressed decision-making, those coping mechanisms can collapse quickly. What follows may look like resistance, inconsistency, hostility, or disengagement. In reality, it is often cognitive overload or dysregulation.Autism and ADHD also overlap significantly. Executive dysfunction, sensory sensitivity, communication differences, emotional lability, and difficulties with working memory can coexist. For paramedics operating under time pressure, rapid behavioural interpretation becomes almost automatic: cooperative or not, intoxicated or sober, compliant or difficult. When neurodivergence is not considered, behaviour is framed as intentional rather than neurological.Today on the Pre-hospital Care Podcast, I'm joined by David Birch to unpack this in practical terms. We explore how ADHD and autism actually present on scene, beyond stereotypes, and why behaviours such as poor eye contact, restlessness, blunt communication, or inconsistent histories are so often mislabelled as non-compliance or intoxication. We examine the clinical risk of those assumptions, from premature diagnostic closure to inappropriate use of sedation or restraint.Most importantly, we discuss what paramedics can do differently. Not complex protocols or lengthy interventions, but small, deliberate, patient-centred adjustments: simplifying language, reducing sensory load where possible, allowing processing time, offering clear structure and predictability, and reframing behaviour through a neurodiversity-informed lens.

Joyce talks about the rising cost of healthcare, with the public often blaming elected officials and insurance companies. Evidence has it, however, that the hospitals themselves are to blame for rising costs.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In pre-hospital care, few diagnoses carry the same urgency as stroke. But not all strokes present the way we expect, and that's where the risk lies. In this episode, we explore the challenge of recognising posterior circulation strokes, using both clinical insight and lived experience. I'm joined by Shane Devlin, a registered paramedic and newly appointed PhD researcher focusing on posterior stroke recognition. His work builds on frontline experience and a growing body of evidence that highlights just how easily these patients can be missed.Alongside Shane, this conversation is grounded in a personal story: my brother, Ronan Walker, who suffered a posterior stroke 4 years ago in his late 30's. His presentation didn't fit the traditional mould. There was no clear FAST-positive picture, just subtle, evolving symptoms that required a different kind of clinical suspicion.This episode sits at the intersection of science and story. We unpack the limitations of current assessment tools, the cognitive challenges clinicians face in the field, and what needs to change to improve recognition. Because in a posterior stroke, the issue often isn't treatment, it's getting patients to treatment in time.Shane has published both case studies and qualitative research on PCS. Both can be found here: Paramedic recognition of posterior circulation stroke: a vignette and focus group studyhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37674916/Not so FAST: pre-hospital posterior circulation stroke:https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/06a1/f16d9062708b6f4ff8bb29efb7d9a61b43db.pdf⁠This episode is sponsored by PAX: The gold standard in emergency response bags.When you're working under pressure, your kit needs to be dependable, tough, and intuitive.

This episode features Norah Elvidge  (School of Nursing, Faculty of Health, Queensland University of Technology, Kelvin Grove, QLD, Australia. Silverchain, Melbourne, VIC, Australia).   What is already known on this topic? Many people with palliative care needs would prefer to be cared for and/or die at home. Many people will be cared for at home by specialist community palliative care services. Despite this, hospitalisation rates remain high for people receiving specialist community palliative care services. Carers face physical, emotional and financial burden caring for someone with palliative care needs at home.   What this paper adds Provides a deeper understanding of the contextual and individual determinants of why people receiving specialist community palliative care access unplanned hospital care. Provides insight into specialist palliative care carer behaviour at the end of life. Highlights the importance of the carer's role in decisions surrounding acute care access for people at the end of life.   Implications for practice, theory or policy Further research is needed to capture the perspective of people receiving specialist community palliative care regarding the reasons for unplanned hospital use. The number of unplanned hospital presentations for people receiving community palliative care may be reduced through the provision of better formal support for their carers. Examining factors contributing to unplanned hospital use supports specialist community palliative care services to refine models of care and optimise care delivery.   Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02692163261418625   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

Today on the Pre-hospital Care Podcast, we dive into the growing role of high-fidelity simulation in improving clinical performance, team coordination, and patient outcomes in pre-hospital care systems. Simulation has moved beyond an educational luxury to become a strategic tool for preparing clinicians for the unpredictable and high-stakes nature of pre-hospital emergency medicine. In this episode, we explore not only the advantages of realistic experiential training but also the critical role of targeted debriefing and video-assisted debriefs in cementing learning, enhancing psychological safety, and driving measurable performance improvements.Our guest is Ben King, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Best Practice Medicine, a clinician-founded, Montana-based organisation dedicated to experiential healthcare education, high fidelity simulation, travel paramedicine, and EMS response services. Ben is widely recognised as a thought leader in resuscitative medicine, team dynamics, and human performance under stress, and has been a driving force in expanding the use of high-fidelity simulation to prepare providers for real-world clinical complexity.

Today's episode, Trauma Fundamentals: Chest, Pelvis & Spine, brings together a curated compilation of three core areas of major trauma that every pre-hospital clinician must be confident in managing.In this episode, we revisit thoracic trauma with Dr Geoff Healy, exploring the life-threatening pathologies that demand early recognition and decisive intervention. We then move into pelvic trauma with Dr Ash Vasireddy, unpacking the nuances of pelvic assessment, the significance of the mechanism of injury, and the importance of early stabilisation. Finally, we round things off with spinal trauma alongside CCP Jim Walmsley, discussing decision-making, immobilisation, and the evolving evidence base guiding contemporary practice.These are conversations packed with practical insights, clinical nuance, and real pearls of wisdom from our guests. Whether you're early in your career or an experienced clinician, there is huge value in revisiting these fundamentals and reflecting on how they shape your approach to trauma care on scene.As always, the aim is not to be prescriptive but to support your thinking, challenge assumptions, and broaden your perspective on managing seriously injured patients in the pre-hospital environment.Do remember to work within your local policies, guidelines, and scope of practice at all times. But we hope that the discussions in this episode help inform your decision-making and ultimately support you in delivering high-quality, patient-centred trauma care when it matters most.⁠This episode is sponsored by PAX: The gold standard in emergency response bags.When you're working under pressure, your kit needs to be dependable, tough, and intuitive.

When someone is admitted to hospital for a mental health crisis, families are often told: “We can’t share patient information.” But is privacy legislation really the barrier it’s made out to be? In this episode of Look Again: Mental Illness Re-examined, we explore the tension between confidentiality and family involvement in care, and why culture, not the law, may be keeping loved ones in the dark. Host Faydra Aldridge is joined by Monica, a parent who shares her lived experience navigating the system, and psychiatrist Dr. Richard O’Reilly, who unpacks what Canadian privacy laws actually allow, and why they’re so often misunderstood. It’s a candid conversation about advocacy, accountability, and the vital role families can play in recovery.Timecodes:(01:05) Legal representation and challenges accessing medical information(02:40) Resilience, compassion, and vulnerability during mental illness(04:01) Being excluded from care during early hospitalizations(06:44) Gaps in medical records and sharing collateral information(08:10) Limits of Section 9 and Section 7 representation agreements(10:00) Family’s role in preventing adverse medication reactions(12:27) Anosognosia and early intervention challenges(14:04) Capacity assessment issues in Section 9 agreements(16:23) Recommendations for improving the mental health system(18:16) Experiences of involuntary hospitalization and need for support(21:47) Gaps between families and care teams(23:18) Expert explains privacy laws and clinician practices(29:42) Family involvement improves patient outcomes(30:11) Solutions: training, program inclusion, and fighting stigmaResources:- Full video from FASMI and Dr O'Rielly See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Pre-Hospital Care Podcast, we explore the evolving management of Neck of Femur (NOF) fractures, one of the most common and operationally challenging presentations in pre-hospital care. With an ageing population driving a rising incidence, these injuries represent a significant clinical and systems burden, requiring both rapid assessment and increasingly sophisticated early management.Joined by Emma Moore, Senior Lecturer in Paramedic Science at CQUniversity Australia, the discussion unpacks current challenges and future directions in care. We examine the growing role of pre-hospital care bundles, specialist triage pathways, and how system design is adapting to improve patient outcomes. A key focus is analgesia, including the expanding use of fascia iliaca blocks and multimodal pain strategies in the pre-hospital environment.The episode also highlights the key clinical distinctions between older and younger patients, in which priorities shift from early mobilisation to joint preservation, despite historically poor outcomes in the latter group. Operational considerations such as scene time versus rapid transport, and the skills paramedics need for the next generation of care, are explored in depth.This episode offers practical insight and forward-looking perspectives for clinicians aiming to optimise NOF fracture management in the pre-hospital setting.

You're about to hear a conversation about doing less. But it isn't really about doing less. It's about time. Recorded at Trauma 2030 at the Royal College of Surgeons, this episode explores a shift in mindset in pre-hospital trauma care — away from maximal intervention on scene and towards rapid recognition of the patient who cannot be fixed pre-hospital. I'm joined by Harriet Tucker — consultant at London's Air Ambulance, HEMS Governance Lead at Air Ambulance Kent Surrey Sussex, and Trauma Team Leader at St George's Major Trauma Centre — to talk about damage control pre-hospital care. We discuss: Using time as a treatment Recognising non-compressible haemorrhage Why one line may be enough Moving interventions into the ambulance Changing the pre-alert The “pit stop” resus Taking patients straight to theatre Cultural resistance to doing less Governance, debrief, and looking after teams This approach focuses on a small but critically unwell group of patients — often penetrating trauma with rapidly exsanguinating haemorrhage — where the only definitive treatment is surgical control of bleeding. The key intervention is speed. Harriet also discusses the governance work behind this change, the importance of reviewing every case, and how to bring ambulance services and in-hospital teams along with the shift in thinking. This episode is part of a series recorded at Trauma 2030. More conversations from the meeting will follow in upcoming episodes.  Upcoming events Harriet will be speaking at Tactical Trauma, 2–4 November, Sundsvall, Sweden.

Dr. Paul Testa, Chief Health Informatics Officer who helped create the About Me Initiative at NYU Langone Health, and Dr. Katherine Hochman, Director of Hospital Medicine at NYU Langone Health, who envisioned the initiative, discuss the benefits of encouraging patients to provide non-medical information. The goal is to help care teams see patients as whole people beyond their diagnoses and to give patients an opportunity to share interests, hobbies, and fun facts that can help build trust and meaningful human connections. This About Me Initiative is being expanded from inpatient care to outpatient settings, such as infusion centers. Paul explains, "The About Me section in our EHR Epic is something that NYU Langone developed with the inspiration of Dr. Hochman, and it's essentially a dedicated discreet space in the medical record to allow patients to declare themselves, allowing them to give them a space that is transparent to all the users of the electronic health record, which are many and vast in their rules. So let them articulate something beyond their disease process or their health. So often, we reduce records to pneumonia, a broken hip, or an infection. The patient is so much more than that, and patients want to share that with us. We know that from practicing for years, Kathy and I both know that the way you connect with patients is through a narrative. Our currency is narrative. This is a location where either a patient or, if they choose to defer, can have one of their nurses or care team members provide a small sample of who they are outside of the care environment."   Katherine elaborates, "So I'm a hospitalist. Every Tuesday, I come into 16 to 18 new patients. And at NYU Langone, our length of stay keeps getting shorter and shorter, which is fantastic for patients because we want to get them in and out of the hospital as quickly and as safely as possible. But by definition, if patients stay shorter and shorter, we don't have as much time to connect. So the About Me Initiative really kicks off that connection that Paul was talking about a second ago. So long ago, and this is how it started, I would tell my teams, slow down to speed up, get to know who this patient is before getting into the heart failure, the pneumonia, the COPD, and really try to establish a little bit of a connection and build trust." #NYULangone #PatientVoices #PatientCare #HealthcareInnovation #PatientExperience #HealthIT #EHR #EpicEHR #HumanConnection #HealthcareTransformation #PatientCentered #MedicalTechnology #DigitalHealth #EmpathyInMedicine  nyulangone.org Download the transcript here

Welcome to this special edition of Roadside to Resus where we're diving into some of the progressive and practice-defining developments in pre-hospital emergency care. This episode brings together a superb group of clinicians, educators and leaders who are shaping the future of PHEM across the UK, and we caught up with them at the recent Faculty of Pre-hospital Care Conference entitled 'The Wider World of Pre-hospital Care'! We start with Pam Hardy, the Chair of the FPHC, who offers an introduction to the College and its ongoing work to elevate standards across pre-hospital care.  Next, Camella Main guides us through the brand-new Pre-hospital Maternity Decision Tool designed to support clinicians facing complex decision making in this complex group of patients. Camella breaks down how the tool came to fruition and how teams can use it to enhance safety and decision-making on scene. We then hear from Ben Sheppey, who explores the growing move to formalise and professionalise voluntary pre-hospital care. Ben reflects on the challenges, opportunities and cultural shifts required to align voluntary responders with national standards. Harriet Tucker then walks us through the new FPHC consensus statement on managing penetrating neck injuries. She distils the key principles, the recommendations, and how the guidance aims to bring clarity to one of the most complex and time-critical presentations we face. From there, Cosmo Scurr unpacks the latest AAGBI PHEA Guideline, highlighting the key movements in delivering anaesthesia in the pre-hospital environment. We also hear from Felix Wood, who provides a sharp, practical look at crush injury and crush syndrome. Finally, Zane Perkins explores the rapidly advancing world of AI in PHEM. From practical application to decision making support. Zane describes how emerging technologies have the potential to change prehospital care in ways we may have never considered before! A huge thanks to the expert speakers for their time recording highlights from the superb conference. Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon, Rob & James

In this episode, we take a deeper look at the many faces of grief that pre-hospital professionals may encounter in the field, often in subtle, complex, and deeply human ways. While grief is commonly associated with death, it extends far beyond, touching every kind of loss: from separation and divorce to anticipatory grief, perinatal loss, and the unique pain of suicide bereavement.We're joined once again by Liz Gleeson, psychotherapist, educator, and grief specialist, to explore these lesser discussed but critical aspects of grief. Together, we'll examine disenfranchised grief, where people mourn losses that aren't openly acknowledged or socially supported; anticipatory grief, where loved ones begin grieving before a death occurs; and specific experiences such as parental bereavement, sibling loss, grief in older adults, and grief following perinatal loss.We'll also explore how non-death losses like divorce or family estrangement can trigger profound grief responses that may go unrecognised during emergency care. This conversation will help you better understand the many forms grief can take and offer insights into how you, as a pre-hospital professional, can provide more compassionate, informed, and sensitive care during some of life's most difficult moments.You can find Liz's podcast "Shapes of Grief' podcast here: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/shapes-of-grief/id1450116449This is Liz's website, where further training on grief can be found: https://shapesofgrief.com/

David Game remembers the days when the use of digital technology in education publishing amounted to putting a dictionary on a compact disc. Now, as the senior vice president of Product Management, Global Medical Education at Elsevier, he oversees a suite of learning materials that use artificial intelligence, virtual reality and 3-D modeling. “We've expanded into immersive technology with Apple Vision Pro that enables you to be inside the human body, to see and explore the human heart from the inside out and it is absolutely stunning,” says Game, whose long career in publishing includes experience in North America, the United Kingdom, Europe, China and India. As Game has witnessed first-hand, advancements in ed tech, including distance learning, have provided students with an array of options and modalities to choose from that accommodate different learning styles and life circumstances, and that puts a premium on being able to meet students where they are. “We want to make sure that students find learning from our materials engaging, efficient, and aligned with how they live their lives and do their work.” Join host Lindsey Smith for this fascinating episode of Raise the Line to learn how Elsevier is leveraging the innovations offered by Osmosis, Complete Anatomy and ClinicalKey Student to enrich the learning of medical students on their journey to becoming excellent clinicians.Mentioned in this Episode:Complete AnatomyClinicalKey StudentOsmosis If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.
