In this conversation, we will explore some of the lessons learned through years of major incident attendance in Scotland from the Emergency Medical Retrieval Services (EMRS). We examine the Scottish Trauma Network, the demographics of healthcare in Scotland, and some of the recent and seminal major incidents that have informed EMRS’s approach. We also include some of the lessons learnt through the Manchester bombings – that of paediatric triage and treatment in Mass Casualty incidents. We examine some of the lessons learnt through using CSCATTT, METHANE, activation and tasking, communications both remotely and at site, preferred triage tools and much more.
To do this I have John Paul Loughrey with me. JP is a Consultant in Emergency Medicine at the QEUH in Glasgow and has worked with EMRS in a variety ous roles since 2011. He is the Major Incident lead for ScotSTAR and is Vice-President of the Royal College of Emergency Medicine. In addition, his other main professional interests include major trauma care, teaching and training and organising large-scale CPD events and conferences.
