This morning at 9:33am, our critical care team responded to an incident in Pity Me, Durham. In response, pilot Stu flew on an-duty paramedic and doctor to the scene within 10 minutes. Once with the patient, the team worked to stabilise their condition ready for the journey to hospital, which was made by road with our doctor and paramedic accompanying. After the handover at hospital was complete, our trio made the short journey back to HQ, where they landed at 11:40am, which is captured in this clip 🎦 Support our recent Facebook Fundraiser, and help us fund a vital piece of kit: https://lnkd.in/e2gdW-bz #AirAmbulance #Charity

Happy Fundraising Friday: https://lnkd.in/e2gdW-bz 👋 ❓ What is it? ❗ This nifty device is a Laerdal Compact Suction Unit. ❓ What is it used for? ❗ We use our suction device for suctioning an airway, to clear out vomit or secretions so that our team can pass oxygen down the airway to help the patient breathe. It can also be used in the case of life-uncompromising bleeds... our doctor and paramedic will often suction blood out of the way so they can identify where the bleed is coming from. And, they've found it comes in pretty handy if they need to suck air out of a vacuum splint, too! ❓ Why is it important? ❗ Our critical care team use this piece of equipment frequently, it supports them in their efforts to save someone's life. Support our recent Facebook Fundraiser and help fund the equipment we need to save lives 💚
