Summary

As care on our emergency and urgent care demand is on an ever upwards course, whilst alongside this the scope of what we can potentially deliver to patients is also increasing. In order to meet this demand and to deliver the best care possible to our patients we will need to look for other solutions.

We were lucky enough to be invited to the First Community Emergency at the Royal Society of Medicine in London, hosted by the Physician's Response Unit. This event looked at the current challenges and explored solutions and opportunities for more collaborative working.

In this podcast you'll hear from Tony Joy about the concept and practice of Community Emergency Medicine. You'll hear from Gareth Davies on the history of Pre Hospital Emergency Medicine, both challenges and achievements. Finally you'll hear from Bill Leaning, PRU clinical manager & HEMS paramedic about how to go about setting up a service.

Please let us know any thoughts or feedback, and we'll be back with another podcast on a clinical topic for you in a few days time.

Enjoy!

Simon & James

So not quite a roadside to recess, but a really fascinating conference nonetheless.

0:34.7

And I think we're going to hear in the podcast a lot more about what

0:37.6

community emergency medicine is because certainly I think both you and I, when we were heading

0:42.1

towards this conference, were really inspired by the program because it looked really interesting

0:46.7

and slightly different to some of the other conferences that are out there. But we certainly

0:50.5

weren't quite sure what community emergency medicine was. And hopefully by the end of this podcast, you will all have a good idea as well.

0:58.1

Before we get into it, a big thanks to S.J. Trem, the Scandinavian Journal of Trauma,

1:18.9

1:24.3

Society of Medicine in London.

1:26.5
