You may have noticed a large number of Police, other emergency services, students and actors descending onto the old football pitch in Chandos Park yesterday. This was to take part in a exercise to improve our working practices when it comes to collaboration at major incidents. The event was planned by Buckinghamshire University (in conjunction with the emergency services) and enabled their medical students to gain first hand experience of treating patients in the field. It was a highly successful and enjoyable day with a lot of learning coming out of it. |
