Good afternoon readers,
I'll be quiet for 3 weeks as I'm off out to do some Medical work out in Germany, but before I leave I thought I'd share with you what I thought is an excellent in-depth analysis of best practice use of the BVM - it might be basics to some but it never hurts to refresh something that's so simple to use, but can be devastating if you get wrong.
American College of Emergency Physicians - BVM
Hope someone finds this useful!

My journey from Military Medic, to Civilian Paramedic and everything in-between. I will reflect as I go through the challenges of University, offer some advice and tips on being successful at getting into University, talk about incidents as case studies and more.
Feel free to contact me via the form at the bottom or click on an option below for Advice, Resources, or my Diary to follow my journey.
