Females in PHEM with Ffyon Davis

In this conversation, we will examine the percentage and growth
of females in Pre-Hospital Emergency Medicine (PHEM). We also
examine the diversity within the UK context and how this has
slowly but surely grown and affected the workforce for the better
within pre-hospital care. We also discuss the hierarchy of
competence, barriers to entry and some of the covert and overt
challenges that women have faced to enter PHEM.


To do this I have Ffyon Davis with me. Ffyon is an emergency
medicine registrar and expedition doctor with a special interest
in PHEM. She is also a World Extreme Medicine (WEM) faculty
member and avid explorer. The empirical paper mentioned within
the episode on outcome data can be found here:
