7/7 with Ken Murphy - Major incident mini series

This session will be the first of a mini-series examining the
first-hand accounts of clinicians at some of the most well-known
major incidents in the past 20 years. We will start the series by
looking at the London bombings from both my perspective and a
paramedic Team Leader now Critical Care Paramedic Ken Murphy. We
will examine from our anecdotal experience how the scene unfolded
and how it became apparent that 3 other bombs had detonated in
quick succession. We will walk through some of the thoughts,
recollections and structural components and just how it felt to
be part of the largest coordinated terrorist attack that the UK
has ever seen.


In the episode we examine:


Our day up until that point

The initial call to Kings Cross for a reported power surge

The confirmation down in Aldgate East

Arrival on scene and what met us

The triage and extrication

CSCATTT and closer look at the 3 Ts

Transfer of patients to the Royal London Hospital 

Kings Cross – the casualty clearing station and transfer of
patients 



I hope you enjoy this first hand account that examines the
difficulties and realities of major incidents. 





To apply for the Medics Academy Fellowship
please apply here quoting 'PHC' for Pre-Hospital Care to let the
team know you'd want to work with the podcast team.

You will acquire the digital skills to both create and harness
cumulative attention to knowledge domains and speakers through
the podcast platform and co-aligned spaces. As a Fellow you also
gain access to Medics.Academy workshops, courses, resources,
discounts and masters level accreditation. We are continuously
developing the programme to make it a robust and exciting
experience for those that are successful in joining. The
Fellowship Programme is for a duration of 18 months and comprises
three phases:


·  skill training and learning,


·  skill development


·  skill application


The phases progress the fellow from a stage of independent
working to small group and eventually large group production of a
project. In each phase you will be mentored and guided by a
specific individual within the company who has experience in
producing aspects of the project. On average a fellow will spend
3-6 hours a week in producing the task and the timeframe for
tasks will become more independently governed by the fellow as
they progress into the next phases. This programme is ideal for
individuals with other commitments as it provides a flexible
working environment.


As a Fellow you can enrol in the post graduate certification
programme (PG Cert) in Clinical Practice, Management and
Education. This programme is run by Medics.Academy and accredited
by the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) Medical School.
The work you do as a Fellow will count towards the overall
requirements of the PG Cert. For the joint Medics.Academy
Fellowship Programme with postgraduate certificate we require the
programme to be completed in 18 months with a potential for a
six-month extension to complete programme assessments and
elements.
