Best of the PHCP in 2025 - Part 1

As we close out this Best of 2025, these episodes represent far
more than download numbers or chart positions. They reflect the
conversations that resonated most with you, the ones that
challenged practice, reinforced fundamentals, and reminded us why
this work matters.


From Prehospital Resuscitative Thoracotomy for Traumatic Cardiac
Arrest with Mike Christian, to The Evolving Nature of Major
Incidents with Adam Desmond, Paediatric Assessment in Critical
Care with Anna Dobbie, Frailty in Geriatric Patients with Iain
Wilkinson and James Adams, and The Last Year of Life focusing on
Palliative and End of Life Care; each episode speaks to a
different phase of life, a different clinical challenge, and a
different kind of responsibility. Together, they capture the full
spectrum of pre-hospital and emergency care: from critical care
decisions to thoughtful, values-based care at the end of life.


They remind us that excellence in practice is not just about
technical skill or clinical algorithms, but about clear
communication, teamwork, and compassion, whether we are managing
traumatic cardiac arrest, supporting families during major
incidents, caring for critically unwell children, advocating for
frail older adults, or walking alongside patients in their final
year of life.
