The Health and Safety Executive ‘ Event Safety Guidelines’ publication will indicate what level of medical cover is required for your event. Special risks may present themselves to the organiser of an event depending on the size of a crowd, the event location, the makeup of a crowd, past history, activities taking place etc.
At an equestrian event severe chest and head injuries can occur. Spinal injuries could result. Boxing and martial arts competitors may sustain head injuries leading to unconciousness. At motor sports high speed impact can cause massive internal injury. At music/pop events guests may engage in social drug use leading to life threatening collapse. The list goes on.

With these risks in mind Medics24 have developed five levels of service:

Level 1-  Paramedic led team  with static treatment facility.
Level 2-  4x4 or conventional paramedic ambulance (1 x paramedic & 1 x emergency medical technician).
Level 3-  4x4 or conventional EMT ambulance ( 2 x emergency medical technicians).
Level 4-  Single crewed response vehicle.
Level 5-  Single staff member with limited equipment on foot- Paramedic, EMT,  or First Aid staff.

We can, of course, provide any combination of the above.

Rapid access to the scene of an incident can save lives. Our specially converted 4x4 vehicles can bring life saving resources to a difficult terrain where other vehicles could not.  Our conventional ambulance vehicles can transport patients to definitive care centres, with advanced care performed en route.  On occasions our static treatment facility is requested and can prove a valuable resource. Equipped with a paramedic led team and life saving kit a patient would be assured of advanced care, with a facility that will remain on site.
Our services are being increasingly seen as the professional choice. Such organisations as the British Army and the Football Association have recognised this.
Please contact us so that we may discuss your needs. All services are fully covered with medical & public liability insurances. Details on request.

“We did have one broken arm to deal with on the day & I am happy to report that your paramedics were both friendly and professional. They dealt with the situation promptly & we were able to resume the competition in a very short time” T Scales, East Anglian Hunter Trials, 14.01.08
