Book Synopsis The Ambulance by : Ryan Corbett Bell
Download or read book The Ambulance written by Ryan Corbett Bell and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2009 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over several centuries the ambulance has evolved from horse-drawn wagons designed to remove wounded soldiers from the battlefield into high-speed emergency rooms on wheels, staffed by skilled professionals. This thorough history follows the ambulance through every phase, focusing not just on the vehicles but on their role within the developing medical systems they served, as well as the political, social and economic influences that have shaped their advancement. Topics include the critical role of police ambulances in the development of the first emergency medical services, the history of the ambulance intern, breakthroughs in ambulance design and function from the horse-drawn days to the present, notable women in ambulance development, and a fresh look at the first organized paramedic services. More than 275 photographs and other illustrations accompany the text.
Download or read book Bad Call written by Mike Scardino and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An adrenaline-fueled read that will stay with you long after you turn the final page, Bad Call is a "compulsively readable, totally unforgettable" memoir about working on a New York City ambulance in the 1960s (James Patterson). Bad Call is Mike Scardino's visceral, fast-moving, and mordantly funny account of the summers he spent working as an "ambulance attendant" on the mean streets of late-1960s New York. Fueled by adrenaline and Sabrett's hot dogs, young Mike spends his days speeding from one chaotic emergency to another. His adventures take him into the middle of incipient race riots, to the scene of a plane crash at JFK airport and into private lives all over Queens, where New Yorkers are suffering, and dying, in unimaginable ways. Learning on the job, Mike encounters all manner of freakish accidents (the man who drank Drano, the woman attacked by rats, the man who inflated like a balloon), meets countless unforgettable New York characters, falls in love, is nearly murdered, and gets an early and indelible education in the impermanence of life and the cruelty of chance. Action-packed, poignant, and rich with details that bring Mike's world to technicolor life, Bad Call is a gritty portrait of a bygone era as well as a bracing reminder that, though "life itself is a fatal condition," it's worth pausing to notice the moments of beauty, hope, and everyday heroism along the way.

Book Synopsis Ambulance Services by : Paresh Wankhade
Download or read book Ambulance Services written by Paresh Wankhade and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-19 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides fresh insights and management understanding of the changing role of the ambulance services against the backdrop of massive cuts in health budgets around the world and the changing context of pre-hospital care within the wider healthcare networks. The challenges of funding, training and cultural transformation are now felt globally. The need to learn and adapt from suitable models of ambulance service delivery have never been greater. The book offers critical insights into the theory and practice of strategic and operational management of ambulance services and the leadership needs for the service. One of the highlight of this volume is to bring together scholarship using experts- academics, practitioners and professionals in the field, to each of the chosen topics. The chapters are based in the practical experiences of the authors and are written in a way that is accessible and suitable for a range of audiences. We are confident that this book will cater to a wider audience to inform policy and practice, both in the UK and internationally. Paresh Wankhade is Professor of Leadership and Management at Edge Hill University, UK Kevin Mackway-Jones is the Medical Director at North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust, UK Endorsements “This unique and valuable publication, charts the history and development of the ambulance service in England over the last hundred years or so. The role of this key emergency service has always been important, and arguably never more so than today. The contributing authors have not only provided the reader with great insights into where the service has come from and the leadership challenges it has, and continues to face; it also gives examples of how the future could look as our journey of transformation continues.” Peter Bradley CBE, MBA (and author of Taking Healthcare to the Patient 2005), Chief Executive Officer. St John National Headquarters, New Zealand "With a year on year increase in demand for emergency ambulances and over 9 million calls annually, the UK Ambulance Service must change from its emergency care and transport focus model. With the increase in professionalism of paramedics and an uplift in assessment and clinical skills the modern paramedic is increasingly able to treat at home, direct patients with alternative care pathways and avoid transportation to overburdened Emergency Departments. Whilst there is some historical and cultural resistance to change there is a need for further development in clinical skills and a new perspective for the future Ambulance Service. This book brings together practitioners, managers, academics and provides a broad understanding of the major management issues in the UK Ambulance Service. It includes the history of the Ambulance Service, quality and risk management issues, commissioning, leadership, intra-operability and shape of the future ambulance service. The content will be of interest to students, practitioners and academics". Sir Keith Porter, Professor of Clinical Traumatology, University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, United Kingdom
Download or read book Report on Rescue 1122 written by and published by 1122. This book was released on with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of rescuing humans in man-made or natural disasters is marked with risk, and demands commitment, training, accuracy, timeliness and deliverance. The vision, scope and goals of RESCUE 1122 as life saving organization are all well-tethered into its organizational structure, training, resources and operational practices [R1]. However, the fast evolving dynamics of Pakistani society as in urbanization and its parallel rural co-exist have an interplay with ever increasing mandate of RESCUE 1122 to cover a wider ambit of activities. This confluence gives rise to a a new spectrum of problems ranging from traffic congestion in cities to a inertial nonacceptance in rural settings. Such retarding factors to RESCUE 1122 services undermine the operational preparedness and efficiency of the organization. The observership was undertaken with an avid focus on the technological aspects of RESCUE 1122 to identify areas where the technology could be optimized as such or if need be, a new suite of IT-solutions could be suggested to address emerging issues. This consolidated report takes a stepwise approach to understand intra-RESCUE 1122 technology-based departmental activities, the interfacing with external agencies including patients, hospitals, traffic wardens, and service providers such as TPL, IDS, ISPs, PTCL, and other government bodies. It then identifies the obvious and non-obvious ineptness through the personal exposure of the observer in rescue missions and through the feedback received from the staff. As the most important and final step, concrete recommendations are made which serve in two ways; a) to address the shortcomings of the operational areas in order to meet desired goals in a better way, and b) to augment altogether new dimensions to the services which compliment the existing ones. Extraneous to the purview, but highly relevant problems of national significance including terrorism and sabotage and power crisis are also taken into broader consideration to make the report adept to incumbent and more strategic national needs.
