Since May 2023 we have been supplying medics every day to the famous Shakespeare's Globe theatre.
In September this year through to February 2024 we will be returning to the hugely popular Christmas Lapland UK event held in Ascot. This will be our 9th consecutive year providing cover to the event.
We provide fully trained medical staff exclusively from an emergency service background, and being a small business, we don’t carry the expensive overheads many larger companies do. This allows us to offer competitive rates without sacrificing on quality. After all there is a good reason we are still providing medical cover to our first ever client, almost ten years on.
For each event we allocate a dedicated Event Manager who acts as a point of contact and will be on site regularly. This means that should any issues arise, we will be able to deal with them immediately.
While having staff members trained in first aid is beneficial, it may still be necessary to have additional medical coverage for an event. Trained staff can provide initial assistance in case of minor incidents, but depending on the size and nature of the event, they may not be sufficient to handle larger emergencies or multiple medical situations simultaneously.
Having professional medical personnel and resources on-site can ensure a more comprehensive and immediate response to various medical scenarios, enhancing the overall safety and well-being of event attendees. The decision to have additional medical coverage should be based on a thorough risk assessment and the specific requirements of the event.
When formulating a risk assessment, there are many factors to consider such as the number of guests attending, audience profile, previous incidents, specific hazards such as an ice rink or pyrotechnics and whether or not the event is indoors or outdoors.
It is important to note that in most instances, First Aid at Work is not an appropriate qualification for event medical cover.
Please contact us for further details and check the HSE website for information about legislation.
Our founder and many of our staff are professional firefighters and we have worked on numerous film and TV sets. We offer every type of service from a single firefighter carrying extinguishers to water bowsers, a 4x4 firefighting vehicle and even fully equipped 12 tonne fire engines.
