St John Ambulance North Belfast Ambulance Unit had a quieter weekend of duties compared to the long days of last weekend's Feile. We worked with our colleagues at St. John Ambulance NI Antrim. at the Grand Prix Motocross, Nutts Corner. We covered the Funday at Allstate and John and AJ had fun at the Belfast Ukulele Jam (well, we think they did)!! 🪕🎧
Monday Training -
And so it was back at the Unit for Monday training. It's so important to keep our skills current and levels high, but not easy for our trainers to think of ways to keep us interested week in and week out. Well, we can honestly say they're doing a great job 👍😄 As we continue with our 'Trauma' theme we held our 'Team Olympics' 😂
Four teams, 3 exercises all based around SAFELY getting a casualty into the ambulance using various pieces of equipment 🚑 and finishing with a round of CPR. The quickest team to finish were the winners and penalties were given for mistakes!! Well done to team 'Munster' who won the challenge 🥉🎉 A big thanks to Aaron, Chris, Phil, Mark and Jaele for keeping us right! 👍🚑😂
