In this conversation, we will examine how trauma is both managed and reported on throughout Scotland. The Scottish Ambulance Service (SAS) receives over 1.5 million calls a year and responds to over 500,000 emergency incidents per year. In the episode, we will discuss The Scottish Trauma Audit Group (STAG) as a national audit group within the Scottish National Audit Programme of Public Health Scotland. STAG measures and is tasked to improving the quality of care, overall experience, and long-term outcome of patients with significant injuries throughout Scotland. We will also examine the Advanced Practitioner in Critical Care scheme in Scotland and how it has developed, how it is managed and some of the recent adaptations according to need throughout Scotland. We will also look at the need for key interventions when critical care is not available.
To do this I am speaking with Martin Esposito. Martin is a Consultant Paramedic for Major Trauma within SAS. In this role, he is the lead for all the major trauma work within SAS and also line manages the Advanced Practitioners in Critical Care. As well as trauma, is has a special interest in Pain Management and is the SAS lead for pain management as well as an Honorary Tutor at Cardiff University. More information on STAG can be found here: https://www.stag.scot.nhs.uk/
We look forward to seeing you in 2024. Happy New Year!
