Verwood Community First Responders

 

The South Western Ambulance Service Charity has been awarded a grant from Tesco’s Bags of Help scheme, which will enable the Verwood Community First Responders (CFRs) to enhance the level of patient care they deliver by purchasing an emergency lifting chair.

​

Equipping a Community First Responder with an emergency lifting chair will enable early assistance to a patient who has experienced a non-injury fall, and reduce potential complications associated with long lies.  This will also help ensure the most appropriate allocation of emergency services resources.
