Medical Cover
Medical support is one of the most important parts of any organised event. The safety of both spectators and participants is the responsibility of the organisation or venue managers.
We can provide;
- First Aid Cover
- Advanced First Aiders
- Emergency Medical Technicians
- State Registered Paramedic
- Registered Nurse
- Primary Care Medic
All staff are certified at their accredited skill level from HSE First Aid and Advanced First Aid to IHCD Emergency Medical Technician and IHCD, HPC State Registered Paramedic. We are happy to provide proof of the qualifications held by our members of staff. Valid CRB certificates are held by all of our Emergency Medical Technicians and State Registered Paramedics; a reassuring factor when an event involves children. M&s Medical services are also fully insured.
Although demand is less, we can also supply nurses and assist in supplying Doctors where required. All Paramedics are Motor Sport Association Registered. We can also provide complete medical management services including risk assessment and advice for your event.
