A well run, challenging but enjoyable course. Heavily scenario based with lots of opportunities to lead a team and work on those non-technical skills. Would definitely recommend.

If you are in #Aberdeenshire / #Stonehaven please consider your safety when near the coast. Strong winds and tides, coupled with large waves and high tides are causing damage and danger to those nearby. 🚨@HMCoastguard, @fire_scot, @PSOSAbershire @PoliceScotland are deployed.

An induction with a difference! Winch Paramedic Ben Jacobs was welcomed with open arms and (simulated) open wounds when he joined the Sumburgh SAR base. With a splash of fake blood the team helped Ben train for his Clinical Competency Check. #teamwork #searchandrescue
