Ep 262 - GoodSam Update with Mark Wilson at LTC 2024
In this episode, Iain Beardsell and Natalie May speak with neurosurgeon Mark Wilson at the London Trauma Conference. Mark provides an in-depth look at the evolution of the GoodSAM app over the past decade. Initially designed to alert off-duty trained individuals to assist in emergencies, particularly for cardiac arrests and impact brain apnoea, the app has grown to include applications in police services, public health during COVID-19, and community volunteer efforts.
It employs advanced technology, such as real-time video guidance and AI, to offer immediate assistance and improve outcomes in medical emergencies and other crises.
Mark's insights shed light on how this innovative platform is saving lives and transforming emergency and public response systems worldwide.
