On this weeks episode I sat down with Clinical Nurse Consultant Daniel Van Vorst to discuss the MTP (massive transfusion protocol). Daniel is an esteemed emergency nurse with over 12 years of experience in a large  tertiary hospital.  Within the podcast Dan spoke about the role of MTP, indications , challenges, and the benefits of having a blood coordinator role  during major resuscitations. Dan also unpacks an amazing case, and talks about the benefits of administering blood early and how the MTP can save lives. Dan also opens up and lets us know what motivates him and what keeps him fresh after working in a high stress environment .
