Welcome back after a long break! Today the normal crew is joined by a couple other fellow (bout to be graduated) students, Jasmine and Angus, as we discuss ways paramedics and other HCW's can build resilience to ensure long, healthy and full-filling careers. 

Inspired by our final year assessment, we each trialled a research based technique that MAY improve our resilience.  
What did we find?? Have a listen and find out! 

As always, we would love feedback and to hear your experiences of any of the techniques mentioned in the podcast.

Enjoy!
SS Team. 

Kicking off a new form of episode where we discuss different disease pathologies, today we chat about seizures..

In the coming episodes we'll attempt to provide short summaries on pathophysiology and prehospital treatment of many different conditions which will hopefully be helpful for revision or those looking to gain some new knowledge.

We really enjoy doing these episodes and would love to hear what conditions/disease types you would like to hear about in the future. 
Cheers.

About to embark on our second placement, we reflect on what worked/didn't work last time, share some whacky and fun stories as well as discuss some cool tactics to improve your next placement experience.  Stay tuned for more to come and please reach out if you would like to hear something or have feedback.

We speak to Dietician Nathan Cook from @TheCooksCommunity about how to best eat on shift, vegan/vegetarian options, sustainable foods, and animal ethics.

Join us as we go rural with Brandon from Ambulance Victoria. If you have graduated or are currently about to graduate, be sure to tune in to get a feel of what you may be in for if you decide to go rural with a state ambulance service in Australia.

Abbie and Danika discuss how they juggle studies, finances, family, relationships, and their mental health.

We love them, we hate then. OSCEs are a part of every medical student's life. Join us this week with guest speakers Iszijah Jones and Rhys Hillsley where we will explore the tips and tricks to tackling this love-hate relationship. 

This year students have been pushed to their limits by an unprecedented global event, yet somehow this event has brought us all closer together in a unique way. We have a very contemporary and relatable topic coming up for episode two. This week I will be joined by guests Sarah Kelly and Andre Perkins, discussing the impact that Covid-19 has had on being a student paramedic. 

How can you make the most out of your first placement? Listen in for tips and tricks on preparing for and taking advantage of your time out on road during placement with guest speakers Rhys and Drew.
