Delighted to welcome the NHS England national 111 team to our base in Croydon today to show them our innovation and service improvements @londonambulance.nhs.uk @nhsenglandldn.bsky.social @nhsengland.bsky.social

The @aace.org.uk has welcomed @england.nhs.uk's 2025/26 priorities and operational planning guidance, which contains some important implications for all #ambulance services. >> aace.org.uk/news/aace-we...

Today is #HolocaustMemorialDay, 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau. We remember the millions murdered during the Holocaust, and all those targeted by prejudice and systematic persecution. We stand against all forms of hate and discrimination.

THREAD: In December 2024, we received a record number of 999 calls about the most serious injuries and illnesses such as cardiac arrests (Category 1). We're redoubling efforts to ensure we reach our sickest patients during an incredibly challenging winter period. 🧵🔽 1/5

Any #CallTheMidwife fans in the room? 👋 #TeamLAS are featured in a short @BBC documentary to promote the latest series, following 'The Real Midwives of Poplar'. Over a year ago, our clinicians helped to save Mum Abie and baby Lydia's lives after a traumatic birth 🔽 1/2

⁦‪Fantastic visit to East Birmingham‬⁩ today to see how they do care co-ordination. Lots of great ideas for us to take away an implement in London @londonambulance.nhs.uk Thank you very much Rob and Emma for organising.

This is a really important piece. We have to find a way to significantly reduce hospital handover delays so that next winter is better for patients and better for our staff than this one @londonambulance.nhs.uk

We're getting ready for another really busy weekend. Cold weather can be dangerous for older people, young children & those with underlying health conditions. Follow #NHS tips for staying well this winter. Save 999 for real emergencies. Use 111 Online for urgent health advice.

As reported by @news.sky.com, we are expecting an incredibly busy evening in London tonight, and have more resources on shift in our control rooms and more ambulances on the roads. Ashish Joshi joined us at Waterloo HQ and shared this update ⬇️

Congratulations to Darren Farmer, our Director of Ambulance Operations, who has been recognised in the New Year Honours list! Darren has served the people of #London for more than 30 years, and was awarded a prestigious King’s Ambulance Medal. Full story👇 www.londonambulance.nhs.uk/2024/12/30/d...

Who's ready for Part 2 of our 2024 #YearInReview? Scroll through the thread below for some memorable moments from July to December 🔽

This #NewYearsEve there will be 50 more ambulances on the road, more staff taking emergency calls, and more clinicians providing expert care over the phone. Please enjoy #NYE2024 responsibly and use 999 wisely so we can reach those who need us the most. buff.ly/4iVixKq

Really great that @londonambulance.nhs.uk staff have been asked once again to give advice to #TfL passengers on how to responsibly enjoy this festive season!

#TeamLAS has one of the highest rates of ‘hear and treat’ in the country with almost 23% of 999 calls currently being dealt with by a clinician over the phone without delaying an ambulance response. Full story: buff.ly/3ZNpQfM

Really enjoyed the visit and learnt so much - thank you very much for organising this @londonambulance.nhs.uk

The last few weeks really have been exceptionally busy so please follow this advice from Chief Paramedic Pauline

Delighted to welcome Jason and Anna the chair and chief executive of @aace-org.bsky.social to our Newham Emergency Operations Centre @londonambulance.nhs.uk today. Great conversations thank you!

Who’s adding #BBC #Ambulance to their weekend watchlist? The award-winning series where #TeamLAS staff and volunteers make life and death decisions in the capital. If you’ve already watched, let us know your most memorable moment 👇

This is such a moving story and Matthew is such a wonderful call handler and great ambassador for our values of Teamwork, Caring and Respect

#OperationChristmasPresent has lift off 🚀 Our #TeamLAS ‘elves’ led by Paramedic Nigel are calling on YOU to help spread some festive cheer by donating presents for children’s hospitals, hospices and refuges in the run up to #ChristmasDay Learn more buff.ly/4fMsPL6

Today we remember Jack Merritt and Saskia Jones who were killed in the #LondonBridge attack 5 years ago. Our thoughts are with all those affected by the attack.   We also pay tribute to all the emergency services involved in the response - on scene and in emergency control rooms.

Please use your ambulance service @londonambulance.nhs.uk wisely. Yesterday was one of the busiest days and the NHS needs your help to continue to use its services in the right way. Consider NHS111 and 111 online for more urgent health needs and keep the 999 lines free for emergencies. 🚑 🚑 🚑

Fascinating to see the London Ambulance Service joining Bluesky, using their NHS domain for verification. Here's hoping the rest of NHS England quickly follows suit. Welcome, LAS, you brilliant team! 👏💙

We're taking extra steps to save lives in #London this #winter 🔽 ✅ more #ambulances at peak times, and more staff taking 999 calls ✅ more #clinicians who can 'hear and treat' #patients over the phone, reducing pressure on A&E Help us by saving 999 for life-threatening emergencies 🙏 #UK #NHS
