South East Coast Ambulance Service has come a long way – from a service that transported patients to hospital to one that now transports specialist treatment to the patient.  Click here to see our short DVD and let our staff show you what their work involves and tell you how you can get involved.

Swine Flu

The second wave of the flu pandemic is under way. Current figures suggest that so far the virus is spreading more slowly than could have been the case.  This is good news and gives added importance to the work being done to get the vaccine to as many people as possible. 

The first batches of licensed vaccine are now in the NHS distribution network and it is anticipated that the amount of vaccine available to the NHS will increase rapidly over the coming weeks. 

We are currently working with our health partners and delivering a programme for vaccinating staff against the virus, so that we are able to continue to provide a normal service to you and our patients during this outbreak.

We have already provided staff with a wealth of information on the vaccine and why they should protect themselves and their patients from the virus.  You can view an example of this material by clicking on this link.

In the meantime if you suspect that you have swine flu visit www.nhs.uk  or call the swine flu information line on 0800 513 513.  Only contact your GP if you have used these information sources first.
