Frequently Asked Questions

How does this service work?

Quite simply, if you are an event medical provider and you are looking for a Paramedic, then I should be able to help!


I generally don't quote for events myself - if you are an event organiser looking for this, then please do get in touch and I will put you in touch with an industry partner who can help. I generally only offer a 'bolt-on' service for other established companies.


Whether it is just another Paramedic to make up the numbers, a specialist presence such as Urgent or Critical Care, or a full-on self-sufficient Resuscitation/Critical Care area that can be dropped straight in to your existing plans, I can probably help!


Base pricing depends on whether or not your insurance will cover me, and of course how long you want me for. I do charge extra for some additional services but I have tried to make my pricing as clear as possible on here. I of course value ongoing working relationships over a 'quick buck', so if you are in a position to offer recurrent work then I am happy to negotiate pricing.


That being said, I am an experienced senior clinician, so I won't work for peanuts!


Most great things start with a conversation so please do get in touch - I look forward to working with you.

Do you offer credit?

I don't offer anyone credit until I get to know and trust you - please don't take offence at that. I, like many in the industry, have previously lost out, so this is non-negotiable.


Once we have worked together a few times without issue, then I am more than happy to discuss credit options. In any case, I will not offer any longer than 30 day terms.

Do you offer a discount for shorter shifts?

Generally no, as attending a 6 hour event likely still takes up most of my day. That being said, if you are willing to book me for several events, particularly if they are close to our base (HP22 4DQ) then I would be happy to negotiate.


If you are planning several shorter days in a row, then please do get in touch as I am usually happy to negotiate the day rate if I am staying on site/close by.

What about mileage and overnight costs?

As a general rule, I charge mileage if the round trip distance is more than 60 miles. The rate does fluctuate with the cost of fuel and is kept current on our booking system. If you need me to tow anything then I may need to charge extra to cover that.


Overnight expenses include accomodation and sustenance: generally I look to book overnight accomodation once the journey time is over 90 minutes each way (or 60 minutes if back-to-back days). Additionally, if I would need to set off before 5am to get to you then I will typically book local accomodation the night before. Usually I will book the nearest Travelodge/Premier Inn and charge that back to you (no markup). Sustenance is charged at up to £25 per night, depending on whether breakfast and/or dinner are provided.


I am very happy to camp on-site if this is an option - depending on what facilities there are (and time of year) I can bring a tent or caravan.

Why book Innes?

When you book with Eaton Medical Services you will receive the following as standard:

Senior Clinical Oversight

When you book Innes, you get an experienced frontline clinician, with experience in both urgent and critical care settings. Innes can provide clinical leadership for your event and will happily liaise with external service providers on your behalf. 

Emergency Medications

Innes will arrive with all of the necessary emergency medications carried by UK ambulances, including controlled drugs and Penthrox, plus a range of common 'over the counter' medications.

Medical Equipment

Innes has access to the very best medical equipment, allowing him to effectively manage a huge range of emergency scenarios.
  • Full ALS kit, including EZ-IO & endotracheal intubation
  • Trauma kit equivalent to that carried by UK ambulances
  • Zoll X Series patient monitor
  • ParaPAC Plus 310 CPAP/ventilator
  • Laerdal suction unit
  • A range of basic dressings and wound closure options

Documentation

All patient interactions are recorded electronically (using Salus3). Data from this can be easily  shared (subject to GDPR restrictions) after the event to assist with your internal auditing and reporting processes. Patients can be provided with either an electronic or printed copy of their notes, as can onward service providers. 

Extras

Treatment Tent

Outdoor events usually benefit from some form of shelter for medical use. Innes can provide a treatment tent/shelter for your event if required.


There are three sizes to choose from:

 

  • 3m x 3m
  • 3m x 6m
  • 4m x 8m

 


The following equipment can also be provided:

 

  • Chairs
  • Tables
  • Folding beds
  • Lighting
  • Heating
  • Fridge
  • Mains power

 

Please note that Innes does not currently own, or have the means to transport, a trolley bed.

i-STAT Analyser

Athletic events, festivals, and events with a large transient population may need to offer some form of critical care provision. 
The i-STAT blood gas and biochemistry analyser allows a new level of pre-hospital care to be provided to the sickest of patients. 
The following tests can be performed anywhere, with results available in under 3 minutes:
  • Blood pH
  • pO2/pCO2
  • HCO3
  • Base Excess
  • Lactate
  • Na/K/Cl
  • Anion Gap
  • iCa
  • Urea/Creatanine 
  • Glucose
  • Hb/Hct

Please note that the test cartridges used in the i-STAT come at significant cost, and a charge of £25 per cartridge is made in addition to supplying the unit (2 cartridges are typically used per patient)

Other tests (such as Troponin) are available - please contact Innes to discuss pricing for additional cartridges if required.

4x4

We do have a Volvo XC60 AWD vehicle available for events on less accessible terrain. This can be fitted with magnetic 'Paramedic' signage if required. 
Innes is happy to convey patients around the event footprint, but they need to be stable and ambulatory enough to safely travel sitting in the back of a car.
The vehicle is not insured as an ambulance, so we cannot convey to hospital, or use any blue lights on the public highway. 
The daily charge is to cover any cleaning costs, as fundamentally this is our family car!

Cycle Response

If you would like Innes to cover a wide area (not accessible to a vehicle), he can arrive equipped with his bicycle!
Fitted with medical panniers, Innes will still be able to carry full ALS equipment, including medical gases.
Our bikes are fitted with blue lights and a siren system for making progress through congested areas. 

Don't worry, I don't wear Lycra...

Large Scale Events

Whether it's an airshow, cross-country equestrian event, or marathon, we can help.

We work closely with a number of well established and trusted national event medical providers, many of whom are CQC registered.
