The North West Air Ambulance Charity (NWAA) has reached a significant milestone in its ‘Blood on Board’ project, bringing blood transfusion to critically ill and injured patients across the region.
The service administered blood products to its 100th pre-hospital patient in March 2021, after introducing the capability to perform pre-hospital blood transfusions by the road and in the field in January, 2019.
NWAA attends over 2,000 missions each year, having attended 992 in Greater Manchester from March, 2020 to March, 2021.
THE STANDARD
OPINION
International Women’s Day is a time when we celebrate women; our mothers, wives, sisters, aunties, nieces and colleagues. We celebrate their achievements and act towards improving their lives.
This year we are marking the day under the global theme Choose to challenge’. It aims to capture the need for us all to explore solutions to the challenges that women face.
In reflecting on the healthcare challenges that are specific to women, we are acutely aware that many factors affect women’s access to healthcare, especially during childbirth. We still lose too many women due to preventable causes during pregnancy and child birth. While the global average of maternal mortality is 211 per 100,000, Kenya’s maternal mortality is on average 342 per 100,000.
