New Community Response Unit Launched In Clare

Today on Morning Focus, we were joined in studio by Padraig Lordan, Ennis based Paramedic and Mark Callanan, Community Engagement Officer, National Ambulance Service, Western Region as the Ruan/Dysart Community first response group was launched this month.

Community groups such as those can have a huge impact in saving lives in areas, particularly when ambulance cover is stretched. They do excellent work and the organisers in Ruan/Dysart are keen to demonstrate how important they can be. If any community group is interested in setting up a Community First Responder group in their area, you can email Mark on [email protected]
