The Economics of EMS
Q: So, before we jump into things, Matt, obviously 40 years, what got you into EMS in the first place?
Matt recounts his father's cardiac arrest, volunteering with a fire department, and how those early experiences motivated him to pursue EMS as a career.
Rethinking Extrication
Q: Why did you start the EXIT project and what gap did you see in existing extrication practice?

Rethinking Extrication
Q: What size facility is the hospital Tim Nutbeam works at, and how does that shape his perspective on pre-hospital care?
The facility is a major trauma center serving Cornwall and Devon; its volume and cross-disciplinary exposure give Tim a dual perspective on pre-hospital care and hospital-based management, highlighting how rapid transport and in-hospital treatments interplay.

They can reach Foundation 1023 through the website and use the contact form or request resources; the organization also provides guidance and resources for peer support training and connecting with culturally competent therapists.
