  19. WEATHER REPORT

    Everyone has their version of the body’s weather.

    Mine is life after a major #stroke.

    Someone else’s may be deep grief, illness, #fear, poverty, war, loss, or confusion.

    I can be kind and supportive, but I do not have to climb inside every #storm.

    That is not indifference.

    It is refusing entanglement.

    I can care without becoming a #rescuer, investigator, #priest, therapist, or #emergencyservices

    #Kindness does not require #panic.

    Sometimes the clearest love is simply this:

    “I need do nothing except not to interfere.”

  28. Best practice examples from the emergency services!‼️ 🚑

    I really enjoy watching these kinds of emergency response videos, whether they’re from the fire brigade, an ambulance or the police, and I’m always delighted to see German motorists making proper way for emergency vehicles with their blue lights on by forming that emergency corridor. 🤩

    It’s good to know that forming an emergency corridor is an essential part of driving test training in Germany. 😃

  29. I'm surprised the #officer actually got sent to #prison for this #RTC - but in *all* training for blue light response #drivers ( #Police , #Fire and #Ambulance ) there is a *big* warning not to let "red mist" take over (its mentioned a lot in my copy of Roadcraft, which although intended for blue light drivers is also available to civilians)

    I've seen a couple of incidents recently here in Suffolk where RPU officers have made sketchy manoeuvres which could *easily* have gone bad for themselves and others (particularly one where they appeared to be trying to stop a vehicle, luckily the driver was compliant) - seems to be caused by lack of resources and them being sent out single crewed and spread too thinly,..

  30. 🔧 So this "not-a-medical-device" wants to be your #hemodialysis BFF, but it can't even find the internet? 🤦‍♂️ No worries, just remember: in an emergency, dial 911 and pray your "secure ecosystem" doesn't decide to take a nap. 🚨🔌

  31. CW: snek

    Dilarang mengetuk cermin (MY) = do not knock on glass (EN)

    Which seems like good advice, given what lurks behind it!

    At a rural fire station somewhere in Malaysia, they keep some #snakes for training the officers and also to show locals about how to identify snakes and how to stay safe as many are venomous)

    Folk are encouraged to stand clear and call 999 / 112 rather than attempt to catch them themselves (this works the same as in UK and the calls from mobiles are geolocated if possible using #GNSS)
