We can't give medical advice on social media. In an emergency dial 999. Non-emergency dial 111 West Midlands Ambulance Service University NHS Foundation Trust (WMAS) covers a geographical area of approximately 5,000 square miles and serves a population of over 5.5 million people living in Shropshire, Herefordshire, Worcestershire, Coventry & Warwickshire, Staffordshire and the Birmingham & the Bla

ck Country conurbation. As the region’s emergency ambulance service, we respond to around 4,000 ‘999’ calls each day. To manage that level of demand, we employ approximately 6,000 staff and operate from 15 fleet preparation hubs across the region. In addition, the Trust runs the NHS 111 service in the West Midlands (except Staffordshire) and answers in excess of 20,000 calls every week. We also provide non-emergency patient transport services across some parts of the region for those patients who require non-emergency transport to and from hospital and who are unable to travel unaided because of their medical condition or clinical need. We complete approximately 1,000,000 non-emergency patient journeys each year.

This Men's Health Month, Paramedic and SALS Advisor, Andy has an important message.

In emergency services, we're often focused on supporting others, but it's just as important to look after yourself.

Talking about mental health isn't always easy, but reaching out for support can make a real difference. Whether it's a colleague, friend, family member or one of the support services available through WMAS, you don't have to face things alone.

💚If you're struggling, support is available.
💚If someone doesn't seem themselves, ask how they're doing.
💚Let's continue to look out for one another.
