Fighting hypothermia in the EMS

These scantily clad men in the snow looking so friendly have a serious background. They are colleagues from the #Charkiv ambulance service who are practising how to prevent hypothermia in patients. Heat loss is one of THE main dangers for injured people and can quickly tilt the balance in between life and death. Teaching and training in this area is vital. From blizzard blankets and heat packs for hands and feet to self-heating rescue blankets, we procure the material that can save lives in the hands of these colleagues. We can only do this with your help! Every euro goes a long way.
