The similarities between aviation and medicine are often oversold but we do share a reliance on humans working in high reliability teams. Thank you to RCSI SIM staff and amazing Emergency Medicine students for listening to my rants. #humanfactors

This brave aviator taught me how to fly this thing a quarter of a century ago. He has fully recovered from the trauma. Great kick-off to Centenary celebrations this week. #IAC100

Another great day in RCSI SIM. Amazing skills, and excellent teamwork. I appreciate them listening to an outsider who thinks Rocuronium is the name of a Eurovision Song Contest entrant.

Great work by the staff of #AnCosantoir and Comdt Pete Smyth, marking 100 years of Irish military aviation. They even persuaded the (allegedly) busy Cathal O'Donnell to put pen to paper on our relationship with the National Ambulance Service 🇮🇪🚑 in the last 10 years of EAS.

10 years ago we flew the first EAS mission. Seems like yesterday. Since then thousands have benefited from the partnership between Air Corps and National Ambulance Service 🇮🇪🚑. Teamwork making the dream work!

Pilot Essentials: A giant watch to let people know you are a pilot… in case you failed to squeeze it into the first 10 seconds of the conversation.

Chuffed to help judge TUH #sepsis Sim Wars. 5 amazing multidisciplinary teams. Great to see such a focus on #humanfactors during simulation including a leadership masterclass from TUH ED Congrats to Urology who were No.1 (pun intended)

Our new Crew Resource Management Instructors, a mix of young (and old!) pilots together with Garda and Paramedics delivered their first initial course this week. Law enforcement, medicine and aviation relies on humans working in high consequence environments. #humanfactors

Neonate team running a checklist before a NNTP transfer. Always a pleasure working with these teams…great leadership, comms and SOPs = able to absorb last minute changes of plan without a fuss.

A great day yesterday at our Safety Stand Down. We heard from experts in finance, motorsports and aviation.. 3 industries sharing a common drive to survive. Thanks to Eilish O Tuama, Grace Meade and @_markgallagher for their fascinating insights. #safety #performance

So I deliver a 50 slide presentation on Leadership to Mater Hospital Trauma EM SpRs only to have @drfranok follow me and send the message home better in one slide!

Great day out with this lady on Saturday at the Scouting Air Activities day. Being out with her always brings a smile to my face… love you 😘. (Also in picture: Daughter)

Call out to all exers… No3 is celebrating 60 years of beating the air into submission.

Great day yesterday at the Belgian Air Force🇧🇪 safety stand down talking about risk. The Belgian beer and chocolate never disappoints.

Some great ‘Information Processing’ by the RCSI EM Simulation teams yesterday. It’s the bedrock to sound Decision Making. It’s like drinking water from a hose sometimes and we need tools to actively manage the red side and promote the green side.

I’ve had 27 years (so far) of amazing experiences with the best people. A great wee team to be part of!
