During these challenging times TLTP Medical have been working extremely hard through safe measures to ensure patients continue to be looked after and their care needs are met. 

All of our frontline healthcare workers have shown immense dedication and have gone above and beyond their duty of care throughout the Coronavirus pandemic. In particular two of our healthcarers Monica and Alexandre who have been supporting the NHS East Kent Home Support Team for some time, responded to an incident whilst on duty last Tuesday 6th May. 

They witnessed a road traffic accident whilst they were driving to their evening patient visit. An individual swerved off the road and hit a pole. Monica and Alexandre stopped along with a taxi driver and called 999. They found the driver of the vehicle unable to breath and then he stopped breathing altogether.

The 999 operator told them to get the man out of the car, lay him flat and to start CPR until the ambulance arrived. They duly followed the advice and Alexandre completed CPR for approximately 10 minutes until the ambulance crew arrived and took over. The gentleman was defibrillated and took him into the ambulance breathing.

After providing a statement to the police who attended the incident, they then carried on to their last patient visit who was receiving end of life care. Given the shock they were both in, they were extremely brave and kept calm throughout the situation. They both composed themselves together and proceeded with taking care of their patient.

Staffing Manager, Jane May said 'You should and I know that you will be incredibly proud of Monica and Alexandre and both the service and KCHFT are both grateful and impressed by their actions.'

Lisa Camp, Managing Director for TLTP Medical responsed 'Our frontline staff have worked so hard and to hear that they have done that and gone the extra mile makes me exteremly proud. We are very lucky to have staff who care so much, are reliable, passionate and dedicated.'
