What Our Clients Say

Feedback from our clients is invaluable to us, as it not only helps us constantly improve our services but also highlights the exceptional dedication and skill of our amazing teams. Here are just some of the lovely comments we have received.

 I had a mare and needed security last minute for an event, the staff arrived on time, they had been fully briefed, and was ready to handle any situation. I dealt with Ben initially for the booking and then had a guy called Andy at the event, they both filled me with confidence and allowed me to concentrate on the event.
Sheila
Venue Manager
Was on my first night out in a long time to be met by two kind doormen. As some one who dose not go out often it was nice to feel welcomed and safe in a venue. The door staff dealt with a situation for my friend very quickly and professionally. I could not recommend them enough.
Charlie
Event Attendee
Thankyou so much for coming along to history in the park this year. Having you there made such a difference to me and allowed me to truly enjoy my event rather than running logistics all weekend.

Event Organiser

Frequently Asked Question

Here are some frequently asked questions to help you find the information you need.

In the UK, event medical cover is typically structured in a tiered system, with the level of personnel and resources deployed dependent on a comprehensive risk assessment of the event (often guided by the “Purple Guide” for outdoor events and the “Green Guide” for sports grounds). Here’s a general breakdown of the different levels of medical personnel you might find at an event:

Doctors (GMC Registered): Doctors with a license to practice, often with experience in emergency medicine or pre-hospital care, provide the highest level of medical expertise on-site. They can perform advanced medical procedures, administer a full range of medications, and make critical decisions regarding patient care and referral to hospital.

First Aiders: These are individuals with basic first aid qualifications (e.g., Emergency First Aid at Work or First Aid at Work). They can provide immediate basic life support and manage minor injuries or illnesses, often being the first point of contact for a casualty.

First Responders / Emergency Care Assistants (ECAs) / Associate Ambulance Practitioners (AAPs): These roles have a higher level of training than basic first aiders (often to qualifications like FREC 3 or FREC 4). They can administer a broader range of first aid, including basic life support, oxygen therapy, and sometimes certain medications, and are capable of more advanced assessments. They often work alongside or in support of paramedics.

Ambulance Technicians (IHCD or equivalent): These professionals possess a significant level of pre-hospital care training, enabling them to assess, treat, and transport patients. They can administer a wider range of medications and perform more complex interventions than first responders.

Paramedics: These are regulated healthcare professionals registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). They are highly trained clinicians who can assess, diagnose, treat (including administering a wide range of medications), and transport patients, often acting as the lead clinician on scene. They can manage serious medical emergencies and trauma.

Nurses (NMC Registered): Registered nurses (RNs) with relevant experience (e.g., in emergency departments or acute care) may be deployed at events. Their scope of practice is broad, encompassing assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing care.

These comprehensive frameworks inform our detailed risk assessments and planning, allowing us to accurately advise on the optimal levels of security, medical, and fire safety personnel and equipment, guaranteeing a safe and compliant environment for everyone.

At Specialist Event Services Ltd, we understand the critical importance of robust insurance coverage. We hold comprehensive policies to ensure peace of mind for both our clients and our team.
