In this wide ranging conversation with Critical Care Paramedic Ben Watts and ED Consultant Iain Edgar we look at an overview of the TVAA service in providing critical care to the community. We also look at how expedition and military domains that they both practice can be used within the pre-hospital critical care environment. Other aspects of the conversation includes:  The patient target group and demographics of the service. Examine traditional vs emergent pre-hospital presentations that Iain and Ben have seen over their time in pre-hospital care. Interventions and decision-making and how these are approached within TVAA. Critical care training approaches, quality assurance and quality improvement within the service. Frontline staff engagement and how the service both encourage and incorporate them within the scheme. Innovations that the scheme has embedding and medium to long-term innovations that may improve the program Non-technical aspects of care Vs technical skills &amp; utilisation rates Incremental gains when orchestrating flash teams Personal learnings over the last &gt;2 years  I hope you enjoy the last of these critical care service review sessions with two insightful friends and colleagues.
