ProMed has considerable expertise in planning and delivering the medical, ambulance and first aid cover to all types of events.

Event planning
The importance of having the right medical expertise cannot be over-emphasised. A landmark legal judgement in 1999 highlighted that failure to provide appropriate medical assistance at an event broke the duty of care. Event organisers are urged to begin discussing their events at an early stage so that we can ensure the right level of professional care is provided to your clients, staff and public attending.
Our project managers are familiar with The Purple Guide. Many can even remember ‘The Event Safety Guide: A Guide to Health, Safety and Welfare‘ (HSG 195), before it was superceded in 2014! They also know the current guidance on the Health and Safety Executive website, quite well, too.
From the start of production planning, we’ll be involved, preparing the medical plans required for your event to operate safely.
Our key personnel have experience in liaising with local NHS ambulance services and in attending Safety Advisory Group (SAG) meetings. We not only represent our own interests as a medical provider, but also your interests as the event production & promotion organisations.
