WHAT WE DO
At East Midlands Care Agency (EMCAS), we provide a comprehensive range of clinical support services to assist you or your loved ones with essential healthcare needs. While we do not replace ambulance services in emergency situations, our clinicians or trained responder and staff can offer basic clinical observations, triage, and even over-the-phone clinical advice, ensuring you receive the right care when needed.
We work closely with healthcare providers to facilitate timely referrals and advice, helping to minimize long wait times and ensuring appropriate treatment. EMCAS has successfully prevented unnecessary hospital admissions by arranging medication prescriptions through clients' GPs and facilitating referrals for falls prevention, occupational therapy assessments, and community district nursing. To find out how our clinical support can benefit you, contact us today.
Speak to us todayABOUT US
EMCAS has been formed by a team of qualified and experienced Ambulance Service personnel that are still actively working for Ambulance Service providers today. We have seen first-hand, the difficulties faced by our own patients and our colleagues when people require care and support at home and emergency social care services has not been available on the day.
We have witnessed how distressing it can be for people in our community and the ambulance staff to take people to hospital on the basis of social care requirements alone. We know how this can place added pressures on our ambulance response times and our local hospitals. We are aware of the weak points and the failures in other services within our community and we understand what matters most to service users and staff within this industry.
Our founding team here at EMCAS have seen the ups and the downs of community homecare, we pride ourselves in having that inside knowledge that enables us to provide that extra special touch, the person-centred approach and the understanding of how the wider health service works.
The needs and requirements of our service users is our number one priority but equally, we want our staff and our team to feel valued, to have a voice and to see their job as an enjoyable, safe and rewarding place to work.
We have seen the weak points and failures of other services within our community and we know what matters most to our patients and our staff. We want to provide a close knit, friendly and family orientated service that our clients and staff feel valued in.
Throughout our careers in the Ambulance Service, we attended countless emergency calls for falls in the elderly from care workers who have had the so called 'NO LIFT POLICY' enforced by thier employer. EMCAS aims to mitigate this policy by fully training all of our staff in falls injury assessment and the safe manual handling and lifting of people using some of the latest and safest equipment.
Did you know that in many incidents it is often advised that people are taken to hospital if they have been laid on the floor for more than 4 hours, even when no physical injury is obvious?
