S6 Ep5: Paediatric Mini-Series: Grief and Debrief for Difficult Paediatric Jobs

🩺 Episode Overview: In this episode of the Paediatric Mini-Series, we step away from clinical procedures to explore something just as vital: grief and debrief after difficult paediatric cases. Whether it's a tragic outcome, a confronting resuscitation, or an emotionally charged encounter, these experiences leave a mark. We talk candidly about the importance of reaching out, how to support each other, and how to create a culture where psychological safety and structured debriefing are the norm—not the exception. Even the most experienced clinicians are not immune. Grief and emotional residue don’t disappear with time—they need space, validation, and care. 🧰 Tools & Resources: DTFB: 'Every Resus Needs a Debrief' DFTB: 'Breaking Bad News' The Ambulance Staff Charity Beyond Blue Mind Employee Assistance Programs (individual organisations) ✅ Don’t forget to: Subscribe & share Rate and review Follow us on Instagram: @thestudentparamedicpodcast #StudentParamedic #Paediatrics #Debrief #DifficultJobs #EMS #AndrewTagg #DontForgetTheBubbles #ParamedicPodcast #PrehospitalCare #Paramedic DISCLAIMER: All of the opinions of each individual on 'The Student Paramedic Podcast' are their own.
