Welcome back to the Wheels Up Podcast (link to podcast below). Today Troy and Ben are joined by Dustin Osborne of the Queensland Police Force.

In this episode, they discuss “Best dressed bystanders,” the feeling of uselessness, new-born twins, hitting your capacity in training, and identifying your own shortcomings in first aid. The episode also covers adipose tissue/man boobs versus breasts, the Special Operations Medical Association, the Australian Tactical Medical Association, Police Medicine, Tac-Life portable defibrillators, and working groups. These are just some of the topics covered in this episode of the Wheels Up Podcast. Troy and Ben really enjoyed catching up with Dustin Osborne, who has truly been a trailblazer in the Police Medical First Responder space.

By no means do Police ever want to claim the title of Paramedic, however, just like their frontline emergency service colleagues in the Ambulance Services, Police are often first on scene to traumatic and catastrophic medical emergencies.

In this episode of the Wheels Up Podcast, hosts Troy Claydon and Ben Hosking discuss how Dustin Osborne transformed the Queensland Police Force’s capabilities in Police Medicine to provide life-saving care during the golden hour.
