May I suggest that you check what kit the crash team will require and
what they will bring with them, thus your answerer

Dear All,
I am in the process of risk assessing our resus trolley, following the
discovery of a number of out of date items. Our department is on the
main
hospital site, but not directly attached to the hospital. We currently
have
a large resus trolley, full emergency drugs kit, defib, cannulation,
CVP,
trachesotomy set, fliuds, blood giving set, O2 cylinde, intubation kit,
No
suction. In the year I have been here, we have had a few 'fainters', and
in
the four years my boss has been here, nothing more serious.
I am aware of the 'Murphy's Law'theory, the day we decide to downsize
the
trolley, the full blown CA will occur.
We can call the crash team, but I'm not sure how quickly they would find
us!
Any info on what you have in place, or not would be most helpful,
Many thanks
Tracy Bluestone
