Nightclub Events

Integrated Medical Services are dedicated to providing custom solutions designed for specific environments and with our years of experience in the industry, you can trust us to get it right every time. Emergency medical services are not something on which you want to take a chance, which is why so many of our clients refuse to deal with anyone else when it comes to events medical cover in the UK.
​
Whilst people may not think there is a specific need for medical staff to be in attendance at Nightclubs, the opposite has in fact been proven on many occasions; certain club owners who have chosen to enlist the provision of medical cover at their venue on busier evenings have seen a dramatic fall in the number of NHS ambulances having to attend. This instantly reduces pressure on the venue and its staff, who are able to continue with their designated roles, rather than being called away to treat and care for a patient until medical assistance arrives. It also creates less disturbance to the club as a whole, as incidents are able to be dealt with in a much more discreet, timely manner.
Presenting casualties may be suffering from a number of illnesses/injuries including, but not limited to, severe intoxication (alcohol or drugs), loss of blood, loss of consciousness, or head injury and, in cases such as these, medical intervention at the earliest possible opportunity allows that patient the best possible chance of a full recovery.
​
Our Nightclub Medics also offer an incredibly valuable drop in advice service; offering confidential and completely non-judgemental advice in first aid, alcohol, drugs and sexual health.

Our Service
We are able to offer a bespoke service to club owners/managers, taking away the stress and often time-consuming hard work that is involved in organising medical provision at their event. Our experienced team know just the right questions to ask to ensure an accurate initial risk assessment is undertaken, which will then allow our clinical leads to determine the correct level of resources needed. This risk assessment takes a variety of factors into account, including the venue/location in which the event is being held, previous casualty data, and also the event’s demographic. With our dedicated expert team on hand, we can produce a finalised quote within a very short space of time, and all at no cost to the client.
Planning
Should you, as a client wish to proceed with that quote, we can also assist in the planning of your event by attending SAG meetings if required and by completing a finalised medical risk assessment and medical plan, to ensure your event is resourced accurately and is in line with the latest Health & Safety regulations and Purple Guide recommendations. We fully understand that circumstances can change, and so a re-evaluation of the risk assessment may be required at some point. This is no problem at all; we will work with you in making any amendments needed to ensure that medical cover is, once again, suitable to your needs. This may result in the level of resources being altered, which may also cause an alteration to the original cost, however, this will be discussed fully with you and confirmed at the time.
Post-event
Following on from our team’s shift, we are happy to attend any debrief meetings. We also provide you with a detailed medical report, including a comprehensive (anonymised) breakdown of the number of patients treated, the types of illnesses/injuries sustained throughout the shift, and also any feedback and recommendations from the team who attended.
