The Trust also delivers community-focused education such as free CPR and defibrillator training and bleed kit awareness sessions to help the public develop lifesaving skills. As a research-active organisation, West Midlands Ambulance Service contributes to clinical research in areas such as stroke, cardiac arrest, trauma and breathing difficulties, using findings to support improvements in patient care and service delivery.
