Abstract
JRCALC App - The Joint Royal Colleges Ambulance Liaison Committee (JRCALC) guidelines are often referred to as the prehospital ‘Bible’. They have been the ‘go to’ guidelines for all UK NHS Ambulance services since 2019, although were first created in the early 2000s, with three annual updates produced since 2013. For those that were in practice in the late noughties, you will recall carrying around a well-weathered JRCALC pocketbook which would be pulled out prior to administration of medications or to check an algorithm. The application (app) is essentially the full guidelines accessed through a reasonably easy to-use app. Abstract published with permission.
